Update this app for my giant iPhone please           iPhone 6
The one who but an excellent review must be working for Honeywell total lie I uninstalled the app a dozen time and again again the lyric disconnects from it even I am at home even though I have company rated wifi installation at 300 MBPS and routers everywhere Such a big company such as Honeywell with a serious research and development team cannot code a simple app correctly I leave home and come back and my Lyric is disconnected from Wifi and need perform the whole wifi setup again I authorized cellular network for the Lyric but still connection lost Please fix if you want be better than nest Every day same scenario re program wifi and next day disconnected again Can you fix i re connect again and again Thats it I return the device and take ecobee3 Sad to observe your developers in action     Very disappointed
Hold feature still doesnt work        Hold feature
When Im home if I set a temp it doesnt always take I have to exit the app from the iPhone and go back to it again When Im gone if I set a temp even if I am in another state the geofencing doesnt always take Please fix the geofencing and setting temp portion For the it should be more reliable Ive been using Lyric since June 2014 and this is still a problem Honeywell contact me if you have questions please Its not my network BTW        It is unreliable
I probably have to reset the wifi on Lyric once every 2 months because it wouldnt connect to my phone Up until now there is no HomeKit support for this Lyric device which was the main reason I bought the it for     Keep disconnecting and no HomeKit support
From an engineering standpoint this is an excellent product The install is simplified by awesome stepbystep instructions The iPhone App and Lyrics software seem well thought out and works beautifully Installation was simple and the WiFi connected easily The thermostat is very attractive and all modes work as advertised There is about a 20 second time delay for updated data when accessing remotely but it always works Im guessing Honeywell needed to limit the number of server requests plus this helps with power management They probably wake and query the thermostat as needed As far as the geofencing as with all remote networking there can be issues If a mobile OS changes or the proprietor geosensing protocols change Honeywell is always chasing software updates and updating for reliability I was shocked at all the poor reviews and almost took the Lyric back To my surprise the App is beautiful simple stable and well designed The same is the case with the hardware Good job Honeywell I hope this offsets some of the ridiculous reviews found on the App Store Other info I use Uverse for WiFi Motorola box                 Excellent Experience
Ive been in contact with Honeywells customer support for weeks now to troubleshoot this issue The app will successfully track my location for perhaps up to a week after logging in After that the geofencing option simply stops working My iOS settings will continue to indicate that a geofence is active but the app will simply never respond to my changes in location The only known workaround so far has been to manually log out and log back into the app but this didnt always fix the problem Last week I reinstalled the app on my phone and geofencing worked great for about a week Today one week later It stopped working again Long story short Fix it        Geofencing is inconsistent
No proper geofencing clunky app control and now to top it off these people cant even keep their SSL certificate to their backend up to date Terrible product     Return your Lyric Buy a Nest
The app now works wonderfully on both the iPad and iPhone Im thrilled with the fact that I can control my thermostat when Im away from home Set up and installation were straight forward Just need a reliable wifi at home and this thing works like a charm Good job Honeywell                 Now works on the iPad
Must just me be me but this app has been a solid performer The thermostat was a bit finicky setting up but once done has also been solid I use this all twice a day everyday when I get into and out of bed What can I sayIm lazy and love the convenience I gave it 4 stars because it still hasnt been optimized for iPhone 6 btw 6s is out              Solid for me
Set up does not save your photo to the camera roll so take a photo of your existing wires from your phones app or another device draw and label a sketch Do not yet mount it to your wall the screw location is different than most vertical the reason for the baseplate Wait a couple days to be sure it is still working Running the first day it seemed to work well too well actually Our home was a little warm so we switched to AC to cool down and that is when the problems started It now could not get the fan to push the AC although the roof top unit was engaged Switching back to heat it now could get the air handler to push air but the heat would not work Turning the system off would not work either as it tried to engage a fan every few minutes but would shut down after 3 seconds Tech support is sadly not 247     Why why why does this have to be so complicated
I was an early adopter of Nest and was very pleased with how it worked Then Google bought Nest and I wanted it out of the house I was super excited about Lyric being a nice alternativeand especially excited for geofencing So I preordered the Lyric from a buddy that works in HVAC Ive been frustrated and disappointed with Lyric The geofencing didnt work at all for the first few months and now its only 85 of the time at best Its worth mentioning that in the years that I had my Nest I never had to contact Nest once In the six months I owned the Lyric I had to call Honeywell at least 25 times Most of this was due to geofencing not working and then getting the run around from customer service Many times I was told that my issue would be escalated only to get an automated email saying that it was resolved 5 minutes after hanging up the phone Overall the Lyric was extremely frustrating Its a shame that I wasted 270 on a thermostat that doesnt work as well as the 40 version So while I dont want Google in my house Im going back to Nest Im trying both Skylark and IFTTT for geofencing on the Nest and hoping for the best     Going back to Nest
