Life saver

Whenever I have guests over my smart lights inevitably get switched off this app is a lifesaver and helps me complete a quick audit of all my devices so I am not surprised when an automation fails.

Optimal

Ein Dank an die Entwickler.

Nichts besonderes

Nette Übersicht allerdings keinerlei Funktion um tiefer in das Matter/Threadnetzwrrk einzugreifen. Ebenso lassen sich keinerlei analysen durchführen um die Ursache eines Problems zu finden.

Very handy

I got this app because I was having trouble as I replaced and expanded devices. Aqara gear was giving me serious headaches and this app kept my sanity.

Almost perfect

I love everything about this app. Genuinely want this to be set up to a dedicated wall iPad running 24/7 in my network room via PoE but I wish it had a thread mesh network view to see how everything connects. That’s the only missing piece here. Literally almost perfect. This app helped me improve performance of my smart home. Love it.

Helpful

Would be great if there was an option to set what units of measurement are used for applicable sensors. Fahrenheit or Celsius with temperature sensors, for example. Thanks!

Excellent app

Works every time. Love all the info it gives

Bonne app!

Un peu chère , mais néanmoins utile !

Excellent Tool

Excellent tool for reviewing your HomeKit network.

Helpful utility

It is odd that I like an app so much even though I only interact with it when there is bad news. HomeCare works in the background flawlessly and does its job reliably. It saves me from finding out the hard way when one of my HomeKit devices is acting up.

No hub support?

I wanted to see how my HomeKit hubs were performing or which devices were connected to which hubs. Not worth 7.99 imo.

Response from developer

I understand that hub performance monitoring would be valuable. Unfortunately, the HomeKit SDK doesn't provide information about which hub devices are using or their performance metrics. The only data available is whether at least one hub is connected to your home. If Apple expands the SDK in the future to include hub details, I'd be happy to add that functionality. I'm also happy to guide you through getting a refund if the app doesn't meet your needs.

A HomeKit Must Have

If you use Apple Home you need this app. Wish I got it sooner.

Finally I was able to delete 2 Bridges and 34 Sensors which are inactive and have been not deleted with deleting the Bridge (Home Assistant)

useless

lacks basic information you would expect to debug your homekit / matter setup, pure waste of money

Great at finding issues

I’ve been having issues with my HomeKit compatible TV in my morning automation. This app helped me to identify an issue where the automation was trying to change settings on the TV before switching it on. Caused delays and occasional failure. Fixed it by adjusting the automation to only turn the TV on. Fixing the morning automation. Fantastic little app!

Should be default functionality

Why Apple doesn't build this into the Home app I'll never understand. Highly recommend getting this.

HomeCare App

This app has been very helpful. It identified an old device that I no longer use. It also shows every device I have in my HomeKit

Quick & easy check on all your HomeKit devices. Works on Mac as well as iPhone/iPad.

Doesn’t work stuck in loops

I have multiple accounts so that before I give any negative review I am sure something I will say happened to at least two separate registered identities.

This app is a great idea, looks pretty, spins in loop for hours

Response from developer

I'm sorry you're experiencing issues. However, HomeCare doesn't use accounts at all, so I'm wondering if this review might be for a different app? If you're actually facing issues with HomeCare, please reach out to me via email so I can help troubleshoot what's happening.
