    I have the Orbi app installed on four different Android devices ( two phones, two tablets).  As far as I know, there is no limit to the number of devices that can run the Orbi app and manage one Orbi system.

        I do not know if there is a difference betweeen Apple and Android in setting up the app.  All I do is enter my Netgear user ID and password and Login.  Of course, the phone has to be connected to the Orbi WiFi network at the time in order to find the router.
