Crap app, crap TV

First off, I haven’t been able to connect to the app in the last 2 years 👏🏻. Secondly I’d like to use this opportunity to warn people against buying a SAMSUNG TV, don’t do it. Literally 2 months after the warranty expired, the monitor malfunctioned and the tv was basically useless (unless I pay for a new monitor, which would cost me almost the worth of the tv itself). I have called multiple service providers, all of whom told me this was a usual issues with Samsung tvs and advised me not to buy them.In short, if you are looking for a quality tv, avoid Samsung at all costs
Very slow reaction times

Managing devices is very slow due to very high latency. This makes the app unusable, especially when the internet connection is gone.The app should be able to control TV and A/C directly via Wi-Fi, without the need for internet connection.
Privacy nightmare
ulv3r
There’s no reason a washing machine should concern itself with my email being privacy focused (DuckDuckGo), yet this app won’t let you open an account with such an email. The only reason for that would be privacy invasion and I don’t consider that a rational move just so I can connect my washing machine to my app. Shame on you.
In order to provide you with better services, some features have been improved in the new version.
