No 2-Factor Authentication

I have 2-Factor authentication turned on for Homebridge and this doesn’t support it.

No lista los accesorios

Excelente aplicación el único detalle que encontré es que no lista los accesorios aparece la lista en blanco.

Love it

This app works great for controlling my homebridge

Almost Perfect - Some suggestions provided

This App is great and much faster/easier to use to update your homebridge and see status info than having to login into Homebridge. However a few small improvements would make it perfect:
1 - Provide Notifications when Homebridge has an update pending and specify the type (Plugin, Node.JS, System, etc...)
2 - When performing a plugin update, provide the developer's new version summary, so one knows what changes to expect from the update.
3 - Provide a Top Toolbar control icon that changes to indicate when there is an update, and allows for easy updates without opening the main App.
4 - Provide an option to automatically update plugins, HomebridgeUI or Node.JS using a preset schedule and notify of results.
Looking forward to new versions...

Very Nice

Lovely app that does exactly what i need. My one complain is that the accessories tab takes an eternity to load, and blocks touch input while it loads.

I can understand it being slow, I have many devices added to homebridge, but it blocking me from navigating to a different menu is unfortunate.

Thanks for your review and the helpful feedback. Your ideas will definitely be addressed in a future update. Cheers!

Looking forward to this maturing

So, this app Is still a little rough around the edges. I haven’t used it extensively (there isn’t that much to it) but adding my Homebrisge took more effort than expected.
For example. It asks for the IP address. I typed in a host name but it didn’t want to take it. Then I typed the IP address (as it asked for) and it didn’t take that either. To get it to recognize, you have to prepend http://<ip-address> so it is a weird mix between URL and IP. Then, adding my user and password weren’t taking and I eventually figured out that it doesn’t support logging in with two-factor authentication. I added a special account without 2FA just for it, and it worked.
Beyond that, it looks good. I look forward to improving my review as it matures.

Hi Druce. Thanks for your honest review and the helpful feedback. Your ideas will definitely be addressed in a future update. Cheers!

This is the one you want

Works well. Thank you.

Supports will respond eventually

Make sure you physically enter “http://“ before your server ip address. Modern browsers have made us lazy. I didn’t do this and struggled figuring out why it wouldn’t connect. Emailed support and heard back a few days later with that suggestion and wouldn’t ya know it works great now. Since I haven’t used it long I can’t possibly rate it 5 stars yet - but so far it’s fast very clean UI and I’m diggin it.

Would never connect

This sounded great, being able to control all my homebridge units in one easy app. But after entering all my homebridge information it would not connect. I verified my information I was using by entering the same IP & Port in my browser and it immediately connected. Not sure if this app is even safe to use or not at this point.
