CresTap vs GEST Connect

CresTap is designed to control your Crestron automation system using Apple Watch. CresTap integrates natively with any 2, 3 and 4-Series control processor via the standard XPanel communication protocol. In addition you can run any combination of Digital, Analog and Serial commands using the power of Siri Shortcuts. Turn on your lights automatically when you arrive home or add your favorite scenes to your iPhone Home Screen for example (You can leverage the power of CresTap Siri Shortcuts even without an Apple Watch). ***CresTap connects to Crestron via a paired iPhone, please note that your Watch needs to be in (Bluetooth or Wi-Fi) range of the paired iPhone. Features include; -Standard XPanel protocol eliminates the need for custom code. -Add a shortcut to CresTap on your favorite Apple Watch watch face. -Adapt the look and feel of the Watch App by customizing button and icon colors right from within the iPhone App. -Large set of documented built in icons to choose from. -Real time control for button pushes and feedback. -Up to 10 customizable buttons can be configured. -Connect via Wi-Fi or Mobile (TCP port forwarding may be required). SSL/TLS support for secure connections. -Use device discovery to scan your local network for Crestron devices. CresTap is simply setup by adding a standard XPanel symbol in your SIMPL Windows program and setting up button text and icon signals. Inside the iPhone app you will find sample code to help you get started. CresTap quickly connects to your control system after configuring connection details in the iPhone App and synchronizes automatically with your XPanel symbol running on your control processor upon connection. Please note that the IPID number of the SIMPL Windows symbol must match the IPID defined within CresTap. An icon reference pdf is built into CresTap as well as sample 2, 3 and 4-Series control system programs.
