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. ### 2/5 — Connection errors *2026-02-21* App will “see” hb, show information about it, but then just spin and spin and throw a connection error, so it’s useless to me unfortunately ### 2/5 — No lista los accesorios *2024-07-05* Excelente aplicación el único detalle que encontré es que no lista los accesorios aparece la lista en blanco. ### 2/5 — Accessories won’t load *2023-02-07* …which makes it useless for me. ### 3/5 — No 2-Factor Authentication *2024-07-15* I have 2-Factor authentication turned on for Homebridge and this doesn’t support it. ### 3/5 — Looking forward to this maturing *2024-01-05* 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:// 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. **Developer response:** Hi Druce. Thanks for your honest review and the helpful feedback. Your ideas will definitely be addressed in a future update. Cheers! ### 4/5 — Almost Perfect - Some suggestions provided *2024-02-12* 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... ### 4/5 — Supports will respond eventually *2023-10-13* 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. ### 4/5 — Widgets and editing names of the accessories *2022-12-12, version 1.1.1* App works good and smooth. But missing widgets and the ability to rename accessories ### 5/5 — Love it *2024-05-29* This app works great for controlling my homebridge ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very Nice *2024-02-05* 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. **Developer response:** Thanks for your review and the helpful feedback. Your ideas will definitely be addressed in a future update. Cheers! ### 5/5 — This is the one you want *2023-10-24* Works well. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Great support *2023-05-26, version 1.1.1* Fantasic support and contact via email to get the app going on my mac. My knowledge needed more help with regard to url etc. Instant email back and forth till i got going. well done guys . ### 5/5 — Great HomeBridge App *2022-12-20* Does exactly everything you need for an app to view and maintain your HomeBridge. Can we get a Dark Mode? ### 5/5 — Please add Hoobs support *2022-12-05* Please add Hoobs support --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
