Home Remote App Reviews

Great tool for home automation! Best working geofencing implementation Ive seen. Very good app. Love the features - 3D Touch, beacons, schedules, many custom actions and Apple Watch! Excellent. It took me a while to find this, but so glad I came across it!

So many options available. Great app they pretty much thought of everything.

App is now giving me the error "The data couldnt be read because it isnt in the correct format". Tried creating new action and get the same error. Maybe works for others but useless to me.

And it works very well. Took a small but of learning to get it set up but it does what I need it to do.

I purchased this app to control my line of Belkin WeMo products. I have 14 LED bulbs, 1 insight switch, 1 outlet switch, 1 light switch, & 1 motion detector. I knew this app wouldnt work with the motion detector, but I wanted to give it a shot to control my bulbs & switches. This app seemed like the perfect solution since its available for my iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Apple Watch, MacBook Pro & iMac. It also offers Siri support if you have a Mac that you can leave on and connected to the network. Sadly I was never able to get any of this to work. It immediately became clear this app wasnt playing along very well with the WeMo hardware. I was able to add my WeMo Insight switch, outlet switch, and light switch without any problems. The LED bulbs were a whole other issue though. It only showed me the name of my kitchen light, then repeated that 13 times. I am only ever able to add one bulb. Ive tried reinstalling the app on my iPad & iPhone 6s, reset my entire WeMo system (including WeMo Link) to no avail. Nothing seems to work. I reached out to the developer who said he could test with some WeMo emulators and could submit a fix within a few weeks. That was over two months ago and still no fix. In all fairness, he offered to refund me, but I thought a fix was coming. I would also like people to know that this app doesnt seem to work well with WeMo devices, so dont waste your money (for now). I dont know how reliable the developer expects it to be when he isnt testing with real hardware devices, and instead using software emulators. Ill update this review if any improvements are made.

Would be perfect with geofence !

Excellent software

When French voice Recognition supported

How about Logitech harmony ?? No user friendly interface. No action Button directly on the app. And it would be good with wiwo app compatibility the wemo like : orvibo products. Bugs crash when add too much voice control. Voice control is limited...

Hi good app but... Timers ? Colors? Dimmable ? More options please... And one bug i know the milight udp hex code send 3 times the packet in 100ms but you must send the packez 2-3 times more because by default The packet every now and then lost. therefore they have to send it more often ....in my windows app I send the code (send udp) 3 times in the distance of 180 ms at a push of a button then it is guaranteed that the packet arrives... Also great job hope more updates soon

Would be cool if there were a couple of options to customize the widget in terms of button size, shape, color, position etc... Despite that, it does what its supposed to do and is a cool way to control home automation systems without prior unlocking the phone and launching an app.

Very cool and useful app - perfect and really fast support :-)

This is a great app - Im using it with openHAB and can control all devices with it. In future versions I would like to see the following features: - possibility to use simple text in POST-Actions instead of JSON - Buttons for actions on the Apple watch glances (instead of Voice recognition)

Thumbs up and a big thanks to the developer - great app and worth every cent got it working with fhem example http://username:password@dyndnshostname/fhem?cmd=set Garagedoor open But please write at least a short documentation for each setting, and some examples, this would make configuring this easier in my example swiping down just the notification center and open my garage door from within a button is just mindblasting :-)

This is a great app that makes the MiLight/EasyBulb light system much easier to use and much more feature rich. Updates are frequent and always with great new features and fixes.

Ive been looking for an app like this for a while. Ties into my home automation well. Great that it has an apple watch glance interface. Gave it 4 out of 5 as Im having difficulty getting external urls to work on iPhone (works on iPad) - maybe its me? Voice recognition is a nice feature, hard to figure out on the watch. Needs some documentation, U-Tube videos are OK, but documents help. All together a great app. Cant wait for the next release! Update -got it mostly working. Nice interface. Apple watch app crashes - well -all the time. I think its something to do with the URL you call. My insteon hub causes the watch app to crash, works OK on the phone/iPad. Could be a 200 response is not enough?

Lights dont always respond to commands, and desperately needs an option to change multiple commands IP addresses at once. Otherwise super good

The developer is super responsive and helpful and its very easy to integrate into EventGhost or a custom web server for voice commands. Im looking forward to see what he does next!

Im so happy to use this app on my pebble to control my WeMo devices. Ive waited for an app like this since I bought my first pebble. Worth every penny!

Amazing app, allows you to automate tasks. I would like to see "on connect to wifi" action someday.
