Recent App Redesign Breaks Connection With Filter – Filtrete Smart Review

I run my home HVAC a lot and wanted to understand if I’ve been replacing my filters too often or not often enough. Purchased a smart filter and installed it in early June and everything was working great. Then they redesigned the app and now I’m able to connect to the filter maybe one time out of a hundred. Called customer service and they had me pull the filter and reset it and I connected once and then right back to silence. I downloaded some BTLE scanner apps and I can see the sensor and it’s definitely putting out a strong signal, and the battery seems to be fine. So I can only assume the app is crap. And today there was an update but still super spotty connection. Very disappointing.
