The app itself is very powerful and well thought out. I barely use it considering what it’s capable of. ### 4/5 — Nice app but workarounds abound *2026-02-04, version 6.4.2* This app is great for setting up more complex automations, but it creates lots of new “scenes” with random names. This clearly is some sort of workaround, but other 3rd party apps don't seem to need to do this. I've taken to setting up automations in the Apple Home app, and then using Home+ to tweak them- this avoids the issue but is still inconvenient. Again, nice app, but it’ll leave your Home setup junked with lots of random scenes unless you do extra steps. ### 4/5 — Buena *2026-02-01, version 6.4.2* Acabo de instalar la app hace unos días y me gusta pero esperaba algo más, los widgets no funcionan aunque en el resumen de la app se anuncia aún como una característica, el hecho de que sea en inglés no es problema pero podría estar disponible en español. Esperaba alguna opción para notificaciones o realmente algo más avanzado en automatizaciones. Hay muchas opciones en iconos pero tambien faltan algunos básicos. Tengo tres televisiones añadidas que por alguna razón en esta app siempre aparecen activas y es lo único que no me ha gustado, por lo demás estoy contento. A seguir mejorando ### 4/5 — Solved my HomeKit problems *2025-11-28, version 6.4.1* I have Kasa thermostatic radiator valves and multiple room thermostats. I wanted to control my boiler with them using a Shelly1 dry switch. I couldn’t set up the required automations in HomeKit as the required attributes and logic was lacking. Home+ 6 allowed me to easily set up the required automations. Works nicely with the Home app too. There is a lack of polish compared with Home but as a tool to complement Home - really well done. ### 3/5 — Пользоваться неудобно. *2025-06-01, version 6.3.0* Приложение даёт новы возможности, но пользоваться неудобно. ### 5/5 — I wish I had found this sooner *2025-03-16, version 6.3.0* Absolutely amazing app. Being able to turn dials that are hidden in the Home app via Scenes alone makes this app worth the price ### 2/5 — Crashes on restore *2025-01-23, version 6.3.0* Repeatedly crashing when restoring a backup ### 5/5 — Well organized, my go-to for Homekit *2025-01-04, version 6.3.0* I use this for nearly everything on Homekit. From my phone to the iPad to my watch it covers everything I need day to day. ### 3/5 — Doesn’t see HomePod as an accessory *2024-12-30, version 6.3.0* HomePod isn’t available to use in the app. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2024-12-10, version 6.3.0* Awesome solves most of the problems I have with HomeKit. Pros • Control multiple accessories • backup Data • Advanced automations • Custom Wallpapers • Custom icons Cons • sometimes takes awhile for accessories to respond • no TV Support ### 5/5 — Conditional Automations *2024-12-01, version 6.3.0* As I have been moving more and more automations into HomeKit, Home+ has been extremely helpful to me because it can create conditional automations where the regular HomeKit app cannot. This is my primary use of it, and it works perfectly! ### 5/5 — HomeKit app fragwürdig *2024-11-27, version 6.3.0* Super, dass es noch App-Programmierer gibt, die einfach gute Software schreiben wollen. Keine Datensammelaktionen usw. Außerdem finde ich es fragwürdig, warum Apple in ihrer eigenen Home-App Werbung für HomeKit Produkte macht. Die 17 € sind es wert. Endlich kann ich räume übersichtlicher betrachten, reihenfolgen anpassen, mehr Symbole für mehr Flexibilität,… Ich kann verstehen, dass HomeKit eventuell bei einer kleinen Wohnung genügt, sobald es aber mehr Stockwerke werden (Haus) wird das extrem unübersichtlich. Hier ist Home+6 um welten besser. 5 Sterne für die Leistung! ### 5/5 — Great HomeKit app! *2024-11-25, version 6.3.0* Fantastic app for HomeKit management! ### 5/5 — Geht nicht mehr *2024-09-19, version 6.2.1* Ja mit dem IOS 18 hat das Programm keine Funktion mehr. Dafür kann der Programmierer nichts. Wofür er aber etwas kann ist das er MAILS nicht beantwortet. Das ist Schade ### 3/5 — Where are my HomePods? *2024-07-23, version 6.2.1* Seems pretty good and is more fully feature than Apple’s official app, however, for some reason my HomePods don’t show up as devices in any of my rooms. Am I missing something? