Lutron Connect for RA2 & HWQS for Android
Wish it had dark night theme.
Great system
The app is okay. Lutron is limited on which home applications will work and they're not vey open to adding. They have Sonos, BUT not HEOS and no plans to add. They have AC control but not for CARRIER, the biggest, and no plans to add. Disappointing.
First the app functions well. Consistent reliable remote access. Button editing is great. Alexa works but dimming would be nice. geofencing is good but sometimes off I can't tell if it is my phone or the app sometimes thinks I'm not at home when I am. The caseta app is clearly where the focus is. I would like to see widgets in different sizes 1x2 1x4. The ability to change colors and background transparency of said widgets. IFTTT integration would be nice as well.
The implementation of Alexa support now gives you a 5 star reason to get Lutron Connect.
For some reason this app randomly drains my battery until I force stop it even when I have not used it. I have to constantly monitor battery usage to make sure the app didn't go crazy
This is a great app and could be greater. I would like to see it be little more customizable and give the programmer the ability to hide or change things the end user doesn't need to see or have the ability to change.
*Update* : things are looking much better in terms of connection time! I'm seeing connection within 2 - 3 seconds from a cold start. If I could request a feature it would be to incorporate the categories (lights/fans/etc) across all areas such as in the Lutron Home Control+ app. That way I can see the status of all lights on the same screen. Thank you!
Sure it's prettier than the old one but what happened to the drawer pullout menu and those super useful lists of lights and shades for my whole home?
App works well so far. Waiting for integration capabilities other than thermostats.
Nice app. I like the Homeglance screen, geofencing, and ability to add my favorites to my widgets

A few quirks, but getting better. App drains phone...energy hog.
