Yeah, it’s not a strongpoint.
Meanwhile, there’s a free dashboard app designed by a community member that now has official install support and is very slick. (Formerly called actION, you’ll find much forum discussion. Very popular.)

As for grouping, it’s there in the official mobile app, just hard to find. See:
SHORTCUT GROUPS WERE REPLACED IN THE SEPTEMBER 2015 VERSION OF THE MOBILE APP BY “SMART LIGHTS,” AN EVEN MORE POWERFUL AND MUCH MORE INTUITIVE WAY OF SETTING UP LIGHTING RULES.
I will leave this post up for a few more weeks to give everyone time to transition over to the new mobile app. But pretty much everything below this line will no longer apply once you do you have the new mobile app version.
Instead, see the “How to Group Lights” article in the community-created wiki.
