Another buggy Philips app – SleepMapper Review

Edit: I finally found a workaround on my own after contacting Philips as requested below in the developer’s response and being ignored. I keep being told the issue was caused by me using multiple phones but it started with a fresh install on the very first phone. It also kept occurring after several resets of the sleep light and a fresh install of the app. While the light is attempting to connect there is a small hyperlink that says “wrong password” near the bottom. Clicking it somehow stops the cycle and allows the light to connect. Obviously a glitch but just thankful I finally figured it out. The light was perilously close to being tossed in the trash before I found this workaround. I use this app and also use Philips DreamMapper and both apps have been hugely frustrating from the start. DreamMapper can never connect to the backend server and I constantly lose access to my data. This app keeps insisting my phone and wake up light are connected to different networks after I add the wifi info to the wake up light (spoiler alert, they’re not). The only resolution is to completely reset the light and try again. I’ve done that at least a dozen times and tried different phones, different mobile OS’s, tablets, three different routers and I STILL get the same “different network” error. It’s so bad, I’m ready to begin avoiding any Philips products that depend on a companion app.