The design of the app and the thermostat itself is fairly bland My main gripe is that geolocation only works sometimes If they could get that working and polish their design and user experience I think I would be at five stars           Its pretty good geolocation needs work
This app is terrible Not supported for the 6 and 6 cant remove a user without an error cant create a new account without errors most times my shortcuts dont even work and my AC is on all day long Please fix these bugs Something is better than nothing     Getting worse as the day goes by
I just purchased this expensive item and cant even get the activation email from Honeywell Are they a huge company This lack of product and support sounds like that of a small fly by night company I am really having second thoughts about this product I think I will return it and get my money back I intentionally choose the Honeywell product because I figured they had a name that backed their product but it doesnt appear that way Why cant they get it right Sad     Second guessing
Esta app no esta actualizada para ios9 y iPhone 5 o 6 actualizados No se puede configurar el app si tienes actualizado tu iPhone     Difícil de Configurar
Just came home to a freezing house due to the geofence simply not working This is our first day with the Lyric and so far not impressed Notifications dont appear either and there is no way of knowing which action triggered the last change nor what mode the thermostat is currently in Is it so difficult to add the words Eco and such to the apps main display     Geofence doesnt work
Just bought it the lyric thermostat and box is beautiful but it doesnt have or say anything about installation I had to see a video in YouTube to installed it I think im going to continue with my old thermostat Absolutely NOT RECOMMENDED     Too much money for what it is
Overall love the product when it works Whenever you need to update your device the geofencing stops functioning Ive called about it twice and each time were working on it is the reply An EASY 5 star if this issue was corrected As it sits now once you update your device you have to delete the app reload it and log back in for it to resume functionality I cant imagine this is a difficult fix Lets go Honeywell           Fix it
The app for the iPhone has been reliable My experience with our two thermostats has been reliable After an initial faulty thermostat was replaced There is functionality with iWatch however currently this only connects with one thermostat So there is an iWatch app but it does not offer full connectivity for any home with more than one thermostat This was confirmed with technical support           Ok but not great
Biggest complaint doesnt update with thermostat temp and doesnt tell u it has not updated current temp and set temp Difficult to set schedule eg if you plan to sleep in the following day u must make all kinds of changes to shortcuts Really very unwieldy slow and not intuitive Come on Honeywell You can do better     Lousy app Nest app far superior
The primary distinguishing functionality of the Lyric when compared to the Nest is geofencing and that unfortunately has not been thought out very well Basically the idea is that the thermostat with help from the iphone app knows your location relative to your home And it uses this location information to adjust the thermostat Brilliant idea You can set it up so that if you are a certain distance away say 5 miles you can change this the lyric can go to away settings automatically This part it does well and predictably Now when you are returning home and come within 5 miles it knows this too but how it responds to it is not natural One would expect that on returning a smart thermostat would set the temperature to what it should be if one had never left home but it doesnt do that Instead its looking for a preset setting for when I reenter my home and lacking such a setting it does nothing and the away setting continues even though I am home Having to specify a setting for when one comes back home is redundant Thats because you can program the lyric like any programmable thermostat to have certain temperatures at specified times So you can program it as an example to 76 at 6am and 80 at 8am and lower down to 72 at 9pm In addition you have the geofencing away setting at 85 So if one leaves at 7am when setting is at 76 it will set temp to 85 automatically when you are a certain distance away which it does and if you return at 10am it should automatically set it to 80 which is the setting already made for that time of the day but it doesnt do that This is a serious oversight in the logic of the system Hoping this is fixed without making the user have to do additional programing of shortcuts Any additional layers of complexity are not needed One simply should not have to specify what the temperature should be when the thermostat knows you are approaching home It should automatically set it based on other timebased scheduled presets already programmed for that timeframe If geofencing detects I am reaching home and its 10pm on a saturday it should check the shortcutspresets that are already there that cover that time frame and if there isnt any such preset I would understand if it continues with the away setting Other than this shortcoming this is a really cool thermostat and obviously a lot of care went into designing it           Geofencing logic needs work
Update Everything came back on and system is working again Ever since ios 9 my phone wont communicate with the thermostat and my apple watch wont either           iphone and Thermostat not communicating
Dont get this if you cannot support powering via a wire If you only use a battery expect reboot issues and expect to wake up to no heat on cold nights Youve been warned     Product cannot reliably run without C terminal
Geofencing works probably 5 of the time now It used to work flawlessly in previous versions     Geofencing broken again
