Awesome app for use with homeseer
This guy should be on homeseer’s payroll. Love his app very customizable. Love the history tracking of each device value. I would say it’s a must have

The perfect HomeSeer companion app
I love this app! It fulfills every need that the native app does not provide. It even provides Siri support which is badly needed. I would not have switched to HomeSeer if I couldn’t use Siri. Honestly I don’t know why HomeSeer does not include all the features that this app provides. This app had a few small glitches that have now been resolved. It is a very polished and professional app.
Keeps Getting Better
It seems every time I think about what would be a nice improvement to this app, the developer must be reading my mind. I really appreciate how it becomes more useful on a consistent basis.
Thank you so much for this app!!
I’ve only spent a few minutes with this app and I can already see that it completely blows HSMobile out of the water! Just the fact that I was able to connect successfully with a dns name instead of having to use an IP. I haven’t tried HTTPS yet but that doesn’t work on HSMobile either. And it looks like you have config backups working to! They should license this from you or bring you on as their mobile developer or something. They should be embarrassed at the quality of their app compared to yours. Thank you so much for creating this and keep up the good work!!
Best HomeSeer Mobile App!
I use this app exclusively for mobile automation and control of my HomeSeer server. I have tried several others but I really hate the very outdated blocky look and feel and endless frustration I had with others. I’m looking forward to improvements and new features but it’s very very usable now!
Needs HS4 update
I’m giving 5 stars because I love this app and I want you to update for HS4.
No images
Mentioned this in the past. If a good reason why no images then tell your users.
Loses configuration & edits
1) Keeps losing configuration. Widgets become status only at random (controls and buttons disappear). 2) After selecting “confirm before control” for a widget, and saving it, it reverts back to unselected when you try to use it, as well, it shows unselected when you go back to edit it again.
Excellent
Excellent app, and with the recent release of HS3 touch that not only leave me without connectivity but also is forcing you to buy the designer software. This one is a truly alternative. Please work in multiple homes connections.
Loses configuration
Constantly loses configuration, not reliable
