What's New in MasterSwitch for HomeKit+Hue

3.9.0

July 1, 2020

Known Devices now show more information on device type.  * For configurations with multiple HomeKit homes and/or Hue hubs this is helpful as will show where the device comes from. * For HomeKit users running Home Assistant or HomeBridge also helpful is the device type as those platforms if mis-configured add many sensors which look like switches.

Crashes on Startup

This literally does not work on AppleTV 4th generation running tvOS 14.2.

It simply crashes on startup!

Edit: since I paid for it, I installed on my iPad.... this actually launched and let me do quick config. I can see devices, with odd duplicates. I can turn the on/off fro iPad (which I could already do from both Apple Home.app and Bellini Wemo.app)... crashed a bunch of times... now not turning anything on/off. What a mess.

Now that I configured on iPad, appleTV app launches and shows devices... hangs or crashes when trying to turn devices on/off.

Waste of $1.99

Doesn’t work

I think it’s just spam

Response from developer

What is spam? Can you please explain. If you are having technical issues please don’t hesitate to contact support so we can help you out.

Not great

I purchased the WSwitch app which prevented me from moving away from Wemo and Belkin hardware. With WSwitch one person has achieved what an entire large company could not: a reliable useful app that controls switches without long delays or frequent crashes. For a short while (after OS 13 was introduced) WSwitch stopped working. While waiting for it to be fixed I bought MasterSwitch and was sorry i did. Very much like the Wemo app MasterSwitch takes a long time to load and connect with devices. It also is so slow that it’s frustrating to use. The look of the interface IS attractive however. It is also easy to set up. I suggest that anyone unhappy with the Wemo app buy WSwitch and not MasterSwitch.

Very slow and not many options

Takes forever to find my smart devices and to do a simple on or off, you have to go into the device and then turn on or off. Sorry can’t recomended it.

Easy to setup

I got this for my watch. It found my lights easily and I was able to control my lights within a couple of minutes. Very impressed so far. Hopefully devs continue to support.
