## What is MobiLinc Pro?

Imagine touching a single button to turn on all the lights in a dark house before arriving or turn off all of the lights in one easy step on your way to bed.

Did you ever wish you could turn on lights from 1,000 miles away while on vacation to make it look like someone is home? Or remotely open your garage door for a loved one locked out of the house? Or get notified if your camera sees someone near your home or business?

Here's what others are saying about MobiLinc:
- Mitchell from Wisconsin says: "I use MobiLinc all the time at home to operate lights and garage door from any location inside or outside the home, but my favorite feature is to be able to turn up the thermostat, from 5 hours away, of my Wisconsin cottage. I can save money by keeping the temperature relatively low to protect the pipes from freezing and limit expansion/contraction damage, yet have the place warm when we arrive, all from the car with the iPhone."

### 4/5 — It’s pretty good

*2025-11-23, version 4.17*

But I don’t exactly know how to use it. It’s not exactly intuitive but I do manage to get the lights to turn off and on. But as far as programming goes I’m lost. I’m lucky that someone who knew more then I know programmed my lights.

### 1/5 — Installer

*2024-11-09, version 4.17*

This is the third time the app has crashed.  They told me to delete and reinstall the app. I have about four customers on this app that I look after. And it’s getting annoying now that they have not tried to look after this. Hopefully they will look after this after they see this review..

### 5/5 — Mobilinc pro review

*2024-09-22, version 4.17*

Over all it works well, flakes out an looses purchased icons and has to be reset (provided in app).
Over all 9.7/10

### 1/5 — Not working anymore

*2024-08-13, version 4.17*

They stopped supporting this app

### 5/5 — Long time user of MobiLinc Pro

*2024-03-09, version 4.17*

Excellent interface for controlling Insteon home automation systems. Very flexible and powerful control system that works anywhere in the world with an internet connection.

### 5/5 — Excellent Product

*2023-10-16, version 4.17*

This app works very well with my Insteon switches and my ISSY controller. Customer support is excellent.

### 5/5 — Power of MobiLinc Pro

*2023-09-21, version 4.17*

I really enjoy this platform with Insteon. Insteon is powerful; dual-band and high and low voltage. Great synergy! I have extensive at 4 residencies. I love it!

### 4/5 — Great App and Awesome Customer Service

*2023-09-01, version 4.17*

I have been using this app for 6+ years and I do love the interface.  The customer service is outstanding.  My yearly renewal was up and I had switched emails and the subscription via PayPal; my payment was credited to the old email account; this resulted in my account going inactive.  I emailed customer support late at night and explained the two email accounts and Wes had me back up and running early the next morning.

### 2/5 — Too difficult

*2023-07-19, version 4.17*

Wish i had my old manual stuff back!

### 5/5 — Still the Best!

*2023-07-15, version 4.17*

While this app’s development appears to be halted, I find this app still superior to MobiLinc X. I’d love to see development continue on this.
