A bit of a challenge trying to add 3 new basic switches (for 3 skylight solar shades). Found them by back paging during setup process. Then going to my switch not shown. The app and bridge are working as expected. Wishing there was a Dark Mode or some color choices for the app itself. Kind of stark and lackluster.

The app is extremely reliable, set and forget, which is wonderful! I would like to see the addition of at least three more memory options similar to the existing single memory option. This would allow setting up for each of the 4 seasons where the sun is in different locations, relative to our home anyways, throughout the year.
