What is the purpose of the Boost mode?

The unit will still function as a basic thermostatic element, but you will lose the ability to schedule, monitor, and control it remotely.

Troubleshooting

Ensure your phone is connected to a 2.4GHz network, as 5GHz networks are not supported. Reset the element and try the pairing process again.
