About HomeWizard
Control your home using our smartphone or tablet!
The HomeWizard app requires a HomeWizard* (device).
The HomeWizard connects your Android device to existing wireless systems from various manufacturers such as KlikAanKlikUit, Cresta, TFA, Somfy and Wattcher. The HomeWizard makes it possible to control lights and other devices using your smartphone or tablet. It’s also equipped to send push notifications when your doorbell is pressed and is even capable to receive data from wireless weather station equipment or real-time energy measuring devices. The HomeWizard app can also be used to control your curtains, blinds or garage doors. The app connects with your own WiFi network for internet access and automatic firmware updates. With our HomeWizard Online service you can easily connect to your HomeWizard wherever you are, whenever you need to (www.homewizard.nl/homewizardonline).
In short HomeWizard allows you to:
- Toggle lights and other home appliances using wireless switches.
- Add IP-camera's to view a live feed from your house, anywhere you are, with the possibility to control your lights/house at the same time.
- Create scenes to toggle multiple lights with the tap of a button and add timers to automate your home appliances.
- Enable our easy to use ‘Awareness System’ to send notifications when surface mount contacts, motion detectors, smoke dectectors and doorbells are activated. Link these with a camera to receive a snapshot when a sensor is activated!
- With 'Actions', you can control your lights on the basis of various conditions such as time and sensor activity: make sure all your lights turn on when a motion detector is activated, but only between 24.00 and 07.00 and turn them off again after 5 minutes!
- Support for KlikAanKlikUit and Elro switches, dimmers, and other receivers.
- Receive temperature, wind, precipitation and UV data from compatible weather sensors and plot the data in graphs.
- Measure your electricity consumption in real-time or monitor the energy generated by your solar panels.
- Control Somfy RTS receivers which are widely used for automated sunblinds, curtains and garage doors.
*The HomeWizard Device is available for purchase at www.homewizard.nl
With HomeWizard's introduction it has finally become easy, affordable and most of all, fun, to automate your home. As opposed to the Toon from Eneco, the Nuon E-manager, Tahoma from Somfy or the e-inzicht and e-thermostaat from Essent, HomeWizard is an independent platform without hidden recurring fees. It is invented, designed and produced in the Netherlands by entrepreneurs who use their product on a daily basis. You wouldn't be the first one to appreciate this difference, try it out for yourself!

Het lijkt wel of de ondersteuning steeds minder is. Bij laatste update is de laatste tijd van een notificatie weggehaald en moet je dus meer klikken dan eerst. Inloggen geeft steeds vaker timeouts. Problemen met de wifi module is nog steeds niet opgelost en app loopt vaak vast bij gebruik van de camera. Er staan ook steeds vaker foto's van meer dan een jaar geleden bij de events (deurbel met camera bij de deur). Laat ze aub de oude bugs eens aanpakken ipv. Nieuwe dingen toe te voegen aan een apparaat wat eigenlijk hard aan een upgrade toe is.

Triggers based on a thermostat does not work, if you say that below a temperature some device gets activated it never happens. If a preset has too many actions some fail. I guest the rf signals are sent without enough delay and that causes some in the list not to work

Zou alleen toch wel een flinke vernieuwing van de grafieken bij de energielink zien. Nu erg onoverzichtelijk en ik mis de verschillende kleuren tussen hoog en laag tarief.

App crahes all the time when looking at energy graphs. Turning on a light using a senzor takes ~2 seconds(way to long). The heatlink functionality is not intuitive at all and it is slow. It takes a minute to display the new temperature you set.sometimes the new temperature is not set at all. It takes a few tries to get it to work. So the whole setup does not deserve the premium price it has. It has potential but it needs a lot of work. I would be fired if I would deliver such a product ;)

Geo-location is niet ruim genoeg! Tijdens grasmaaien ben ik 20x weggeweest. Toen geo-locatie aangepast voor in de achtertuin, maar dan ben ik in de voortuin al weer weg volgens geo-locatie. Dit werkt niet! Waarom kan ik zelf de grote van het gebied niet bepalen? I'm still missing the widgets. And loading of data is slow.

