New Release Deco App Beta: Landscape Mode, Biometric Login, and Main Deco Replacement Feature
Early Access Deco App with Landscape Mode, Biometric Login and More!
Note: These Features Have Officially Launched for iOS - Please Update your Deco App to the Most Recent Version to Take Advantage of these features.
Our development team has taken note of our user's request to add better support for tablet users and our Deco App. Our team has been given a beta version of the Deco iOS app for everyone to test and provide feedback on the feature. This test flight adds the ability for users to use their Deco App in both Portrait and Landscape Modes for iPads! The orientation of the app should change based on the rotation of the tablet. If the rotation is not changing, please make sure that you have disabled the orientation lock from your tablet's settings.

1) Passwordless Login Via your Phone's Stored Biometrics (Face or Fingerprint)
After Installing the Beta App, you will see the following instruction to help you enable Password-less authentication (Android is Given as an Example)
2) Added the Replace Main Deco function to allow setting up a new main deco to replace the current main Deco. After setup, the previous internet configuration/settings will remain the same.
To Replace the Main Deco with a New Deco, select the Replace Main Deco from the '+' menu in the top right. Your device must be connected to the Deco's Wi-Fi to use this feature.
Once the new Deco is connected to the network via a LAN cable, the app will attempt to look for the node:
After the New Deco is found, it will sync the previous network settings from the old main unit.
Please Be Aware: The App Version provided through the Test Flight Program is an early access/beta release of the official Deco app. These Betas allow our Engineers to test the newest features and developments in real-world scenarios.
While this has been made available as a beta to the public, this in no way guarantees that a feature or version of the app will be released to the official branch, as further development may be needed. As these are still being tested, it may not be possible for our support agents to help if issues arise. The purpose of this TestFlight is to gather feedback for a particular feature; it is not recommended to use this version to reliably manage your home network. We Welcome Everyone to test the newest features and leave your feedback in the comments below:
