With LOXONE, you get all the features for your smart building at a glance in a single app – clearly laid out and easy to use. Control lighting, music, energy management, security and much more anytime, anywhere. Your app. Your style: Make the LOXONE App truly yours. Choose between two Themes – our signature Highlight Theme with the bold green header, or the subtle Neutral Theme with a dark header. With the new Light Mode, the app adapts to your preference: light, dark, or automatically matched to your system settings. Tailored precisely to your needs: Set up the LOXONE App exactly how you want it: set your favourites, create your own automations and design practical scenes for your building. Push notifications: Whether critical alarms such as burglary or practical reminders such as an open window when leaving the house – the LOXONE App notifies you in real time on all devices where you want it. Automatic Designer: Easily create your own logic – no programming knowledge required. Example: "When the sun rises AND it is a weekday, THEN turn on the coffee machine." Important information: The LOXONE App is used in conjunction with a LOXONE Miniserver. We recommend having the LOXONE Miniserver installed and configured and the LOXONE App set up by a certified LOXONE Partner. To ensure external access to the LOXONE App, the relevant settings must be made by a LOXONE Partner.
