Ratings and Reviews
Timer function helps me saves time
I usually set a timer for my washing machine so when I wake up or come home from work and it’s done and just waiting for me to hang dry the clothes. Although this is not really a smart device function it’s just a simple setting up a timer the app can be used to monitor or maybe pause it remotely if you happen to forget to put in some more clothes. Overall happy with the machine and the app integration.
Developer Response ,
Thank you very much for your feedback. Our app developers are working to provide a better customer experience. ^LG
Very slow and few functionalities.
Updated review. Is there a reason it stores over 100Mb of data on iCloud? I chose to backup to iCloud so it’ll be easier if I choose to change my phone but it’s taking up an unjustifiable amount of storage.
It takes forever to figure out how to get the app to work. If your 4G is not switched off before connecting it’s impossible to connect your device to the app.
This app also has a comparatively much slower loading time when it comes to updating the status of the LG device.
There is also not a lot of features for you to control your device. I have a LG washing machine and it’s awful that if you are controlling it with the limited functions available on the mobile app, you can’t control it on the washing machine itself (have to deactivate remote control).
What went wrong?
I use LG ThinQ app to link my dishwasher to my phone. The app would remind me to add rinse aid, dishwasher salt and even perform machine wash after 30 cycles. When it is time to perform any of the actions mentioned above, the dishwasher would also notify me by blinking the individual indicator light. Somehow, after using the app for 6 months, this function suddenly disappeared. I now have no idea if I should add rinse aid or dishwasher salt. I even have to manually check if it has reached 30 wash cycles before I perform the machine wash. I called in and customer care passes the blame to technician and technician passes the blame of the app. LG doesn’t came up with a concrete plan on how to resolve this matter properly. Everyone in LG is pointing fingers at one another, wonderful.
