HomeKit integration is semi-raw

I'll return it. If the device works, then everything is fine, but HomeKit keeps reporting that the device isn't responding. I suspect a software update will fix this, although I have no idea when that will happen. Update: Upgrade to three stars. Sensibo support contacted us and the question was not answered. It seems immature, but the main functions are already working.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Functionality

Good product! Very helpful!

I have two air conditioners from different manufacturers - one in the bedroom and one in the living room. The bedroom unit is quickly installed with just one remote control. The living room unit was more difficult to set up as my remote has multiple on/off buttons, but Sensibo's customer service was responsive and amazing. Easy to set up and works great with Homekit and Alexa. I am very happy with my purchase.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Some bugs

Be careful with heating, cooling and air quality

This product works as advertised. First, it doesn't turn the air conditioner on and off automatically. You need to go into settings and set "Climate Responsiveness" to turn it on. I found out the hard way that if you turn off the AC and leave the house, the climate response turns your AC on when you're not home, which happened for three days when I was on vacation and it cost me many dollars. $$s. The app also tries to sell you a monthly subscription to get access to your AC usage data, which…

Unstable performance

The device is out of sync with the air conditioner at least once a day. Either leave the device on when it thinks it's off, or leave it off when it thinks it's on. he controls the air conditioning manually without any problems, so no positioning problem. I have a camera on the air conditioner so I can check. Also, there is no way to set security settings on the device and when I asked for help, the company was able to access the device without my permission. The device thinks it's been added to

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Upgradable

Sensibo Air is a great choice for controlling Alexa and HomeKit!

Last summer I finally got tired of the heat in my studio and installed a Carrier 40MAQ mini split system and I love it! to cool down or warm up the studio before entering. I tested a few products and while they were cheaper and worked well, unfortunately they didn't fully support HomeKit and Alexa. Then I found an article about Sensibo Air and decided to give it a try. It took me about 15 minutes to fully integrate it into my Alexa and HomeKit setup and it worked great from the first command. I

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Low maintenance

UPDATE: I'm reducing my rating from 4 stars to 1 star. Maybe I got a lemon, but the air temp sensor I got is completely disabled. It's accurate around 70 degrees and drifts well below that, to the point where it reads 51 degrees at 36 degrees. Sensibo website for my sensor the temperature offset is shown correctly in the Sensibo app but the offset does NOT make it to the Apple Homekit. This means that the offset is set ONLY in the Sensibo cloud and not locally on the device and is therefore not

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Repair

Real comfort; works with Apple HomeKit; some security/privacy issues

The device I ordered from Revain never got to me due to a weird Revain execution error so I re-ordered directly from the manufacturer. I'm impressed with Sensibo Air. Set up was seamless and completely controlled via the app. I was able to get the device working on my configured network, which is blocking Internet of Things (IOT) traffic. The app can do everything the remote can do. The Apple HomeKit integration does what I need, allowing me to turn the air conditioner on and off, set the…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Useless features
