New OS? No problem, Signals for HomeKit has some great new features to go with it! - Interactive Widgets - your Signals can run seamlessly from a Widget without needing to launch the app! - More options - the Small Widget now supports up to two Signals, and we've introduced a brand new Extra Large Widget on iPad, support up to 16 Signals (or even just 1, reeeeaaaalllly big one!) - Standby mode works GREAT when mounted in the kitchen (done making dinner, just quickly swipe to the Signals Widget, and hit the 'Dinner Time' Signal! iPad Widgets are awesome on a wall mounted HomeKit controller, too!

Description of Signals for HomeKit

*** Featured by Shane Whatley - "Will let you flash any of your HomeKit lights.. and either set the light back to the original state… or set it to a new state after flash. Really cool stuff!" *** Featured on 9to5Mac.com - "as a dad of three, I need less noise in our house, so I am really enjoying using Signals for HomeKit" *** Featured on iMore.com - “create tons of distinct signals that cover scenarios like announcing dinner time, or letting someone know that they are taking a little too much time in the shower.” *** Featured on AppleInsider.com - "Our favorite tips and tricks for making the most out of Apple HomeKit" *** Featured on HomeKitNews.com - "save your lungs, and get this app" *** Featured on HomeKitHero.com - "clever way to get someone’s attention in your home" Communication at home takes many forms — we want more of the dinner-time conversations, but we could do with less of the loud knocking on doors, banging on ceilings, and shouting up stairs. If you have a HomeKit home, why not take advantage of it, and use your lights to help communicate? Introducing Signals for HomeKit, the best way to communicate in the home, without all the shouting. Signals works with any of your bulbs, switches or outlets with lights attached - have a kid who plays video games with headphones on? Just tap on their light to give it a few flashes. Take it to a new level with the Signals Plus In-App Purchase, and put some meaning behind your flashes: - Create a Time to Go Signal to flash the kids bedroom lights, and then set their night lights green - A Dinner Time Signal can pulse lights in the bedrooms and the office, and then set them to blue - Even setup a “GET DOWN HERE NOW” signal, to flash the kids’ lights red, and keep them that way! Trigger your Signals in multiple ways — in the app, with your voice or automations using Siri Shortcuts, or with our beautiful Widgets! Whether you have kids, or someone in the family with a hearing disability, Signals for HomeKit can help quiet things down, and keep the conversations face to face, rather than shouted through the house. Requirements - Any HomeKit equipped light bulb, switch or outlet. Switches or outlets must be configured with a light attached. HomeKit must already be configured. - Compatible with iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. iOS 15 required. Usage Notes: - If you have a bulb or switch with a slow ramp/fade rate, try shortening this rate in the manufacturers app, if the flash isn't noticeable - if this doesn't work, please let us know at https://www.homemadeautomation.com/contact-us, so we can help find a solution!

  • Inconsistent & Unreliable

    I *really* wanted to like this app, and to be able to use it with the enthusiasm and confidence that other users seem to (at least, at the time). But unfortunately, whatever magic this app may have had at one time, that time has since passed; rarely—if ever—does it successfully execute the assigned changes, and although there are workarounds to restoring Adaptive Lighting upon completion, these are likewise unreliable with inconsistent results.

    You’re invited to make the your Signal “more meaningful” by setting the lights to a specific state/brightness when it‘s finished—yet just trying to apply the same brightness/color across all the lights used is made incredibly tedious since both of these systems are so uninformative.

    It’s an app with a *lot* of potential; maybe the Mac version—which supposedly offers more features and functionality—provides a better experience? But as things stand, I definitely wouldn’t have spent money on it if I’d known this would be the outcome.

  • Version gratuite frustrante

    La version gratuite est tellement limitée qu'il est difficile de se faire un opnion sur la version payante.
  • Always strobes in a startling way

    I really want to like this app, but I’ve bounced off it for a somewhat fussy reason. Imagine I have my lights at 25% white, and a strobe effect set for 80% blue. On most lights, colored light is much dimmer than white light. The way this app works, when the strobe kicks in, it will bring the lights up to 80% white first, then switch them to blue. This always creates a huge and startling flash in my house. I want to use the lights kind of like the visual equivalent of a chime, not a fire alarm. The app is a neat idea, but there’s no use case I can think of that is worth the panic/stress it induces.
