## What is Zumungo?

Zumungo lets you talk to your home and hear it answer. Tap the microphone and speak naturally — "Turn off the kitchen lights," "Is the garage closed?", "Set the bedroom to 70 degrees" — and Zumungo replies out loud.

Zumungo is the companion app for the Zumungo home-automation system. It connects to your own Zumungo home and puts natural-voice control and a clean, browsable view of every room and device in your pocket.

FEATURES
• Talk to your home — speak a request, hear a spoken reply.
• Browse by floor and room, or search any room by name.
• See every device in a room and control it: lights, switches, dimmers, shades and curtains, locks, fans, thermostats, media players and whole-house audio, and grouped devices.
• Run your events and scenes with a single tap.
• Works on your home Wi-Fi, and from anywhere when remote access is enabled.

REQUIREMENTS
Zumungo requires a Zumungo home-automation system on your network and your Zumungo password to sign in. Without a Zumungo system there is nothing for the app to connect to.

YOUR PRIVACY
Speech is turned into text on your device. Only the text of your request is sent to your own Zumungo home to act on it. Nothing is sent to us.

### 5/5 — Pretty good

*2026-07-16*

Pretty good. Can command my home automation devices with natural language.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2026-07-09*

I moved from Homeseer to Zumungo and was amazed how easy and versatile Zumungo is. No need for plugins as Zumungo supports every brand that I have in the house. Creating events is easy with few clicks.  Camera triggers and recordings do work although I do have some problems with face and license plate recognition. Most importantly everything is AI driven you can talk to your home literally.

• Talk hands-free: turn on "Hands-free start" in Settings, map your iPhone's Action Button or Back Tap to open Zumungo, and just speak.
• Smarter listening: a new "Listening patience" setting lets you pause mid-sentence without being cut off, and the microphone recovers automatically from recognition glitches.
• Type instead of talk: a keyboard button next to Talk sends typed messages through the same assistant.
• Live conversation: replies and follow-up updates from your home now thread into the chat as they arrive.
• New: Geofencing (optional, per phone). Enroll under your name and your home gets "‹Name› Present" and "‹Name› Away" devices for your automations — arrivals detected within seconds. Only arrived/left is ever sent; your location never leaves your phone.
