### 5/5 — Handy App

*2026-01-27, version 3.4.1*

Works well, allows me to open doors to your mothers house

### 5/5 — IR Connect

*2025-11-20, version 3.3.4*

We have recently had the Inner Range Inception Controller and Video solution installed at our home. What an amazing system all controlled from the app and even utilising Siri

### 1/5 — App basically does not work

*2025-08-30, version 3.2.1*

I’m not impressed. All of the glitches mentioned by others I’m experiencing also. It is the glitchiest app I’ve ever tried to use. Communication between the security system, the T4000, iPhones and iPads result in all the usual can’t login messages and no real time data shows up in the app, if you can get in. Useless and pointless app unfortunately

### 1/5 — POS

*2025-08-27, version 3.2.1*

Terrible app! About as useful as a goat with one leg.
Needs a lot of work

### 1/5 — Watch app

*2025-07-28, version 3.2.1*

The watch app has disappeared. Can you fix this ?

### 2/5 — Shortcuts glitch

*2025-03-26, version 3.0.0*

I used to have my old iPhone working with shortcuts although since upgrading it seems SkyCommand no longer talks to the shortcuts app to enable seamless transitions with Siri

### 3/5 — Time controlled to toggle option for outputs on CarPlay and apple watch

*2025-02-19, version 3.0.0*

Add an option to add timed control or toggle an output to control gates roller doors etc that don’t need to be programmed a door.

### 2/5 — Old and buggy

*2025-01-13, version 2.4.1*

This App requires a lot of TLC to bring it up to modern standards. They require you to pay for a subscription to receive security notifications which is weird. We are usingthe App because of  our  building security system.

### 1/5 — Stay away

*2024-12-09, version 2.4.1*

Absolute rubbish app that causes a ridiculous amount of time wasting and stress. Continually breaks down. Just waiting for the break in to happen at this point.

### 2/5 — Sky Command App needs attention Urgently

*2024-10-16, version 2.4.1*

App is very handy way to keep any eye on the system when your away however app is very slow and laggy takes ages to load up and ages when selecting doors or inputs/outputs also push notifications are slow to come through when event happens