Device works great when it maintains its wifi connection allowing me to control and view the device from my Apple Watch and iPhone Unfortunately the Lyric constantly loses its wifi connection requiring me to manually re establish the connection Honeywell needs to resolve this ongoing issue that many users who have raised this issue Very disappointed right now in the poor quality and ability with its wifi functionality        Needs Improvement
Without explanation none of my thermostats can be reached     Bad Update
Will not connect to my wifi nor phone I keep getting a message saying cannot communicate with server     Bad update
Bought it at Lowes I opened the box mounted the Lyric and followed the instructions on the app That simple I tried to set it up on the iPhone beta iOS9 and it wouldnt connect but when I called customer support they answered on the second ring a real person She walked me through it and every device including the Apple Watch work flawlessly                 Works great easy setup
So at this point Im disappointed Honeywell I really hoped that the negative reviews were just outliers but Im starting to agree with them and I only installed the Lyric an hour ago Call me overly optimistic but nowadays I really think tech should be intuitiveyou should be able to walk through something like a thermostat setup especially one with a companion app without too much difficulty I wouldnt call it smooth I only give this review two stars because of the very kind chat agent who was very helpful up until 10 pm on the dot MST when the chat center closed and I was cut off without a word Nice I finally got it hooked up but the first thing that bugs me is the lack of brightness Its dim unless Im at eye level with it and at 63 I have to squat a bit to get there Adjustable I have no idea When I try to adjust the Sleep Brightness Mode on the app it 1 only lets me adjust up to 50 and 2 reverts back to 0 as soon as I go back to the menu Next up like other reviewers have pointed out it promptly dropped my wireless and I had to go back and set it up again This next thing might just be me and my wife but it currently reads 68 degrees in here but it feels at least 23 degrees colder So I bumped it up a degree It immediately jumped up no time for it to actually warm up Does not inspire confidence And the motion detector Kinda spotty Its like it sometimes wants to recognize you aaaand sometimes it doesnt Look I have very fond memories of our old Honeywell dial thermostat in the house I grew up inits a big reason why I wanted to give the Lyric a try despite the notsogood reviews Well that and I dont want Google in my house more than they need to be viz the Nest thermostat Im not sure if Ill be returning it or not think Ill give it another day or two So Im hoping for an app upgrade of stellar proportions during that time or I might decide its worth it to submit to the mighty G        Underwhelmed
Ive had two of these thermostats for a week now and geofencing isnt really that helpful to me I work at home I love the thermostat design and functionality The app however is too basic the only option I have to turn the heat down automatically with timing is to turn it down by 5 degrees from my home setting Thats not always what I want Please Honeywell let me specify an actual temperature for different shortcuts Or at least let me specify more numbers than 5 degrees away from home I need more control than youre giving me with this           Good start but too basic
Getting cannot communicate with server after updating to the new version           Not working
This APP that accompanies the Lyric thermostat isnt whats its cracked up to be It never seems to get an update and always loses wifi connectivity at least once a day and you have to go through the whole setup again which renders the thermostats practically useless for their intended purpose which is remote access VERY poor customer support with VERY few updates Had to remove both thermostats and went back to my original old thermostats which work much better Total waste of money     APP needs way too much work Needs regular updates
I love this HW and the app is not so bad but why only America exists when when we have another 6 continents Why lyric app not supports addresses for all other countries           Why only America
The improvements to the geofencing were welcome that was good Now the app wont connect to the thermostat anymore amd renders all of this useless        It got better and now wont work
Im quite disappointed with my Lyric and the app On average every month I have to completely setup my hardwaresoftware interface by going through the full installation procedure because its the only way the Honeywell tech support and myself could figure out how to get the system working again after I show offline on my app It wont come back on its own very annoying Youd think they would have a watchdog on the hardware to reconnect to the wifi after a lost connection Furthermore the app has bugs and I dont see enough updates coming through to give me a feeling that theyre actively working on it Ive had my Lyric since July 2014 Update September 3rd 2015 With the latest version its even worse than before I keep getting kicked out of the app because it doesnt rexognize my account My emergency heat kept kicking in even though its 88 degrees F outside and I keep putting it in cool mode at 75 degrees F Extrememely unstable This is ridiculous for a company like Honeywell who has access to unlimited resources to fix these issues Not to mention the cost of this device     Poor Stability
I have to agree that this application lacks excitement Various bugs requiring me to have to restart the application when changing networks The app does not tell you what mode the devices is in way mode ecomode ect Astonishingly the app doesnt even tell you if your HVAC is currently running Im starting to wonder if I made a mistake choosing the lyric over the NEST        Needs a vast improvement
Just from reviews Im regretting ordering thisand havent even paid for it Hope you guys get all this geothermal crap fixed     Oh great
Ever since I updated my lyric I get an error that says cant communicate with the server The app was already pretty rough Wish I went with the nest     iOS 9 broke lyric
