1. [R1] Aladdin Connect 1/5 · US The Worst App Ever: Trying to connect my garage door to this app is an excruciatingly painful process. After I switched to a new WiFi 7 router, I was unable to ever sync the door to my new network. Thanks for a low quality product.
2. [R4] Aladdin Connect 1/5 · US Connection issues: App issue connecting
3. [R8] Aladdin Connect 4/5 · US Owner: I keep losing my wifi to the garage door opener even though I have a wifi extender in the garage area. Can you help me??
4. [R9] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Love the app, hate that it’s tough rebook up after outage.: Why does it go offline every time there is an outage? It’s a pain to get it reconnected
5. [R18] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Works but a bit slower than myQ opener: App lags and very slow to connect to garage opener. Speed matters
6. [R27] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Crawling: Absolutely the slowest app you will ever use, but it works.
7. [R43] Aladdin Connect 4/5 · US Solid App, Poor Synch Perfirmance: Does what it needs to. Operates the doors and give you status on their open or closed position. The biggest flaw is that it takes anywhere from a few seconds to even a minute to sync with your garage door opener, particularly if you haven’t used it in a little while. When you’re standing right outside the garage door in the rain, that can be frustrating. Be
8. [R3] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Aladdin User: Would like to have smart watches added to control door.
9. [R6] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Ok, but could be better: Works ok, but would be nice if it showed up on the Apple Car Play screen. Would be much safer and more convenient than having to do this from the phone itself. How hard could this be?
10. [R12] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Siri: The app works great however it should be available for iOS as a shortcut it used to be, and you guys took it away. Please put it back in.
11. [R15] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Apple CarPlay: Please get this on Apple CarPlay
12. [R7] Aladdin Connect 1/5 · US Doesn’t work because my password is too long: I can’t get the wifi setup because when I enter my WiFi password it’s too long and cuts off, therefore the Aladdin connect thinks I put in the wrong password. Ridiculous! Please fix and I’ll adjust rating
13. [R33] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Hard to program: Up to now, I can’t open or close using the app. I basically just use the app for the notifications if someone opens or close the garage door.
14. [R23] Aladdin Connect 5/5 · US Love the app, would like opt-in garage door open reminder notifications: A really nice feature to add to the app is the ability to create custom reminder notifications. One in particular is for the user to create a reminder if the garage door is opened for more than X minutes &/or X hours. That’s the only one I would create but there could be more.
15. [R29] Aladdin Connect 5/5 · US Just installed: Was easy to install on my own. Only wish I could control the light from the app
16. [R36] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Works fine: Would like to have a history of past opening and closing times. Everything else is good. Easy to set up etc
17. [R44] Aladdin Connect 2/5 · US Other app better: Other brand remind me when opening long time and can see the history
18. [R19] Aladdin Connect 1/5 · US Cheap: Dont waste your time with Aladdin. Cheapest system on the market is never the best and this system is awful. Have replaced all of mine and have had no issues at all and actually get help from support now
19. [R46] Aladdin Connect 1/5 · US Customer support is the worst.: I’ve only had one representative who was willing to take the time to walk me through programming my garage door. I would never purchase this product ever again. Support is the worst. The product does not work. I hate everything about it. While trying to program my remote, I called Customer Service and the rep hung up on me. She did not believe the information that I
20. [R13] Aladdin Connect 1/5 · US Solicits reviews: App works fine but keeps asking if I like it but only directs to reviews if I say yes. Trying to game the review system is not friendly to potential customers.
21. [R51] Pinterest 1/5 · US trash: every update makes it worse and worse. too many ads, creator functions are so buggy, home screen widgets don’t work. would give it zero stars if i could
22. [R52] Pinterest 4/5 · US Please Fix Update: My favorite app but I am so sad about the new update. My board sections are so hard to access now, it's not very user friendly! The old format was perfect, please fix.
23. [R53] Pinterest 3/5 · US Ugh: Screw your massive ad problem
24. [R54] Pinterest 1/5 · US Terrible bugs: I ran into this issue upon logging in on my laptop. After typing in the CORRECT credentials, the site not only logged me out on all devices but also reset my password. I wish I was making this up. Now, not only do I have to log back in on MULTIPLE devices, but I also have to set up an entirely new password. Highly upset.
25. [R65] myQ Garage & Access Control 1/5 · US Frustrated: Why in the world does it pause my music in Apple CarPlay when I load the app and why don’t you figure out to put the app as usable in CarPlay?
