So far it great. I couldn't access my Insteon hub with the standard app. I downloaded this app and it took right off!

Great app to pull together devices from many manufacturers into one sleek interface. My smart house uses a combination of items from different manufacturers because no platform does everything well alone. Insteon is great for putting light switches and outlets under smart control. Honeywell knows how to make a smart thermostat that still excells ay just being a thermostat. And Logitech harmony brings home theater components into automation schemes. Also using Swann IP carmera system. I hate using multiple apps to do all these various things but this app pulls all of it together and looks better on screen than the apps that manufacturers provide for their devices. Love this continuity. And this app works even better on the Win 10 desktop version if it. Only reason for less than 5 stars is because the android version of this app cant stream my Swann cameras, while the win 10 an iOS versions cam with the exact same settings.

Finds nearly everything. Works on android, windows 10 and xbox one so its a great universal app. A few little annoyances but good app anyway. Just needs some polish and kooks

It's a waste of time and a dumb thing to put on a television it messed up my prank

This is a great app. I love it and I don't have any problem setting this up like some people do.

Think it is a scam. Would not accept any of my logins. Completely useless.

it's a bit technical if you want to design your own ui, which is great for those of us who like to tinker, base useability is great for integrating across platforms

I've been following the development of this app for some time. The recent addition of MQTT made me switch off of iRule. Great app.

A bit complex at the beginning but overall is the best in the automation apps.

App seems like it can handle a lot, but it failed for me in a few parts. 1. Can't add Nest Thermostat due to 2FA on the Nest account. 2. Adding Wemo put the Wemo outlet under lights, which is not what it's controlling. 3. No widget. I'd love to have a home screen widget that has toggles/controls for devices I want to manage the most

Great App...I have found it more and more useful as it has evolved. At first I had a lot of trouble with Wemo but now th8ngs are working great. I love the Alexa integration. Also, thank you for developing a Windows mobile version.

Doesn't work with Homeseer. Can see my devices but can't control any of them. With latest update it's even worse because some lights appear as sensors.

Tried adding my HS100 TP-Link smart plug without success. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but nothing changed. Simply doesn't work with my smart plug. However, the official TP-link remote (Kasa) does a perfect job.

Daunting concept to control so many things. Haven't tried the customization yet. Noticed DLNA option, which found Samsung TV and Dish right away. No control over TV other than sound. App gave failure to load message. Couldn't find a BACK BUTTON until pressing around the top of app. Not visible on my phone. Keep up good work, applaud your efforts.

This is by far the best app I have used for my home! I am able to integrate everything I use into one app. Also the developer is extremely quick to respond to issues.

It found my Wemos which was good, but it spends 2 seconds looking for my hue bulbs before telling me it can't find any. Well they are there, maybe if it looked a little harder

It was a good idea to get a home remote

O70%
by O####:

Home Remote is what I have been looking for! I was fed up with the lack of attractive user interfaces for SmartThings. SmartTiles was so-so but lacked customization and they are going to start charging ridiculous prices for it. Home Remote lets you customize the look of your home control however you want. There is a bit of a learning curve, however, the developer has been great with answering my questions and helping me troubleshoot. Now it works perfectly. I would give it 4.5 stars. An updated user manual and a couple other features would boost it to a 5 for sure.

B70%
by B####:

Clumsy Setup. I wanted to use it with smartthings. This app requires manually inputting 2 codes that are each over 30 characters long. Quit before I even tried to type in on a phone.

V70%
by V####:

Better than Insteon for hub. It does not recognize cameras. I think I'll keep it for the ease of controlling the lights. March 19, 2017: Updated review. I have been using this app about three months. I have found that it loads much faster than Insteon app. Using the up/down arrow for the thermostat is fast & convenient. The switches for the lights are the same.
