Great bit of kit

Can't fault it, I've had it over a year now and never had a problem. At the end of the day all it does is tell your boiler controls to activate or deactivate(turn ON/turnOFF). I see on the reviews that there are a lot of unsatisfied uses of the device but I would guarantee than the majority of the times it is the system controls that are at fault and not actually the Hive device. Recently I was sent a signal booster (free of charge) as they (British Gas) had detected that my devices had lost connection (I wasn't even aware)...All I can say is,great product & great service. Thanks

It's ok but British gas need to get their finger out

And develop the app and offer. There are literally 100s of ideas on their user forum that do not go anywhere Come on!!!

Pretty good

App is pretty good. I only have heating but it seems to work well. But as an Apple Watch owner I feel they could do with a watch app that can be used for quick changes

Good......Nearly Great

Very decent app. It's great that you can control your heating on the move. Would give it 5 stars if you could switch the "Boost on" longer than 1 hour from your phone, just like you can on the thermostat. Hopefully this will be implemented in a update soon. Make it happen please 🙏🏻👍🏻

Just simply avoid

Before Hive installed - walk a few yards to thermostat; adjust thermostat. Takes a few seconds and works every time. After Hive - fire up laptop & start Hive program. Find you can't log in. Update App. Doesn't work. Switch off Hive and restart. Wait a while. Stil doesn't work. Phone Hive. Wait while they reprogram your unit. Still doesn't work. Phone Hive again to be told that the first guy didn't know what he was doing. Wait while they send some network repeaters in the post, which make no difference. Eventually get Hive back in action. Try again tomorrow. Fire up iPad etc and find they've 'improved' the app i.e. made it worse and it now takes ages to reprogram. Resolve to go back to old, manual, thermostat. There are many more, similar, annoyances. These are not isolated occurrences but quite common. Even if Hive worked faultlessly every time, it would still be far easier to just use a manual system. Jusy say No to Hive.

Terrible

Literally just had Hive installed, not more than a few hours later and the app is completely useless - upon opening it says it needs to pair with the system (something I'd already done) but this time it gives no option to type in the hub code and there seems to be no other way to effect a pair. After spending so much to knacker my heating leaves me cold and furious...
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
System Configuration F...
This collection of documents describes the programming interfaces of the System Configuration framework. The System Configuration framework provides functions that determine the reachability of target hosts in both a synchronous and an asynchronous manner. It also provides error detection facilities.
AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
MobileCoreServices
Use uniform type identifier (UTI) information to create and manipulate data that can be exchanged between your app and other apps and services using MobileCoreServices.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
