device names not saving on iphone app

after changing device names on the Nighthawk App I can close the App and reopen it and the changes are not saved.

 

Any suggestions?

 

R6400v2

Firmware 1.0.4.78

 

Thanks in advance

    Because it's a hit and miss - some router firmware does not allow by Web UI, some fail by using the Nighthawk App, some even fail on both. Some more dependency exists on the number of connected devices.I don't understand why Netgear does not manafe to fix these issues over all routers and App versions @AbhayB  why oh why please?

    Same issue with connected devices names not saving in the nighthawk app and not matching web UI. Gene app was way more consistent with this.
