### 5/5 — Greatest of all

*2026-03-26*

Greatest of all

### 4/5 — Took me a while to set it up

*2025-11-30, version 19.1*

Really took me a while to set it up. Application was constantly crashing, so I had to reinstall it a couple of times and grant access multiple times in order to make it work. Mapping of the space works quite well, but the idea with widgets I do not like. I would prefer to be able to map my devices directly within the room. It often crashes for me while using it so I won’t be using it, but I do like the way where this is going. By the way, when I hear the apps name, it doesn’t remind me of my home. It reminds me of a certain cartoon character.

### 5/5 — Totally Recommend

*2025-08-27, version 18.2.3*

Great smart home app!

### 1/5 — WARNING: MISLEADING 3 non function dashboards to test without subscription

*2025-05-17*

WARNING: MISLEADING ⚠️
The app advertises 3 dashboards, but after purchasing, you discover they’re essentially empty shells requiring ADDITIONAL subscriptions to actually function.
This feels like a classic bait-and-switch. The “Lifetime” purchase doesn’t provide what’s reasonably expected based on descriptions. Instead, clicking dashboard controls just opens windows with the same limited options, constantly pushing for more payments.
Save your money and avoid the frustration. The app itself might be useful if honestly marketed, but the deceptive pricing structure and hidden paywalls make it impossible to recommend.

**Developer response:** Hello! I'm sorry you had this horrible experience, the LIFETIME gives you indeed UNLIMITED access to the app!

This was probably a BUG where the purchased was not properly restored on launching the app. I made the restore process more robust on v18.0 preventing this bug to occur again.

Thanks for pointing this out! Hope you are willing to give the app a second chance, please contact me so I can compensate you :)

### 4/5 — Overall, it’s nice, but not reliably accurate

*2025-05-02, version 17.1*

I really like the overall design and UI. I’ve tried several different Apple HomeKit dashboards. To me, it’s the best interface.  The one drawback is that it doesn’t seem to recognize when lights are off. The native Home app normally updates within a couple of seconds of opening showing the status of all devices.  Homerise, on the other hand doesn’t seem to consistently show the current status of lights, and other devices.

### 5/5 — Now we’re talking

*2025-03-15, version 16.5.2*

I’ve tried every HomeKit dashboard I can find - so far, Homerise is the best of the bunch. What matters to me: I want to be able to tweak every little UI detail and have different dashboards for different rooms and situations (TV time, sleep, study, etc) Homerise does this better than any others I’ve tried. It’s (so far) stable - no hangs, crashes or other weird behavior. The trial version allows you to try out as many as three dashboards simultaneously, and you can build your own or start with one of several examples. The ‘pro’ version is very reasonably priced - $5.99 YEAR, with a free week to give it a good test run. Better yet - if you hate subscriptions (I do) there’s a ‘buy it once’ option. Kudos to the dev - this one’s a winner.

### 5/5 — Just what I was looking for...almost

*2021-02-10, version 3.2*

I have been looking for a great floor plan based app to control my HomeKit devices. I think there is a high demand for this type of interface especially for those of us with many devices. 
This is an amazing start and can’t wait to see it develop.  I would love to see markers for contact sensors(showing if which doors and windows are open), leak sensors, smoke/co2 sensors and alarm system, locks etc. looks like he will be adding these sometime in the future so looking forward to those. I also like his philosophy on pricing. I hate subscription models and I’m glad to see that he gives the option to have either subscription or purchase lifetime.
