Re: Home monitoring set up stuck on Allow Critical Allerts

I had my daughter add the app to her android phone. I then completed the setup. Signed out from her app and had her delete it. I signed back in on my iphone and everything was working. Roku should probably fix that iphone app.

Re: Home monitoring set up stuck on Allow Critical Allerts

Hi John, I did try it on two different iPhone's and both had the same problem. I've ordered an Android tablet and am going to try it on that - sounds like @Tired1 had success with Android, pointing to an issue on the iOS version of the app.

Thanks for the confirmation @Tired1 !

Re: Home monitoring set up stuck on Allow Critical Allerts

Greetings Community users,

We just wanted to give you a heads-up that the latest update should have fixed the issue. We would recommend checking for an update with the Smart Home app. We'll be closing this thread now. If the problem crops up again, just create a new thread to let us know.

All the best,

Re: Unable to complete Home Monitoring setup on iOS devices

*update no one from Roku has been able to solve. I was in Home Depot yesterday and seen ring has a start kit on sale for 125 which is only 25 more then I paid. It’s been 3 weeks so I’m returning the system before I’m stuck with something that doesn’t work. Will be getting the ring system.

Re: Unable to complete Home Monitoring setup on iOS devices

iOS app version v3.0.1 (0) resolved the setup issues (I guess that falls into the "other bug fixes" in the release notes).

Re: Unable to complete Home Monitoring setup on iOS devices

Here is that information in my case:

Brand/Model: Apple iPhone 15 (I tried an iPad as well, but I don't know the model off the top of my head)
iOS Version: 17.5.1 at the time of the problem (17.6 now --- but that was after the v3.0.1 (0) release that fixed my problem)
iOS app version: Problem existed on v3.0.0, resolved on v3.0.1 (0)

I did still have to delete the whole system and re-add it again to finally get the Pro Monitoring subscription to show up, but that worked fairly well.