Had to give up my nest thermostat so I could use a dual stage hvac system and lyric is a pale shadow of what the nest can do It also isnt half as good looking but on the other hand there are hundreds of thermostats that are even uglier than this one When nest has the ability to run my new hvac system Ill gladly throw this lyric thermostat in the trash heap     Not good nest so much better
I have used this app and thermostat for a couple of months now I had previously used Nest but Nest cannot control a fresh air damper which I have in my new house This is a poorly conceived device coupled with a miserably inelegant and featurepoor app The primary appeal of this thermostat and app is geofencing used to automatically determine by the location of all associated smart phones when to set back the thermostat When I got the Lyric geofencing did not work at all With software updated the feature now works most of the time Those favorable reviews which state they do not use this feature are not particularly helpful to those who want this feature Without it you have a setback thermostat which you can set up from your smart phone or pad You cannot do it from the thermostat itself nor can you do it from a computer because there is no web based control You can as some user said adjust your thermostat from your smart phone Most consumers will not want to have to manually adjust their thermostat remotely they want it to be done automatically Also if someone leaves their smart phone at home Lyric thinks someone is there If a guest or child without an associated smart phone is home the units act as if no one is home Also one cannot determine the indoor humidity from this thermostat or the app Rather than that they have a button on the thermostat itself for viewing the weather forecast If I want to see the forecast I will use my smartphone which is required to use this device rather than walk to the wall Absurd In short this device is awful and I am returning them I generously give them two stars I just installed an Ecobee 3 thermostat and it is much smarter has a mature and very feature rich app It also can control a fresh air damper and other ancillary HVAC equipment I already like it much better Back in the seventies domestic auto makers had a terrible product When Japanese competition arrived the US companies took a very arrogant tone We make our American cars and US consumers will buy them We dont have to innovate or improve Well that didnt work out too well for them and they still have not recovered their market share forty plus years later Honeywell is I think sort of like that It is an established company who really has not innovated in my opinion in the thermostat space Now with upstarts eating their lunch they bring a half baked product to market which is inferior to the competition Perhaps a few product generations from now their thermostat will be a worthy competitor Not now        Long term update
Totally rubbish     Rubbish Version 21 Does NOT work Cannot connect to server error
On iOS 9 Im getting 3 identical notifications each time the app sends any notifications Its getting very annoying Also the Apple Watch app doesnt work on WatchOS 20 It tries to load and just crashes each time Please update the app for the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus screen resolutions     App needs to be fixed
So after a week with the new software and cold weather moving in I am liking the Lyric more and more First off the handling of auxiliary heat with the lyric is exceptional compared to my old Nest The Nest would turn on aux heat when it was still 45 out and keep it on until the house reached the set temp This caused higher bills and some rooms getting up to 80 degrees just to get the living room to 68 The Lyric turns it on only when needed an then finishes heating just using the heat pump The difference is amazing I no longer wake up sweating because my bedroom door was closed when the heat turned on in the morning Second geofencing has been flawless with three phones with this update When no ones home it knows no ones home When someone gets within 2 miles the heat turns back on I liked the Nest intelligent away features but it would always turn off the AC or heat if I was working in my home office for too long If Honeywell adds some better end user data and notifications to the software I will have nothing left from the Nest to miss 111 Update Well the software is the same but geofencing appears to be working and working very well The addition of 2 and 4 mile perimeters are a great addition as well This product shows a lot of potential but right now its a forprofit beta test Geofencing does work with one device most of the time but add a second and its worthless Ive called tech support and they say its because background app refresh isnt there It appears with iOS 8 you no longer need that and thats the case I only wish tech support would verify that Anyway so far it does the basics well and with homekit integration it should get much better           Getting Better and Better
Work very good but need system password Lyric need upgrade hardware and software for system lock Password protect              Need System password
This thermostat looks good and I can control it when Im away I havent used the geofencing feature but it sounds like people are having problems with it Everything else works fine for me Im looking forward to homekit and seeing what else I can do                 Traveler
Which kind of is tantamount to false advertising as thats the reason I installed it They admit it doesnt work and say they are working on a fix but no fix going into February they said a fix would be available mid January Feels very beta in that sense I didnt get a freebie to be a beta tester Ugh     Geofencing doesnt work
I have been unable to login to lyric account since the app updated Fix it please        Since update unable to login
The notification screen doesnt work Took a few tries to get geofencing setup Seems to work ok           Broken features
Installed in March been trouble free No power wire App does what is expected without complexity              Works as expected
