Unreliable Bluetooth control

As another had complained, the app constantly berates me to turn on Bluetooth even when I’m not running the app. Then when using the app, connectivity to an astera box will drop frequently. You must check the box to leave the screen on and never leave the app. If you do either, expect a long process of manually removing the Bluetooth device from IOS and adding it again from within the app. Tested on multiple devices, all with same response. Please fix!

Nope

This app is horrendous. I’m currently sitting on the concrete on the ground floor of a parking garage on a holiday weekend trying to update all of these Titan tubes and the app just won’t cooperate. I’ve been in the lighting world for 20 years and I’ve never met a more frustrating system. I have 72 titans running. 48 were running fine all day then all of a sudden the Art7 transmitter decided to update in the middle of the day. After the update, 43 of my tubes are not showing up in the app now. They are rigged in housings that are mounting the concrete ceiling. They can only be reached with a lift. All of the other technicians have gone home and here I am dealing with this garbage software. Fix what is broken before you add more junk. You’re wasting my weekend. Thanks for nothing.

Terribly Designed App

Given the cost of Astera lights, it’s astounding how terribly designed this app is. Not intuitive at all, and requires all kinds of wacky workarounds to achieve simple tasks like removing the amount of lights in a group. Really baffling how terrible this app is after spending several thousands of dollars on their lights.
