ROAMiQ is the iPhone app for the ROAMiQ Control Hub, the smart control system for RVs, campervans and off-grid builds. It puts your rig's alerts, status and scenes on your Lock Screen, Home Screen and in Siri, and opens your hub's full dashboard in one tap. Requires a ROAMiQ Control Hub. The app connects to a ROAMiQ hub installed in your vehicle or cabin and does nothing without one. What you can see and control depends on the equipment connected to your hub. BUILT FOR IPHONE Live Activities Your hub's automations can put a live card on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island: a checkout-day checklist, a countdown to quiet hours, a battery gauge, a tank alert. Cards update in place and keep running with the app closed. When a reading stops updating, ROAMiQ removes the number instead of showing a stale one. Buttons that turn something off, like Stop pump, work right from the Lock Screen. Anything that starts, opens or unlocks asks you to open ROAMiQ first. Alerts Get notified when your hub needs you, even when ROAMiQ is closed. Time-sensitive alerts can break through Focus. Long-press an alert to acknowledge it or jump straight to your system. You choose which hubs send alerts to this iPhone. Widgets and Controls See on the Home Screen, the Lock Screen or in StandBy whether your system is reachable, along with its recent alerts. Run a scene or script from a widget, or add a Control to Control Center, the Lock Screen or the Action button. A Control asks for Face ID before it runs anything. Siri and Shortcuts "Run Goodnight with ROAMiQ." "Check ROAMiQ." Your scenes and scripts answer to Siri with nothing to set up, and they appear in the Shortcuts app. Arrive and leave Let a hub know when you get there or head out, so its automations can react. It is off until you turn it on, and you set it per hub: share only the name of the place, like Home, or your exact position. In the background ROAMiQ checks only for arrivals, departures and big moves, never continuous GPS. Your location goes only to your own hub. Phone status Share this iPhone's battery level, charging state and Low Power Mode with a hub, for dashboards and automations. Off until you turn it on. Face ID app lock Require Face ID or your passcode to open ROAMiQ. The app locks again as soon as you leave it, and hides its contents in the app switcher. YOUR WHOLE SYSTEM, ONE TAP AWAY Open ROAMiQ and your hub's dashboard is right there, with everything your hub controls and every automation you have set up. The ROAMiQ Control Hub runs Home Assistant. The app opens your hub's own dashboard, already signed in, with a ROAMiQ menu at the bottom of the screen for switching hubs and settings. On your hub's network, ROAMiQ finds the hub and connects to it directly, without going through the internet. Away from it, ROAMiQ connects through ROAMiQ Cloud remote access, an optional service for your hub. More than one hub? Add each one, choose which opens at launch, and give each its own alerts, location and phone status choices. PRIVACY No ads, no tracking and no third-party analytics.