26. [R66] myQ Garage & Access Control 5/5 · US Good 1: Good1
27. [R67] myQ Garage & Access Control 3/5 · US App hijacking audio: The app works fine, but it's recently started highjacking my audio when I open it. I get in my car, get my music going, open the app.. my music stops. Close the app, music didn't start back up I have to hit play again. What is the reason a GARAGE DOOR app needs to shut down my audio?
28. [R68] myQ Garage & Access Control 1/5 · US Bug hasn’t been fixed: The myQ iOS app sends a media pause command every time it opens or returns to the foreground. Spotify playback is paused even when no garage operation is initiated. This happens after reinstall and with all audio outputs. If MyQ is left open and the user returns to Spotify to resume, then switching to MyQ pauses the output even without actions being requested. The app is cal
29. [R79] Finch 1/5 · US ironic and a tad hypocritical: I used this app when I was very sick and dealing with significant light sensitivity. It had genuinely useful self-care features, especially the haptic breathing exercises, which is why I kept trying to use it despite the fact that the bright interface caused me physical pain. For years, users asked for dark mode. The explanation was always that design was difficult.
30. [R80] Finch 4/5 · US Haiiiiii: Five star review except I’m really really sad because I lost my 200 day streak and I worked so hard on it D: that suckish 🙄maybe you guys can fix that :b but yeah, Finch is awesome and I totally recommend it 🎀:D✨
31. [R81] Finch 3/5 · US Took away my goals: i used to love this app as i have over 300 day streak right now and i am very disappointed in the update removing long term goals (some of which i was very close) long term big goals help keep me interested and with them gone so is my motivation. not to mention the dire need for new shop items i have 15000 gems and nothing to spend them on. went from maybe half an hour a day to
32. [R82] Finch 1/5 · US Mental Illness: This app promotes mental illness by pushing the pronoun ideology of the crazy alphabet cult.
33. [R93] I am 1/5 · US Why: I am confused people.Why have you made an app that only writes positive things every single day.To me it is only another annoying app that makes notification
34. [R94] I am 5/5 · US The help I am gave me: I am is not just a nap. It is a lifesaver and a helper. I just started using I am and it makes me feel calmer and more, loving on myself I have realize that I am enough and I don’t need to give people more than they or me and my mom are building a stronger relationship and that I can avoid people such as friends or family that make my mental health worse or my self-confidenc
35. [R95] I am 3/5 · US Annoying lying notifications: I’m about to delete this app, it’s driving me nuts. Recently within the last couple months I’ve started getting notifications throughout the day about ‘losing my streak’ even though I’ve already checked the app. Now I’m getting about 6 notifications a day about ‘losing my streak’, ‘only one freeze available’ and now ‘start a new streak’ which came an hour after a ‘
36. [R96] I am 1/5 · US Notifications: There is absolutely no reason why I should receive 5 separate notifications from this app back to back.. less than a minute went by & all of these separate notifications just decided to randomly pop up. App has got to go ✌🏾✌🏾
37. [R107] craigslist 1/5 · US Posts: My items keep getting flagged and taken down the same day after posting for no reason just because people are rude and it just gets taken down immediately just because one person doesnt like it. They all went by guidelines it doesnt matter if it does or not if it gets flagged by 1 person it gets taken down. Ive reposted it multiple times and it keeps getting taken down just because one salt
38. [R108] craigslist 5/5 · US This works: Great experience! My car sold quickly for my full asking price. The platform was easy to use, and I connected with serious local buyers. I would definitely recommend Craigslist to anyone selling a vehicle.
39. [R109] craigslist 1/5 · US Randomly stopped working “credibility check error?”: I have no idea why I’m unable to login any longer on the app. Keep getting a “credibility check error.” It was working fine awhile ago.
40. [R110] craigslist 5/5 · US App works great!: No complaints with this app. It simply works. Appreciate the chat function, which allows us to select a unique notification just for craigslist. though we usually still use the anonymized email relay, the chat in the app is great for fast moving items and coordinating pick ups without giving out our phone number.
41. [R24] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Convenient however…: Would be nice if the app could be directly with CarPlay. I know there are work arounds but it would be easier just as a button.
42. [R39] Aladdin Connect 3/5 · US Needs apple carplay support: The app is good but it really needs apple carplay support. Especially since vehicle manufacturers are cheaping out and not installing homelink openers in vehicles. It will also help with going from vehicle to vehicle without having to reprogram each vehicle to the doors.
