Valet Bridge
Your home, from the car
Free · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
Valet puts your home's controls where you actually are — the car, the Home Screen, Siri, and your wrist.
Valet pairs with the free Valet Bridge driver running on an RTI XP-series control processor. Your installer (or you) wires the systems you care about — garage, alarm, lighting, spa, audio — into simple named buttons and live status values, and Valet carries them everywhere:
• CARPLAY — a glanceable grid of your arrival-and-departure actions with live "active" rings, plus a status list in the order you choose. Fired commands flash confirmation from the driver itself, not wishful thinking.
• FIRE-AND-CONFIRM — actions that matter (closing the garage, arming the alarm) show a Live Activity that tracks the real sensor until it confirms — on the Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, CarPlay Dashboard, and Apple Watch.
• ALERTS — get notified when something stays wrong: "Garage open for 10 minutes." Alerts mirror to Apple Watch automatically.
• APPLE WATCH — a native watch app with your device cards, live status, haptic confirmations, Double Tap support, and a watch-face complication.
• WIDGETS AND SIRI — an interactive Home Screen widget (which also appears in CarPlay on iOS 26) and App Intents for Siri and Shortcuts.
• PRIVATE BY DESIGN — Valet talks directly to your processor on your own network (or your own VPN). No cloud account, no subscription, no data collection. Authentication uses a shared secret with HMAC-SHA256.
Requires an RTI XP-series processor running the free Valet Bridge driver. No system yet? Tap "Try the Demo" in Settings and explore a simulated house — every feature works, including CarPlay.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• Per-button status: any card button can now watch its own On/Off, so an "Off" button lights up when the thing is actually off — and the garage's Open button lights when the door is actually open.
• Connection at a glance: a green Online / red Offline pill on the Tiles screen, and in CarPlay the Buttons tab itself shows the connection state — so a dead link is visible before you tap.
• Slot pickers now show your device and tile names instead of bare numbers.
• Fixed the Apple Watch app icon appearing blank in the iPhone Watch app.
