Crestron Mobile Pro App Reviews

It is very unbelievable to imagine how is it possible someone buy an app worth $100 buck and dont have it working full screen on their iPhone 5 until these days!! Shame on you guys!

It stoped to work with IOS 9.3.2 I hope Crestron issue a update as son as possible.

Update on iPhone did not work and my screen now goes blank. Do not download last update. Have reported problem 3 times and received no response.

Works good, but cost wayy too much!

Used to work like a charm! With all the new updates has really gone downhill. Screen doesnt rotate at all and is very unresponsive!

Crestron is normally known for flawless interaction but this app needs a little more friendly user interface and needs big issues fixed with presets on remote. Otherwise a nice gadget for 100$ worth the oohs and aahs you get!

App barely works after most recent ios update

There is a big difference between this version and the free one. After the first time connecting, it stores everything on your iPhone or iPod touch so that subsequent connections are super fast. Dropped connections are also very rare ...totally worth the $99 price! Thank you, Crestron, for making these improvements! Still hoping to see more in the future, such as gauges, sliders and clock.... what would be totally cool is if your Crestron processor could set its system time based on the iPhones clock... we do Yacht systems and this would be a useful feature to have when the boat moves into a different time zone (obviously pretty useless for a land-based system)

UPDATE: After trying to use this and troubleshooting for days here is what I have learned on my own; 1. Itouches and iPhones have horrible WIFI. When running the Crestron program there is a heartbeat being sent a bunch of times a second and if the iTouch misses one of these because of some interference the program tries to reconnect which takes 3 to 4 seconds which was happening at about once every minute. Annoying and unuseable!! 2. There is no timeout on the itouch WIfI but the Crestron program crashes Apples WIFI and shuts WIFI down, making the user press home and then wait for reconnect and reopen the Crestron program. 3. These are the same problems that I have with the free version and I will not recommend the use of these programs to my clients anymore since every time I have has ended in disappointment. Crestron doesnt seem to want to acknowledge that their app crashes the WIFI on the iPOD/iPhone causing the user to have to press the home button wait for WIFI reconnection then load the App again. I have used many different setting and I am using the recommended WAP from D-link. I cant be the only one with this problem. I have used wireshark to trace the network packets and noticed bad packets being sent from 4 different installations but that doesnt cause the crash. I have contacted Crestron multiple times and they say they never heard of this problem. Usually Crestron has great support but it seems that this app is just a side project and not important. Well it is important to the client that is trying to run a custom programmed show in front of hundreds of people. This product is too risky to use anywhere other then someones home when they dont care if it could crash at any given time.

Do not buy if youre running iOS 4

With the new Prodigy line Crestron has entered the entry level home automation playing field. So I am surprised at the little amount of reviews. I have the Crestron Prodigy system in my home and I use the Mobile Pro app on both my iPhone and iPad. It works great. Once connected and updated the commands both sending and receiving is instant. The initial update upon first connecting each time could be a little faster. It takes about 15-30 seconds to update. (Update is when the system is checking the status of each controlled item. Is the family room audio on, game room lights on, etc...) I have programmer additional items to the app like garage door open/close plus status of the garage doors. This is awesome if you leave the house and forget to close them. Only 5 stars because I think the "update" could be faster and I wish for more out of the box theme options.

Please update to retina display! Crashes on latest beta of iOS 5 BTW.

Been using this since March. Good speed, no noticeable negatives when compared to iPad version. Maybe faster somewhat. Since iOS beta 5 v5 (and through 7 so far) app crashes completely after GUI loads. Awaiting updated app!

Now that I updated to iOS 5 it wont reconnect after closing the app. I have to close out and then double click and force quit the app and then relaunch. Quite a pain and I told them this and the developer team kept ignoring me saying we will fix it in the final release--I noticed the problem and reported 3 weeks ago. Lame work by the development team.

Im totally impressed with this app. I never thought Id really need to control my home from my iPhone, but now that I can it makes my life way better. Adjusting the climate is a MUST HAVE. It came in handy this past summer with our wacky temperature changes…being able to see whos at the front door from anywhere is incredible. I get to keep tabs on where the kids are around the house too! I highly recommend this. Thanks Crestron!

These guys are so incredible that they havent even managed to make a HD icon for the software and retina displays have been around for much more than a year now…. makes you ask yourself where is the attention to detail???

Looks the update fixed the connectivity issues. Everything seems to be working great now. I cant tell you how convenient it is to be able to have access to my home even while Im away. If anyone has ever thought about automating their home, do it! Its a life changer.

Labels overlap and locked on landscape. We pay too much for this system to have this kind of issue.

After the update it stuck in landscape. I contact support with no response.

To the people having trouble with orientation : Have you tried going into your iPhone/iPod settings, scrolling to the bottom and clicking "Crestron", and check in there? Latest gen iPod touch and all the orientation options work fine for me! Hope this helps.
