So I’m stuck with a weird issue: the phone remote refuses to connect without showing any clear error. One evening it pairs in seconds, then the next day it just spins and gives up. I’m on the same Wi-Fi, nothing changed on purpose besides a recent OS update on my phone. I restarted everything and even reinstalled the app, but no luck. Is there a simple checklist to run through before I start nuking settings or doing a factory reset?

Meanwhile, home setups can behave oddly across the day as nearby routers shuffle channels, smart plugs wake up, or a phone silently hops between bands. Small placement changes—like shoving a modem behind a metal shelf—can mute discovery traffic more than people expect. Giving the router a real cold restart, spacing access points, and reviewing permissions after big OS updates often smooths out those random, hard-to-pin slowdowns without touching anything drastic.