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Missing HomePod temperature and humidity access *2026-07-30, version 6.4.2* Bought it to control my thermostats and smart plug from the temperature of my HomePod... Useless ### 1/5 — What is this app for? *2025-10-09, version 6.3.0* Your native home is 100 times better than this. ### 1/5 — Update: Temperature-Based Automations Broken *2025-08-23, version 6.3.0* Unfortunately, temp-based automations are bugged in this app. I’ll update my review again if the dev. responds to my support request. It’s been about a week so far without a reply. Womp womp…. ### 1/5 — Зря потраченные деньги *2025-08-16, version 6.3.0* Я покупал приложение, что бы настроить умные сценарии для работы света и температуры. Как оказалось в нем нет половины моих устройств. Здесь нет датчика температуры от HomePod, здесь нет моих ТВ. Возможно я замечу что-то еще, но сейчас я вижу это и это отвратительно. Они есть в приложении Home и я использую их, но здесь их нет. По этой причине я не могу создать автоматизации с температурой и ТВ. Это оказалось бесполезно. Я зря потратил деньги. ### 1/5 — Wish I could get a refund *2024-10-11, version 6.2.1* The grouping functionality doesn’t seem to work any differently from the Apple Home app which is what I was hoping for. ### 1/5 — Does not appear to include audio devices *2024-04-26, version 6.2.1* The app does not include audio devices like HomePod or Sonos speakers. I am disappointed not to have the ability to include speakers in automations. I would not have bought the app if I knew that limitation. ### 1/5 — Meh *2024-04-10, version 6.2.1* I can’t see anything different from the apple home app. I can’t access any other smart devices that aren’t apple compatible and there doesn’t seem to be anything this app can do that is drastically different from the apple app. Not sure if I’m missing something here 🤷🏻‍♂️ ### 1/5 — Poor support *2024-03-15, version 6.2.1* Battery widget does not work. No response from developer. ### 1/5 — Scene con nomi casuali e altro *2024-02-20, version 6.2.1* Dopo aver editato scene e impostato alcune cation ho trovato diverse scene nominate casualmente. Non ho avuto riscontro dal supporto ### 1/5 — Gimmicky *2024-02-04, version 6.2.1* I haven’t found this to be any more useful than the regular home app. It just seems to be c the same thing with an uglier interface ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works Great *2026-07-31, version 6.4.2* This app has been working great for a long time. Very happy I bought this app. ### 5/5 — Filters and search! How about that? *2026-05-23, version 6.4.2* This app destroys the built in Home app in the simplest of ways. Say i want to search for an accessory by name. I can do that! Maybe I want a quick filter of all temperature sensors, it has that! It can also do lots of other advanced automations etc, but the simple stuff is done well and the app always works as expected. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-02-14, version 6.4.2* This is a cleaner interface than the Apple app. I use this exclusively. ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2025-12-31* I’ve tried them all and this is the best. Thank you so much. Even the price is reasonable. The only improvement possible would be to make it even prettier and even more Customisable.Like adding a clock and making the icons resizable .But that is nitpicking- it’s pretty near perfect. Glad I bought it. Does need a few updates though- can’t just stagnate!! ### 5/5 — Great, very handy, easy *2025-11-24, version 6.4.1* Great, very handy, easy I have been using it for years ### 5/5 — Best App to complement HomeKit! *2025-10-23, version 6.4.0* I have been using Home+ for years now and it is simply amazing! The things you can do that you cannot do in HomeKit will kick your smart home setup into an entirely new dimension!!!! Yes, you can do most of it with Eve but I very much prefer the nice layout and clear structure of Home+. Hide the stuff that you don’t want to see and focus on the essential, there are sonmany possibilities! Thank you for giving us this app and your always-on support! ### 5/5 — An sich super *2025-07-31, version 6.3.0* Ich habe dir erst Seite ein paar Tagen die App aber was mich stört ist das mann die Schrift von den Raum nicht ändern kann bei fast alles Hintergrund Bilder die ich nehmen will verschwindet die Schrift im Hintergrund also ist schwer bis garnicht lesbar sichtbar das Mann das noch mal ändern kann die Farbe. Aber ansonsten ist sie gut weis Mann eigentlich wie da die Aktualisierung Rate ist also wie oft die sich aktualisiert mit den Sensoren ? Mit freundlichen Grüßen Robin ### 5/5 — TOP !!! *2025-05-26, version 6.3.0* L’applicazione più semplice, completa e veloce che ho mai visto e provato. Complimenti all’autore. ### 5/5 — Annoying Apple Settings Update Vanquished! *2025-04-21, version 6.3.0* Get rid of the Home app entirely! Replace it with this app, and you will no longer be annoyed by Apple telling you to update. This is, of course, in addition to all the other neat things this app does. WOOHOO! ### 5/5 — So much better than Apple Home *2025-03-24, version 6.3.0* It’s not even close! I was ready to give up on Apple Home entirely and then I found this. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
