UniFi

I run a complex network at home due to working in IT and having a fair amount of automation. I’ve used a variety of kit over the years, and all of it has been a pain to setup and manage. This app (and the UniFi range of hardware) has made managing my network a joyful experience, rather than the the stressful experience I had previously. Thank you Ubiquiti, for understanding how to do this properly!

The products are great and the web app controller is pretty good but the app doesn’t have the same features even as the web app. For example, you can select a range of dates to view data usage using the web app but on the iOS app it will only show you the last 25 hour usage. If you were to look at screen shots of the app or web app you might think that these things can be configured but in fact, the broad data they show you is pretty much all you get.. Would be fab if it could be updated to be more configurable.

A really convenient way to manage the network from an iPhone or iPad. The desktop browser interface will always provide the most comprehensive overview and granular management, but this mobile version provides access to all of the most often used features, even adopting new devices. Thoroughly recommend this for Pro and casual users.

Whilst the device icons are a nice touch it’s simply not practical and makes the client overview screen look both messy and unprofessional. Features like this only work if you can confidently cover 100% of the devices and ensure that the library of images accurately reflects the model/version. The fact that a Ubiquiti TouchSwitch has an Apple TV icon is reason enough to abandon this feature. - There’s no need for the wireless score to be listed in a different font size/bold on the devices & client overview screen. On the client screen there’s now what appears to be 4 different font sizes for each row. - On the client overview screen why is it necessary to see the device name, throughout, wireless quality score, frequency, access point name, wireless network name /w signal icon and power saving status in such a small space? - The device icons can’t be hidden or changed to generic icons in the display settings.

I’ve just started with Unifi and this app has always connected and been very handy. Hopefully they will be bringing more of the things you can do on your desktop computer to the app as it makes so much more sense to use an iPad or iPhone to change settings than a laptop when your walking around.
