Eve Extend - Apple HomeKit Smart Home Range Extender for 8 Eve Accessories, Boosts Bluetooth Reach Review

Many Eva devices connected throughout the house. I've never had any problems connecting them. But I have a problem connecting this device. I thought it was a bad unit. So I returned it and ordered a second one. Same problem. I connected the device to a power source and then went to the Eve app to add this accessory. The app saw the device but it took a long time to continue working on it and finally the app reported that it couldn't add the accessory. I have an iPhone next to the unit and they…

It worked. No problem. My only issue is that it is REQUIRED for the Eve Aqua feature to work "well". Example. Today is Saturday at 6:45 am. Terrible unrecorded thunderstorm. I want Aqua to skip today's schedule. I pick up my iPhone and it's "not connected".

What's really weird is that you first try to connect to your phone's Wi-Fi connection, intercept it for a moment, and then use cellular data to complete the setup, which causes your phone to switch back to your home…

I have to say I was a bit disappointed that I had to buy this device to connect another outdoor device (Eve Aqua) to my home hub (Apple TV). At first I didn't know what was going on and turned to Eve for technical support. To be honest their answer wasn't very helpful and they didn't try to understand the cause of my problems or offer any solutions but assumed that wasn't the case. Also, after a few emails, they never let me know that I needed an extension cable to successfully connect my…
