Eero is launching a redesigned iOS app for its popular mesh WiFi router systems today. The change sees the app adopt a simpler design that uses a bottom tab bar and features system-wide Dark Mode in iOS 13 among other tweaks.
Eero’s new iOS app that is arriving sometime today features a bottom tab bar that houses Home, Activity, Discover, and Settings for a simpler user experience (via The Verge).
The Activity tab offers an overview and a timeline section to keep an eye on your network. This tab will also give users access to security scans via Eero’s Secure subscription service.
It sounds like the Discover tab could become busy with promotions and offers but we’ll have to wait and see…
In the new Settings tab users can access the new iOS 13 Dark Mode support. Even though Eero has committed to bringing HomeKit support to its mesh routers no word on that for now as “An Eero representative said the company had “nothing to share on HomeKit” when asked about it.”
Eero will be releasing its redesigned iOS app sometime today, keep an eye on the App Store for when it becomes available.
Meanwhile, Eero is planning to update its Android app with the major changes “early next year.”
