R6220 does not show device names in attached device list (only ip addresses)

In the latest Nighthawk app (v2.13.0.79) with the latest firmware version on the router, I have 9 devices attached but I only see the names for two or three of them. For the rest, I only get the IP address. 2 are wired macOS computers,4 are ipads and 3 are iphones. All are connected to the router and are accessing the internet. All of them have a device name set. Not having the names is quite annoying.

        Did it ever show the names? 
        I don't have an R6220 to test with.

        Its a bit old of a devices and base model so  not sure if it had that feature to start with.
