To follow up I've gone with some Hunter Douglas Power View units, with the top-down/bottom-up dual motion. About 9 months now and the batteries are still good (movement 3-4 times daily). Their app has no security. Nor are there any kind of diagnostics to help figure out what's going on with RF signal coverage (or lack thereof). Sometimes it's hit-and-miss trying to get shades to pair, but they tend to stay paired. There's no 'documented' API for the network but some folks have figured it out. I have not tried the serial connection as I don't have anything with a serial port near enough to where the hub decided it "needed to be".
