How many zipato employers use a zipabox at home?

I was wondering if employers of zipato ever experienced the daily use of the zipabox.

Because it is a real nightmare if you try to use it to control the temperature of your home.

One week it works correctly, next week it's broken again. After (too) many reinstalls it works again, too find out next month there is something updated that breaks everything again.

Do you people realize that some bought your box as a serious controller for there homes. NOT AS A STUPID PLAY THING.

eheh good question I already asked several times.

However I have to admit that it's getting better even if I still have issue when I modify thermostat I can never be sure it will work again :)

I calm down myself with the summer coming but I hope they will keep working on it to make it reliable for the next fall/winter

If you look at other products they have the same sort off problems. So i think i't has more todo with the complexity of controlling tempature/thermostat then with Zipato.


Offcourse they have to fix it and make it work correctly. Then i'm going to control my home to.

Sebastian, I just logged another bug on thermostat. Basically it works "well" once it's set up but as soon as I changed something it breaks the thermostat. I think the reboot way is the only way to recover (hum I thought it was fixed)

after reboot it didn't help. I had to open thermostat make a false change (select timezone and reapply same configuration as it was) and it worked again. You need to work on that because I have this issue a lost every time. At least now I know if a thermostat will work or not. When I manually adjust and if when I click on program it doesn't set the programmed temp then it's broken otherwise it works. Pretty annoying since it takes lof of time for any change. change, reboot, try, change again save synchro and cross the finger
