Leave a Review Indigo Touch
Perfect app and support
I use the app in conjunction with a complex home system with 50 or so switches, a dozen controllers, and 50 or so conditional schedules (evening lights on etc). The initial hardware (17 years ago) was X10 based, but about 50% has now been replaced by Insteon dimmer switches. Indigo perfectly supports this mixed technology allowing me a smooth and inexpensive transition. The app is very simple to use and works extremely well. The technical support team is fantastic. Both in their expertise and the responsiveness. The one thing I would recommend them to add is the Home Pod, Alexa, and Google voice interface for the app. Perhaps initially just HomePod as it is in the same echo system. Special kudos to Matt from the tech team who expertly debugged en error caused by another Mac that ran in the background an old and long forgotten Indigo server.Show lesstech reviwer
Do not buy this app or system
Because I have Macs I bought into this system quite a few years ago. I kept hoping it would get better but it has only gotten worse. Let’s start with the fact that your Mac has to be running all the time for any of the functions ( lights off/on; lights dim, sprinkler on etc) to work. More than 90% of the time not all commands are executed. I’m never surprised anymore to see that my outdoor lights failed to turn on or off, that the lights don’t dim to the desired amount set in preferences and on and on. I completely switched from X10 to Z wave hoping that would resolve some of the command issues all to no avail. And should your Mac crash while I’ve out-nothing will turn off or on. I am slowly switching over to the Kasa system that doesn’t require a computer to run it as I am only doing simple on off and dim sequences. So far that system has performed flawlessly. Don’t waste your money or time with Indigo as it is not worth itShow lessManfred the German
The best Z-Wave solution
I’ve tried or bought most of the home automation hubs and systems over the years. X10 ByeByeStandby etc etc but Z-Wave has been by far the best. Hubs vary though and after Vera 3, Fibaro etc I tried Indigo and never look looked back.
If you have a Mac it’s a no brainier choice. I’d go as far to say if you don’t it’s worth buying a second hand one to run this.Show lessThatPhilBrettGuy
Indispensable
This app has become an indispensable part of my Home Automation system. I need to be able to see the values of a number of variables when I am away from the house, and this app allows me to do that.
Now if the developer would just add geofencing capability, it would be perfect.zorkguy
excellent.
There are a few things I would change, but overall, really good.JohnRingloff
Quite useful
My Indigo, aside from automating house lights and such, also automates the play of music through the house using Airfoil. My main use of Touch is to select a second source of music if I don’t like what the present chosen schedule. A simple hit of a button will switch me to a playlist, internet radio station, or connect to the radio that feeds the in-line input of the Mac Mini that runs Indigo.Show lessJohn6330
Excellent, bug free software and impressive support
I’ve been using their software for years to control my house, and it rocks. This is the mobile version of their software, but it’s just for controlling things. Think of it as a remote control for your house. You set up all the devices from their Mac software.Stricks
