What is the 'SofaBaton wifi services?

stripwax 1 year ago ⋅ 799 Read it

I see a constant notification on my phone that cannot be cleared, saying SofaBaton wifi service. This seems to sometimes disappear and come back by itself. I'm not running the app but the 'wifi service' is still running. What is it, what does it do and why is it there? Does it use up battery on my phone while it is running? Is it monitoring my usage somehow?

I can't clear it, acknowledge it or dismiss it. I'm not sure what the notification is trying to tell me.

(From my other posts) I am having problems with the app - is the wifi service part of the problem maybe. Or does everyone else (Android) have that too, even for people whose X1 and app is working for them?

    Can this be disabled? I really d9nt see the point in it as when I open the app is still takes a while to open and has to establish a connection with the hub anyway. The hub should be doing all the wifi/bluetooth control, why does my phone have to be involved unless using the app? This is a major d9wnside to me and I would have not backed the remote if I knew the app had to be constantly on draining my phone battery.

    Keep the wifi connection, in order to avoid disconnecting from the hub when the sofabaton X1 is in use. If you have any questions, please contact us again Best Regards, Jamie

    If you open the app and click back twice it will exit and the notification drops.

    My x1 and app are working, also on Android. I long touched the notification from the drop down and turned off the alert for this. It's all I've seen that works so far.
I have something to say:
