Control your connected home, based on the VIEW IoT smart systems integrated system, with a simple, user-friendly interface: all the functions of a smart home are at your fingertips from the first power-on and in complete safety, once you have entered your access credentials, generated on the VIMAR Cloud portal. The App does not require any configuration because it inherits the programming already performed by the professional electrical installer with the various configuration tools of the various systems installed in the building (VIEW Wireless or By-me Plus, By-alarm, Elvox video door entry system, Elvox cameras). The functions managed using the VIEW APP, both locally and remotely, are: lights, curtains and roller shutters, climate control, electricity (consumption, production and anti-blackout), music and audio, video door entry system, burglar alarm, cameras, sprinkler system, sensors/contacts (e.g. for technical alarms), advanced logic programmes and scenarios for centralised control of all smart functions. Everything can even be controlled by means of smart speakers! Using the VIEW APP, you can freely create scenarios, customise a favourites page for direct access to the most frequent functions, customise climate control and sprinkler system programmes with maximum flexibility, manage users and permissions associated with the system, add control of Philips Hue system light bulbs and LED strips, and select the push notifications that you want to receive. From answering the video entryphone, to controlling the temperature of the home: any function can be conveniently controlled remotely from a single interface, whether in your own home or anywhere else in the world, thanks to the security guaranteed by the Vimar cloud. The interface is organised to allow user-friendly browsing by function (“Objects”) or by environment (“Rooms”): popular icons used in the main operating systems, customisable labels and swipe gesture controls help to make the Vimar home automation system extremely user-friendly. The App works only in association with the home automation/video door entry/burglar alarm gateways present in the system and only features the functions that the respective gateways make available (for details, please refer to the VIEW App user manual available on the Vimar website in the Download/Software/VIEW PRO section).

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Comelit CCTV at none against Vimar VIEW's 6. Comelit CCTV also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 17.0). Vimar VIEW's advantage is review sentiment (30% vs 0%) and ratings volume (234 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Vimar VIEW sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per year. Comelit CCTV asks for nothing beyond the download.
Comelit CCTV holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vimar VIEW has 234 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of Vimar VIEW's written reviews are positive against 0% of Comelit CCTV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Vimar VIEW ships an update every 6 weeks, Comelit CCTV every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 3, 2026 respectively.
