CasaRay

CasaRay is an Apple-native smart-home controller for Home Assistant. Control rooms, lights, locks, gates, garage doors, covers, climate, scenes, cameras, energy, waste schedules, and household presence from one native app designed for large homes. CasaRay turns Home Assistant data into focused, consistent views across iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac, widgets, Shortcuts, and CarPlay. Choose the people and places you want to see on Home. View current presence on a map, and request distance or directions only when useful. See live solar, grid, and battery flow, review electricity, gas, and water history, and keep cameras, notifications, access, and everyday controls close at hand. CasaRay Free connects one Home Assistant home and keeps every imported room and device visible. It includes live state and device control, camera snapshots and live streams, basic notifications, widgets, and everyday personalization, without device-count limits or partial-home imports. CasaRay Plus adds the experimental Assistant, a notification inbox and rules, imported Home Assistant dashboard views, and advanced navigation and dashboard placement. The experimental Assistant supports chat, realtime voice, selected images, home questions, diagnostics, and permitted controls. It requires a separately eligible ChatGPT account. OpenAI controls available models, voices, account limits, and service availability, which can change independently of CasaRay. Apple Watch provides compact status and manual controls through the paired iPhone, with experimental Assistant voice for Plus. CarPlay provides the approved voice-first Assistant and bounded manual controls through Apple system templates; it does not expose a general smart-home dashboard. Preview Mode lets you explore CasaRay without a Home Assistant server. CasaRay is local-first and privacy focused. Home Assistant credentials are stored locally in Keychain. Everyday home data stays on your devices unless you choose an optional service. When the experimental Assistant is enabled, CasaRay sends prompts, voice audio, selected images, and relevant home context to OpenAI; it never sends your Home Assistant credential. CasaRay requests device location only after you choose Distance or Route, does not retain location history, and does not track in the background. Optional notification delivery uses the relay described in the privacy policy. Terms of Use (EULA): https://casaray.dev/terms Privacy Policy: https://casaray.dev/privacy
