Good with the potential to be great
bookworm_77
This app is user friendly with some great features. My 2 issues are the length of time it takes for the app to open, and the inability to schedule one device for different times each day. Aside from that, the convenience of controlling home functions from my phone is fantastic. Adjusting my thermostat as I hit the runway ensures I enter a warm or cool house upon my return!

It’s ok but could be better
Wiring byron
I’m a little worried there is been no updates for seven months. What is the reason you guys are not developing this app further?
I would like to see iPhone X support. Insteon is one of my few apps that is still not up to date on that.
Also this app is quite slow. When you open it you were definitely waiting for things to load. That shouldn’t be really happening in this day and age.
Seems to me as a company you guys have gone a little bit quiet. Which is definitely scary for someone with a system installed. I am an electrician and I’m also installing the systems in other peoples homes. So the lack of updates is a little concerning.

I'm using this with a mix of Insteon and X10 devices all over the house and detached shop, and its been working great so far and with some updates it'll be fantastic.
Being able to control lights, appliances and have notifications of motion and door access while miles away from home brings a whole new level of convenience and peace of mind.
