Widget?
This app works great. I use the Caseta system and love it. However, it seems like the widget for the iphone homescreen was discontinued? I know it existed because in the app’s settings you can select which scenes you want on the “widget”, but the widget is no where to be found. Because the widget has been discontinued, I connected my Caseta system to the Apple Home app. I then added the Apple Home App’s widget to my homescreen, and it keeps saying “No Hub”. I have a Hub, it’s my Lutron Caseta! I think apple is forcing me to use one of their hubs (apple Tv). Would it be possible to fix this compatibility issue with Apple Home, or bring back the Lutron Widget? All I want is to have my scenes in my iphone homescreen.
Thank you!!!Show lessMiguelHerr

Thank you for your feedback! The Lutron app provides a widget via the Apple Notification Center. To add it, swipe on your home screen to the left-most screen -> at the bottom is an edit button -> in the edit screen, scroll to the customize button and from there you can add your Lutron widget. If you'd prefer to keep using the Apple Home app, you need an Apple Hub to be able to control your system outside of your home network.

Love Lutron Caseta products - have a number of them throughout my house and guest house. Saved me lots of grief a few years ago when power to my outdoor lights could no longer be turned on/off from my back porch (due to a wiring/conduit reconfiguration). Their products saved the day! And the latest timer feature to turn off a switch after X number of hours and/or minutes cures a few other issues for that otherwise took a lot of Alexa and iOS Shortcuts programming - so thanks for that!Show lessT2T2IV
Absolutely Terrific
I have Lutron Caseta dimmers in my second home. I was so impressed with the ability to control the lighting, I replaced a GRAFIK Eye dimming system in my main home with Caseta’s. I can now program each home for exterior lights to come on at sunset and turn off at sun rise, plus vary the lighting in each home to make it look like somebody is home. Lutron’s customer support system, both email and by phone is the best I have ever experienced. I love this app.Show lessazcowino
