Have you ever wanted to operate your home's gate using your smartphone? or to turn off all the lights with a single command? From today with the app BeMOVE by Benincà you can manage your automations or devices (such as gates, blinds, lights, ...) remotely, via smartphone or tablet. Through the communication with the HOOP Benincà gateway, it is possible to send commands or simply to check the status of the connected automations - for example: "did I turn off the lights before leaving home?" Or "Is the gate closed?". Quick and easy system configuration thanks to the integrated installation guides and tutorials (step-by-step). You can manage and enter many HOOP gateways and for each one of them you can choose an icon, name it and set a security PIN. For each HOOP gateway it is also possible to associate different roles and access modes for each one of the users. There are three setting modes available: OPEN MODE, without any restrictions; SECURITY MODE, the Master user can manage and set restrictions for the Slave users; OFFLINE MODE, to be used in case there is no internet connection. Advanced programming features are also available, such as the management of scheduled events, access time frames for specific user on certain devices or, again, the command via smartphone's GPS position. In addition, we have implemented the possibility to manage HOOP and pro.UP gateways equipped with a simplified connection to the control panels. We also optimised the authorisation management to allow the app to use the GPS signal and introduced a flag to send the command automatically when the smartphone enters the defined area. Furthermore, we have improved safety notifications related to the change of status and introduced the “User profile” section to allow users to manage their accounts from the app. We have also integrated pro.UP management functions even for remote diagnostics. This way, the installation’s owner can authorise the installer to access the installed pro.UP remotely to set the authorisation duration or delete it at any time, and change the authorised installer whenever they want.

The sun belongs to everyone — and Solmeus shows you what your share of it is worth. Engineering-grade precision in your iPhone. Personalised by what you actually have — your surface, your angle, your shadows, your surroundings, your bill. Not by your postcode. Free for everyone, no ads. Point your iPhone at any surface — a roof, a facade, a carport, a plot of land — and in 30 seconds Solmeus measures it, captures the sky and obstacles around it, and shows how much energy solar panels would generate there, how much they would save you each year, and when they would pay back. WHY THIS ISN'T AN ONLINE CALCULATOR Online calculators guess your roof from a satellite photo and use typical consumption. They miss the trees, the obstacles, the shadows that drop half your morning yield. Solmeus measures your actual surface, scans your obstacles, reads your real bill if you give it one. That's the difference between "solar should pay back in about 8 years for homes like yours" and "X kWh and Y years on this exact roof at this exact azimuth with this exact shadow." FREE FOR PERSONAL USE — IN FULL Solmeus is fully free for homeowners and anyone evaluating solar on their own surface — every feature available, no ads, no in-app purchases gating the report, no daily limits, no paywall. The Pro tier exists separately for solar installers and businesses; it changes nothing for personal users. PRECISION YOU CAN STAND BEHIND - AR surface measurement — your iPhone camera (and LiDAR, when available) measures area, tilt and orientation with sub-degree precision - Sky and obstacle scan — records the trees, buildings and obstacles around your site to model shading through the day - Honest physics, hour by hour — for every hour of the year Solmeus computes the real physics of sunlight on your surface: direct, diffuse and reflected radiation, the sun's path, shading from the obstacles you scanned - Two-layer climate data — authoritative satellite climate data combined with Solebo's own honest global climate model, built for Planet Mood: Earth, which also serves as a transparent offline baseline - Personalised by your bill — optionally scan or upload your electricity bill; the estimate then uses your real tariff and consumption - Honest financial model — yearly generation, savings, payback, every assumption visible - Four scenarios — panels, panels + battery, grid export, full self-consumption - Report Quality score 0–100% — every report tells you how confident the estimate is and why - Shareable PDF report THE NAME Solmeus comes from Latin sol meus — "my sun". The sun above you is yours; you have the right to know what it's worth. PRIVACY BY DESIGN No ads. No analytics. No tracking. No third-party SDKs. No user account. Your camera scans, AR measurements and electricity bill content stay on your device. The only thing Solmeus sends off your phone is your approximate location, to a public European climate-data service, only to retrieve solar irradiance for your site.

LiDAR-equipped iPhones (iPhone 12 Pro and later) give the most precise measurements but are not required. IMPORTANT Figures shown by Solmeus are indicative estimates based on satellite climate data and the information you provide.
