Beware

Airplay101

While using version prior to 2.14.4 my router was hacked, I could not login to the router even after power down/up. I had to do a hard reset to DD-WRT firmware and setup router password. I can’t prove that this app was the cause, I’m only going by sequence of events. I used this app to login remotely a few times (no subscription). This app is the only app that had my router password to login remotely. No longer using the app, browser will do. Update after developer response. I’m not blaming the app. However ive been running the same firmware for over two years without any problems until I used the app. As I said I can’t prove that you or your app compromised my password. Based on my investigation and analysis this was not a firmware glitch (25 years experience in computer and network engineering). Thank you for your response.

Better than the web UI

Invader Jim O2

DD-WRT web UI is usable from an iPhone but this works so much better. Well worth the small fee. The developer is very responsive.

Raised from 1 to 3

CloudRebel

I raised my raiting from 1 to 2 but only because the developer is upset that I gave him a 1. I don’t like the app. I especially do not like that there is subscription fee. If there was a one time unlock everything for life fee i might feel better about it. WHY? because DD-WRT has always been free Open Source and all I need to be able to do from my iPhone is look at my connected devices on my home LAN and signal strength and I might only need to do it once or twice / year. I was able to do that for free for the past 20 years simply by using the FREE access to my DD-WRT routers via Safari on my iPhone. When I saw that I need to pay to unlock those features with this app, I got angry. When I saw that this app simply accesses the web pages within the Firmware for anything that one might want to configure. I got even angrier and decided to end the free trial. When the developer got angry about my review and wrote me complaining about my review….he’s lucky they don’t allow Zero. I’ll give him a 2 for 2 expensive for my needs.

WOL

Hello Darren, will the pro version for 8.49 support the WOL? Otherwise all OK, just missing that WOL option that was for free before….. thanx!

Working just fine..... shortcut for

Home screen option is a nice feature! I guess small fee is acceptable for convenience! Thanx!

I updated router firmware to a release that had a different method of setting display parameters for the Wireless Clients under Live Data, and lost those bars & that data (LAN Live Clients stayed & viewing the web interface through the app and/or other browsers still worked). I wrote the developer one day, he replied asking for a log file the next, and a new version (2.7.6) fixing the Wireless Clients portion of the Live Data view was on the App Store the next day. Given, that took Apple’s app reviewers’ speedy review as well, but great turnaround from the developer. Using 2.9 now, and have had no further issues (I see the log file now seems to be auto-generated with the attempt to give feedback; saves steps & I suppose you could opt to delete if your feedback weren’t in need of technical assistance). Cool!

Monthly fee ? You guys nuts?

One last chance at a money grab? Look don’t worry about it. Dd-wrt is dying out. More and more router companies are making better oem firmwares.

Waiting to upgrade

Bmac1980

I rarely use the app so it won’t be missed if I have to uninstall but for now I have not upgraded. Something seems really fishy about this change and I don’t trust that it’s not nefarious. I’ll wait until some other reviews roll in. Or maybe I’ll just uninstall. And no developer, I won’t email you telling you what’s wrong — I’ve listed it here in my review. You know as well as we do what’s up.
