  • Why is it……riddled with ads to use my thermostat

    By look I don't care
    It didn’t do it when I bought it, why - exactly- do you think it’s okay to change core functionality AFTER I can no longer return. That should be illegal
  • Downtime

    The app is down often. The developers can’t seem to keep up with Apple updates. Doorbell camera is useless when the app is offline.
  • Can’t log in

    The app was prompting me for weeks to verify my email, but always failed to render the verification page. Now it asks me to log into my account, but same problem. I keep thinking the devs will fix this, but apparently not
  • Ads on the Home Screen

    They went from showing an ad for their other products you don’t own like once a month to now every single time you launch the app. Incredibly intrusive and unpleasant
  • Eco Mode?

    Switching temp on app should trigger a “eco +” notification asking if you want to turn it off if it’s going to go past the limit that is set. Instead the app lets you change the temp and you come home to your setting not actually set. How does this make sense. I truly wish I bought a nest thermostat. I continue to not recommend ecobee to family and friends.

    Don’t migrate from generac app. All over the place looking for permissions. If you put a banner in the generac app advertising it as an upgrade. At least pretend to act like one
  • Once great brand now a sales platform

    The app now makes you repeatedly log in just to open the app. I’ve been using ecobee thermostats since 2016 and will no longer support this company. They went from a great app that did what you wanted to a clunky sales platform constantly wanting to sell you stuff. Disgusting.
  • inaccurate data, broken login

    This app is terrible. The weather data that is used for my ecobee devices is regularly inaccurate by 15-20 degrees. The login and auth features are filled with server errors. I am unable to verify my email and set up a 2fa code because of server errors. I worked for Okta for a year as an engineer; I know what I’m doing when it comes to this stuff. It’s amazing to me that the app experience is this bad. Thank goodness my thermostat integrates with HomeKit because I’ll avoid ecobee interfaces like the plague.
  • Annoying, nagging app

    1
    By AlanMcCarthy
    All I want this thermostat to do is control my temperature without collecting information about me, is that too much to ask? Everytime I open this app, it nags me about email addresses. Whats next, demanding my SSN? I am going to replace these modern horrors with old fashioned round thermostats
  • Nice UI / Terrible UX

    By Doom Mountain
    These updates, while visually are clean, from a usability standpoint your facing headwinds here. The UX is not intuitive. Sometimes less is more folks, do less things better than everything just ok.
