    Does version 10 and the new Connect App for ios require the connect bridge?

    Just wondering before I upgrade software and firmware if V10.0 and Connect app require me to have the bridge?


    Thanks....

    Not at all the home plus app still works the same as before.

    We did update to 10.0, and the old App still works. However, we're seeing constant re-downloads of settings almost every time we open the App, delaying using it for 10-20 seconds. I don't have any idea if this was the new 10.0 firmware causing this.

    Since we don't have our bridge yet, we can't use the new app yet to test if it has the same issues.

    I'd say, if you don't have the bridge, and don't care about the new Rollback feature, stay with 9.3 for now.

    To be clear, the new app requires the bridge to be connected and available.

    Anyone else updated to 10.0 and noticed this problem? If true, then it's better wait for 10.1 before updating...

    I haven't had an issue with either app's speed after upgrading to 10.0 and adding the Connect. I have had the Connect app sign itself out several times, though.

    I am seeing similar behavior. I don't know if its every time Home+ is opened, but definitely more than before. Rollback has also only worked somewhat sporadically for me... I'd wait for 10.1 if I were you.

    Updating OS firmware..... 80%... Well, I guess I will see how it works over here!

    You are right. 10.0 is broken.
