1. Easy to set up and add value, start machines, track history, contact us, request service, access laundry tutorials and stain removal guides, live status of your washer or dryer, text or e-mail notifications when your laundry machine is done and more!
2. Laundry Connect Pay from Automatic Laundry is a feature rich app that allows you to operate the washers and dryers in your community or campus laundry room with your smart phone.
3. This app only works at communities and schools that have laundry rooms managed by Automatic Laundry with our Laundry Connect Pay system installed.
4. Makes doing laundry easier and much more convenient than having to get quarters and having to carry around a laundry card – everything is right on your phone!
5. Check your laundry room signage for information and availability of Laundry Connect Pay.
6. The app also allows us to give you instant refunds.
7. Bluetooth is required to be on to recognize and start machines.
1. There's also now no way to tell if there are open machines without walking to the room.You can't do anything unless you give location access, which is dumb given that you are provided with a code as well.
2. Recent updates removed the ability to see the status of all units in the room, while not fixing the broken cycle status function for tracking the machines that you start.
3. You often have to return to your apartment (if machines in building) and open the app there then run down to the laundry room to start before the connection drops.
4. One minor drawback is when starting the dryer it's possible to accidentally add more time, and if you want to add more than just one increment, you need to go back into that machine as though you are starting it.The setup process could be a little more intuitive and user friendly.
5. Even if you disable the location feature by spoofing, it forces you to turn on the Bluetooth system which again turns the location back on.
6. If the card reader wasn't broken on these machines, I would never consider downloading this app.The app works well.
7. App doesn't start unless I allow it access to my location.
8. There are a few drawbacks- occasionally it has a hard time connecting with the server or the machines and its a bit clunky to add additional time to your dry time.
9. However, I know the machines are bluetooth only? When I moved into my apartment, they gave me a card and it had $2 on it.
10. Has to be restarted, or I have to uninstall and reinstall multiple times for it to work and even then I half the time that doesn't work so I get frustrated and give up for the day.
11. Creating an account requires verifying an email, a phone number, and accepting an absurdly huge page for a laundry app.
