The cycle completion alert is very soft and difficult to hear.  To use the wifi feature requires the extra purchase of a dongle on top of the already high price of the appliances.  I purchased the dongle and setup the SmartHQ app on my phone.  The completion alert through the app was nice.  Then I set the app up on my wife's phone which caused me to loose the use on my phone.  I'm not sure why or if it is something easy to resolve, but I was tired of all the hassle.  So, I just set a timer on my phone to alert me of completion and let my wife have use of the app.  Other than that hassle, the appliance looks and works nice.   The wifi capability is a waste of money and more trouble than its worth fooling with.