App is sometimes unstable (It might have to do with scrolling or changeing from portrait to landscape and vice-versa on my tablet). I had a more serious problem with access to schedules being impossible that was fixed by the people from Home Wizard with an update, so there is active support!

HomeWizard no longer accepts new timers. It fails when trying to add new action. Support does not reply to any request nor email.

I would how ever like to see categories by room for switches to make searching for switches from a list less tedious. Support for Hive heating would also be cool.

"Improved dimmer functionality". Right...clicking twice instead of once, how's that an improvement?

Mediocre app, it feels too much of an effort to actually turn on your lights most of the time. It would be nice to have 2 shortcuts: - Home Screen Widgets - Compatibility with smart watches (Moto 360 in my case) Both would make it more efficient in handling my lights and temp.

Home Wizard provides a affordable bridge with build in automation for commonly available components and with a lot of custom extensions. The app is easy to use. The amount of monthly features and improvements keeps surprising me. Unfortunately, both the app and hardware the a bit buggy.

Wir haben den HomeWizard nun bereits einige Tage im Testlauf und das Fazit ist sehr positiv. Lediglich einige Schwächen in der Übersetzung fallen ins Auge. Wir sind gespannt auf die weiteren Updates! Smart Home Hannover

Hoewel de installatie en het koppelen van de sensoren gelukt is, blijft de installatie een nauwkeurige klus. Handleiding zou misschien uitgebreider kunnen. Verder tevreden, ook over het contact.

I am contemplating a hardware purchase. Does the app have no demo mode, and can i reach my home device via portforwarding? I rather not have an inbetween/centralized homewizard account and server in the picture.

De app werkt aardig goed, met zeer zelden eens een crash. Vrij intuïtief, maar het zou leuk zijn als de lay-out aangepast zou worden aan de moderne holo layout van Android in plaats van een op een iPhone lijkende versie.

De temperatuur kan helaas alleen maar tot het volgende schakelmoment van de klokthermostaat worden ingesteld. Wanneer ik voor het werk een paar dagen weg moet, werkt dit trucje natuurlijk niet. Optie om de temperatuur permanent vast te zetten nodig ("vakantiestand").

Works well with the 433mhz home automation expansions from Klikaan-Klikuit(Dutch manufaturer) and linking with other 433mhz electronics - such as remote controlled led strips - is possible as well. It is a great platform integrator - that can be improved on yet. On my wish list are -a homescreen widget, -create own groupings/ views (e.g. first floor, kitchen, etc.) -the possibility to program (4 button) key chain remote controls and add controllers, -creating more rules/ ability to combine rules to trigger actions (such as Ninja Rules), -storing pictures taken on a trigger by IPcams (now only latest picture available) or sending them to a predefined mail address - so I know it was the mail man who was at the door at 13.37!

Graag zou ik de notificaties gemakkelijk aan/uit kunnen zetten. Verder zou een toevoeging van een widget voor de meest gebruike switches en eventueel weer en awareness zou handig zijn. Verder heb ik af en toe dat de app de schakelaars reset. De volgorde is dan de volgorde waarin de schakelaars zijn toegevoegd en waarbij een aantal als favoriet staan en andere niet. Is deze standaard lijst aan ta passen naar eigen wensen?

Een widget voor op het home screen zou erg handig zijn, dan kan je sneller je verlichting aan of uit doen. Ook het toevoegen van een min of uren teller zou fijn zijn, schakel een lamp aan voor 10 min, daarna gaat hij weer uit. Groeten Marcel

English would be nice! Buggy as hell! Force closes every time I open. Not a bad idea but still a long way away by my experience.

Easy to configure, cheaper than a monthly service contract. Add on products generally work well. We are much happier being in control of our own system.
