HomeBar is the AI-powered companion that turns your HomeKit setup into a home that actually feels smart. Describe an automation — "when it starts raining, close the garage and turn off the sprinklers" — and HomeBar builds it. Get daily summaries of what's working, see which device is dragging down your reliability, automation and device logs track every change, and track every watt across your home. Pair it with HomeBar for Mac to unlock the full experience, or use it standalone for powerful on-the-go control that goes far beyond what Apple's Home app offers. AI-POWERED AUTOMATIONS Describe what you want in plain English -- "Turn off all lights when I leave home, but only on weekdays" -- and HomeBar's AI builds the automation for you. Powered by Claude, the AI Automation Builder translates your intent into precise HomeKit triggers, conditions, and actions. SMART DEVICE FILTERS Build custom device views using natural language. Type "lights that are on upstairs" or "devices using more than 100 watts" and HomeBar creates the filter instantly. Save it for one-tap access. INTERACTIVE WIDGETS Home Screen widgets with device toggles, dimmer sliders, and scene activation. Lock Screen widgets for quick device state and scene launch. StandBy mode dashboard with sensor readings at a glance. DEEP DIAGNOSTICS & LOGS See exactly why your automations fail. A searchable log of every automation attempt shows which conditions passed or failed, and why. Push notifications alert you to repeated failures even when you're away from your Mac. DEVICE HEALTH DASHBOARD One screen showing every device that needs attention -- unreachable accessories, low battery, firmware updates, and broken automation references. Push notifications for new issues. ENERGY MONITORING & COST INTELLIGENCE Track real-time power draw, per-device energy breakdowns, and projected costs against your utility rate. Weekly AI recommendations tell you exactly where to save. AI ANOMALY DETECTION Proactive monitoring catches what you miss -- doors left open, energy spikes, sensors going offline. Daily smart summaries and pattern-based automation suggestions delivered right to your iPhone. MATTER NATIVE HomeBar surfaces Matter device data that HomeKit's own UI doesn't show -- real-time power, energy, and cluster data from Thread and Wi-Fi accessories. SENSOR HISTORY & CHARTS Interactive time-series charts for every sensor. Works with all brands, not just Eve hardware. Compare sensors across rooms with swipe-to-zoom and CSV export. BACKUP & RESTORE View and manage HomeKit backups created on your Mac. Full restore guidance with per-device checklists. NFC AUTOMATION TRIGGERS Tap a standard NFC tag to trigger any HomeKit scene or automation. No custom hardware needed -- just writable NFC tags. SIRI SHORTCUTS Full Shortcuts integration for building custom workflows with HomeBar actions. SYNCS WITH MAC CloudKit sync keeps your automation logs, sensor history, and folder assignments in perfect sync between Mac and iPhone. Delta sync minimizes cellular data usage. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT All data stays on your device. No cloud accounts required. AI features send only device names and types -- never audio, video, or location. PRICING HomeBar is free to download with powerful core features. Unlock Pro ($3.99/mo or $34/yr) for advanced automations, diagnostics, and backup.
