    Ios 9

    In case anybody is wondering if the app works in IOS 9 it doesn't at present. I have the beta version of IOS 9. Most other apps I have seem to work OK in it. No doubt we have an app upgrade coming shortly.

    Yep. Interesting that other complex apps seem to be unaffected by the IOS change.

      I have now tried every app on my iPad and all seem to be working without issue apart from the Evohome one. I have reported this into Apple as part of the beta test programme. IOS 9 seems good, particularly the update to Notes which makes it much much better. Running two apps side by side seems interesting but not got to grips with that. My iPhone I have left running IOS 8.4 so that I can use the Evohome app, although as reported in another thread here the app no longer can find where I am to tell me the weather. That problem arose after the Evohome upgrade. Customer support are looking at it as am not alone with this issue. Wonder if the bug that prevents proper access to my location is the same one that prevents the app opening in IOS 9? Probably not.

      However, if there is another forum member who has tried IOS 9 and finds the Evohome app runs please write in.

        Coward - but then so am I when it comes to beta testing. That said, I have installed El Capitan on my Mac. It struggled to install but online advice was - 'be patient'. Two hours was rather long though; apparently, it is moving and deleting various files. The only real issue so far is that the iPad and Mac do not not have the same font lists.

        It's my Evohome's first birthday today. The sun is out and the water is hot so its decided to have a quiet day. Best that I do not upset it by taking all its remote controls away.

          Shhhh. Mine will be one in a few weeks time and it had a toddler tantrum on Friday night after I left it 'home alone' over the weekend. I had an email saying that it had lost communication at 19.09 and regained communication at 19.53.

          Why do these things always happen when you are away - the email came through on my work mobile but I couldn't check the app as my home mobile couldn't get a signal where we were. Anyway, got home Sunday night and checked the fault log and there was nothing logged and the Quick Action was still applied.

                  They ought to be. I have reported it in. I still think it odd that it is the only app I have an issue with. Plus the only one that cannot see where I am for weather reporting and the latter is not an issue of IOS 9 but of Homeywell's last upgrade to the app. Had no result yet from my referral of the latter to Customer Services.

                  No doubt though Homeywell have a nicer version of the app coming when it links with HomeKit!

                    It's not the only app that isn't working. The good news is that it now works again if you download Beta 3.
