With this application you can set up and control Shelly Smart Home devices. The application can connect to the Shelly Cloud via a Shelly user account. All existing functions, however, can also be used completely without an internet connection. If you are in the local network, the devices communicate directly. Outside the local network, this is done via a Shelly user account. Updates can be easily distributed to the Shelly devices via smartphone. For this, they don't even need an internet connection. This is a private project and will be developed and improved by me as much as possible. Since I don't own all Shelly devices, some are not supported here. I am very happy about constructive feedback and suggestions. ## Key features - Set up smart home devices - Control devices locally - Connect to Shelly Cloud - Remote device access - Update devices via smartphone - User account management ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Donate 0.99 € | $0.99 | one-time | | Donate 14.99 € | $14.99 | one-time | | Donate 4.99 € | $4.99 | one-time | ## Recent user reviews (10 of 33) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/shelly-home/id1481222211/reviews.md ### 5/5 — Solid App with great potenial *2025-01-03* I am a bit of a privacy freak and about what information is collected and shared with the usual unnamed "carefully selected" third parties. This app respects that by giving me the option to use my shelly devices ditectly. The funcionalities provided just works. Thanks Dirk! ### 4/5 — Shelly UNI graphical displays. *2024-08-02* I’m trying this App as it would be quite useful to be able to log data from the Shelly UNI’s analogue voltage data input. I use this voltage value to track solar panel output. I will be using this voltage to also track hydrostatic water pressure in a rainwater tank. Would be great to have the ability to display graphically in a similar manner as the temperature and humidity. Similar to Home Assistant. Ability to create custom gauges. Alas not available but perhaps in future updates. ### 5/5 — Ottima App *2024-06-06* Una fantastica app per ios migliore dell’originale e molto piu funzionale. Grazie. ### 5/5 — Kein Konto erforderlich *2024-05-26* Im Gegensatz zur Shelly-App von Allterco wird hier kein Konto benötigt. Für die lokale Steuerung von Geräten perfekt. ### 5/5 — Perfekt für VPN *2024-04-05* Da sich die Shelly Smart Control App weigert, sich mit Shellies via VPN (ohne Shelly Cloud) zu verbinden, habe ich hier die perfekte App für meine Zwecke gefunden. Die App findet die Geräte immer über die lokale IP-Adresse, egal ob im Heimnetz oder via VPN. Mit einem Backup kann man Räume und Geräte leicht auf ein anderes Mobilgerät übertragen - ohne Cloud- oder Anmeldezwang. ### 5/5 — Top App *2023-12-26* Wirklich eine sehr übersichtliche und intuitive App zur Steuerung der Shelly‘s. Frage: Gibt es bereits eine Möglichkeit Alexa einzubinden für die Sprachsteuerung? ### 5/5 — Shelly Home is awesome *2023-11-06, version 2.1.0* I have to admit that I have a strong preference for this application over the Shelly app it originated from. The incredibly fast start-up time is an absolute delight, enabling me to activate my device within a matter of seconds. On the rare occasion when I faced an issue with a new device not appearing, I reached out to Dirk for assistance, and he promptly resolved the problem in just a few minutes. If you haven't had the chance to explore this app yet, I highly recommend giving it a shot. Trust me, it's pretty amazing. ### 5/5 — Einbindung von Shellie’s im Repeater Mode *2023-10-04* Ich bin super zufrieden mit der App. Sie ist sehr übersichtlich, intuitiv und schnell. Ich würde mir jedoch folgende Funktion sehr wünschen. Die neuen plus-Geräte haben einen Repeater-Modus und die damit verbundenen Geräte sind dann im Browser unter der Adresse des Repeaters + Port (fortlaufende Nummer) erreichbar. Leider sind die Geräte damit nicht mehr in der App sichtbar. Nur leider benötige ich diese Repeater-Funktion… **Developer response:** Danke für das Feedback. Die lokale Steuerung von Shellys im Repeater Mode teste ich gerade und wird demnächst ausgerollt. MfG Dirk Gausmann ### 5/5 — Beste App für den Shelly Betrieb ohne Cloud *2023-04-27* Habe Shelly 1/1 plus und 1L im Einsatz. Jegliche Bedienung und Anzeige von Temperaturen und Feuchtigkeit möglich. Unterstütze die App gerne weiter… **Developer response:** Bitte kontaktieren Sie mich bei per Mail. Das geht schneller und ich kann das Problem besser analysieren. Benötige hier noch ein paar weitere Informationen (Screenshots wären auch hilfreich) MfG Dirk Gausmann Edit: Fehler sollte in 2.0.18 behoben sein. Bitte um Feedback ### 5/5 — works better than Shelly’s own app *2023-04-22, version 2.0.17* was able to add device here - but not on Shelly’s. Super happy. As a bonus, it then did show up (maybe that should not have been a surprise) in Shelly’s app. I give it 5 stars for that reason alone. That said, there is some room for improvement on the dashboard editing ## Frequently asked questions about Shelly Home ### What does this app do?
