The app is great for managing my network. I have experienced only one issue. I’ll be using it just fine and then open another app. When I switch back to or re-open the Aruba app after a long period of time (multiple hours), it only shows a white screen. The time in between using it seems to be the key factor. I have to swipe it away to allow it to restart and then it works fine when I re-open it.

This app is good for 2 things. Telling you a site is down and setting up a quick wifi. If you need to manage any devices or look into any issues then I suggest using the Aruba website from a PC. This app is missing all the QOL improvements that is needed to do any kind of actual real world troubleshooting. In the website I have the ability to add fields so I can view all device names, mac, ip, os, connection speed and Wi-Fi name all from ONE screen. In this app you have to look in an unnecessary amount of different locations just to view all that info for one device. If you have 50+ devices then good luck using the app. You also need to add a reboot all devices option so I don’t have to reboot 25 APs one at a time…. After they updated it a few days ago they made it even slower then it was before. Logging in, switching sites all slow. I change the sorting to alphabetical, and every time I log back into the app, they change it back the some other setting.

Are there active updates on this? Looks dated and still has limited reviews. The system works okay, however I still see a slow adoption rate to this… I’m not sure why other than it doesn’t appear to be advertised or marketed well… could be why it looks so dated.. Update: Now I know why, Bought an AP 22 on the 7th, connection in 1,500 sqft home. The home is 1 floor, mounted in attic. It could not reach the master bedroom without dropping out. Master bathroom, forget about it. It’s connected at 1-0 bar at best. Andddd guess what no connectivity. For reference, currently have a Ubiquiti UAP-LR, it’s got better range and can get full connectivity. 6 plus years in attic still going strong. Finally thought it was time for upgrade, since we are getting fiber in a couple of weeks. Not was I wrong with this one.. For the AP22 No matter what setting you move the 2.4 ghz to, it will not stay connected. And for the 2.4 to work, you have to have both 2.4 and 5 GHz enabled. The iPhone will not connect otherwise. Atleast the cloud portion works, so you can easily reconfigure. But after 2 days of working with this, it’s going back. Getting another Ubiquiti U6-LR for the same price with 4x4 MIMO vs this at 2x2. For only $10 more. Had high hopes for this system to work, but definitely not ready for a SMB or home. Glad I don’t order these for my clients…
