Danger!

Unreliable. Do not use to update firmware unless you have a PC available to restore system.
Heed the warnings you read here, fellow Di2ers.

First day with my bike, and I had the EW-WU111 ready to go. Everything was working fine until I opened this app, then my system was bricked. I managed to restore it all, tried again, and bricked. Don’t bother with this horrible software. If you do end up shutting down your entire Di2 system, unplug each of the cables from the junction box, and disconnect the junction box from the battery. I also had to unplug the Di2 wires at the derailleurs. Plug everything back in and you should be good to go.
Works as intended

So got a bike with Di2 and download this software, read the reviews and freak out. I had no issues what so ever and the SW worked as intended. was able to change settings and update firmware... Not working for Shimano or anything..
Bricked my entire Di2 system

Downloaded the app, connected to my Di2 via Bluetooth, got prompted to upgrade the firmware on multiple components, junction box upgrade failed at 50% and bricked my entire system. Tried numerous things I found on the web, finally had to download the equally crappy PC app to restore the junction box. Wow can Shimano do better.
Do not use unless you want your Di2 to stop working

This app is TERRIBLE. It’s Bluetooth connectivity is worthless. Firmware will begin then stop within a few percentage and then your Di2 is worthless until you can use a PC to actually complete the firmware update. This should not even be an option on the app
Without fail the firmware update bricks the battery

Once bricked the only way to resolve is to use the PC/Windows Di2 programmer to restore the Di2 battery firmware. Avoid firmware updates with this app.
E-TUBE is a bike breaker

This app shut down my entire bike. Just purchased a $5000 bike and this app has shut down my entire electrical system. Bike is now inoperable. I read the previous (similar) reviews and thought surely they have the bugs out now...Nope.
