1. Before they added the subscription fee, I was willing to put up with the intermittent moodiness of the Wink system (sometimes it works, other times you wait, ok, didn't work, reset their base station, still not working ok, I'll just use the lightswitch).

2. The hub was expensive enough; if they're going to start charging to use this service (one that only intermittently works at that), I'll find a different solution than Wink.Not a very stable platform.

3. Their competitors offer better reliability, better support, and actually have product available for less than half the monthly cost of the Wink subscription.

4. So long, Wink, and thanks for all the fish.While Wink was what got me started with home automation, the product has lagged behind everyone else and has had many issues over the years which have never gotten better.

5. The hub was moderately expensive for its kind, I think I paid around $150 for it, but services were included with the device Recently the company switched to a $5/month subscription model which doesn't fly with me.

6. I expected wink to be a hassle free solution, but I would have been better off just accepting the hassle of a more flexible system.

7. Additionally I recieved a notification via the app that they were going to start charging for a subscription service but when I went to find the message, I couldn't find it.

8. I'm beginning to think that wink doesn't work as advertised.

9. The fact that I have to use this app, go through their servers and can't connect directly to my wink 2 hub when on the local network is also a bit of a nuisance (no PC interface and not even a web interface).

10. App is worthless at the moment.Wink Hub 2 has been nothing if not inconsistent.

11. I've had this problem for a long time, and found wink forum posts dating back longer.
