Great auxiliary options!

This app adds what apple should have. Only suggestion is to add ability to pinch to zoom on viewing video.

如果有VP,真的要试试

一直在寻找可以在Vision Pro上控制HomeKit的小组件App,AR+智能家居真的没话说!如果你有Vision Pro,并且也用Homekit,那真的得尝试一下!虽然以兼容性App运行,但一切顺利,感谢开发者,软件挺棒的,动效也挺高级,希望持续优化,比如控制灯泡颜色和亮度的交互可以再改进一下,现在每次点击都会跳转控制面板,来回切换确实容易懵,而且有时会因此增加操作交互次数。不过其他的都挺棒的,最重点是达到了我一直想要的AR+HomeKit的效果,值得五颗星!

Should be standard with HomeKit

Works well, crazy this functionality isn’t included in HomeKit. Widgets occasionally become unresponsive but for me it’s always an issue with my Z-Wave or Ikea integration and it needs a reboot for HomeKit and this widget to see it again. If HomeKit is unresponsive with a device, this widget will be as well.

Stopped working after a while.

Insanely Useful & Great with Arlo and other cameras!

This app is insanely useful for anyone who uses the Home app as your main smart home application. Once you start building panels and creating widgets, this app instantly becomes your go to app! The Lock Screen widget is awesome! The active widgets are awesome! There is so much you can do with this app! Anyone who has cameras (Arlo in particular), this is a must have application. For some reason, accessing live feeds off your Arlo cameras is super fast with this app as compared with the Home app or even the Arlo native app. Not sure why or how but try setting up a camera live feed using this app’s widget and you will notice a significant decrease in the time it takes for the feed to start streaming. Finally, the battery sensors provide you with a simple glance to see all your camera battery levels in one place!

FAQ

What does Home Widget do?

Home Widget brings HomeKit device control directly to your iPhone and iPad's Home Screen. It allows you to create customizable panels with your HomeKit accessories, scenes, groups, shortcuts, and cameras, enabling quick interaction without opening the main Home app.

How do I set up widgets for my HomeKit devices?

You create a panel within the Home Widget app, add your desired HomeKit accessories, scenes, or shortcuts to it, and then add the Home Widget to your Home Screen. You can then customize the appearance of these panels with icons, names, and colors.

Is Home Widget free to use?

The app is free to download and use, offering core functionality. However, it includes in-app purchases, which likely unlock advanced customization options or additional features. Family sharing is enabled for subscriptions and in-app purchases.

Can I control my HomeKit devices from the Lock Screen?

Yes, you can position your HomeKit widgets on the 'Today View' by swiping right from the Home Screen or Lock Screen. This provides access to your home controls directly from the locked screen, protected by Face ID or Touch ID.

What kind of HomeKit devices are supported?

The app supports a wide range of HomeKit devices, including accessories, scenes, groups, shortcuts, and cameras. You can view live camera feeds with a single tap from your widgets and receive state feedback, such as whether a light is on or off.
