Request to add more icon support in Nighthawk app for “smart plugs, smart bulbs, smoke detectors, thermostats, and door bells”.
Some newer routers models have added more device types/icons which are reflected in the Nighthawk App, too. So this happened to some limited extent already. What router model and firmware do you have?

Please bring back Speedtest history log. The last update after a day or 2 the history completely vanishes leaving us with nothing to compare one week or month to the next.
Looks to me like the last update (here 2.4.2.726 on Android) has changed the features around the Speedtest - and as part of this the existing history seems to have been dropped completely. For example, there is a chart - however, the chart is buggy, and does not reflect multiple tests within minutes or hours. The chart does only scale to days (and today it says 08/15 (what means something very different here in Europe - leaving alone that once more Netgear does fail to use date/time format settings of the mobile). When changing to the list view (Hamburger menu top right) to List view, todays tests are listed (again not in the date/time format set on the device). And hey Netgear: Mbps don't exist in ANY standardisation. These are either Mb/s or Mbit/s (and the later would make things clear for consumers!).

Would also request a “Hot Spot with customizable agreement page/optional password feature.
While this would be nice for the Guest network indeed ... there are a zillion of issues, bugs, and features Netgear has to address and fix before before adding such nice features.
I have the following:
R9000 with firmware V1.0.4.34Na
NightHawk App Version 2.4.1.20
IOS 12.4 iPhone XS Max
Yes the chart is utter garbage. It is painfully annoying the steps needs to take to see the history log which needs to be performed each time you enter the app. I have no clue the point of the chart when it display no relevant or comparable information. Added when clicking “save” for list view the app does not honor it. It defaults back to chart view when navigating back.
The date/time issue is not isolated to Europe. I can see the bugs too. It will not show me a complete history as it previously did in past. Now can only see 1 day of history. If I perform a speed test today, yesterday’s history is vanished.
