Yea I'm not using anything that requires an app. If there's an app I can host myself I might use it but I won't rely on anything that can't be controlled manually. The place I rent now has ceiling fans that are controlled by remote and I fucking hate them. It uses a shitty up/down button that has a horrendous delay or both the light and fan. It's all the frustration of using a pull chain with no improvement. I can't even figure out how to get it to switch directions for winter.
