Telling users that, in order to connect their new router to the internet they must first download your native app from the internet... sounds like a non-ideal design?



To be fair, my current ISP (xFinity) and my previous ISP (Google Fi) both technically support some kind of web interface, but both push hard to get you to download their app and use that instead.

I had no problem (in either case) just downloading the app and using it to set up my networks. Most people know how app stores work now.
