Ratings and Reviews
Nice App But
It’s a nice app I like how you can achieve so much more than the standard home app.
However I can’t link my TV into this app. It works just fine in the native home app but home+ won’t pick it up.
Also a little annoyed I can’t find any help of contact the developer with this issue.

Hi, unfortunately Apple doesn’t allow 3rd-party apps to access certain devices which includes the Apple TV, HomePod, and HomeKit-enabled TVs.

Potentially powerful, hard to use
This app provides useful automation tools, and has visual polish, but the baffling decision to lay out each individual button from any dimmer switch (or other switch) renders the app almost impossible to use. If you have a switch for most rooms, and a bunch of lights, the app presents an undifferentiated mass of icons - and the text display for each is so short you can’t tell what any button does. It’s completely bonkers, there is no way to turn it off, and the developer hasn’t responded when I wrote to ask about it.
Consider using this for programming some specific automations maybe, but forget it if you want to use it to actually control your lights. A real shame.
App is pointless on iOS 16
For a premium app like this, it’s disappointing it hasn’t been updated in over 4 months (in which time a whole new iOS has been released). I’ve noticed even basic things like filing automations into folders has now broken a bunch of my automations. The only way to fix seems to be rebuilding them from scratch (they’re not complicated, but just a lot of them). Now I’ve paid for a premium app that was supposed to help keep things organised and easy, instead it’s done the complete opposite! Very disappointing. How do I get my money back and restore all my broken automations!?
Developer Response ,
Hi hlohv, there will be a new version of Home+ very soon. Regarding the broken automations, I can only say that there seems to be problems with automations since iOS 16.
This has nothing to do with the app, but more about problems with home hubs since iOS 16. You have to recreate the automations to make the work again. In Home+ you can simply duplicate an automation as save it again. Then remove the original automations. This seems to work for most people. –Matthias
