Descrizione
Wallflower turns an iPad or iPhone into an interactive control panel on the wall, for everyone to use.
* Wallflower is optimized for running 24/7 on your wall.
* Based on HomeKit: It supports lights, thermostats and ACs, switches, outlets, contact sensors (doors, windows), and sensors for temperature, humidity, air quality, particulate matter, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon dioxide, light intensity, air pressure and noise. And much more!
* The interface is optimized to be looked at from far away. When it is not in use for a while, some elements are hidden and the interface is simplified. Those elements show up again, when you approach the device. When it's dark in the room, Wallflower can turn the display way down.
* All sensor data is drawn into the same graph: Values from multiple sensors are merged intelligently.
* If you want to provide your guest with Home Wifi, provide a convenient button where they can join via QR code.
* Weather is displayed in a compact text form, including weather alerts if there are any. Detailed weather information, including charts, are just a tap away.
* Along with it, you can select calendars to display, so for example your family calendar is always in view for everyone, in the place where everyone looks. This way there is a quick glanceable way to see what's up, even while walking by.
* All issues for your smart home (like empty batteries, network problems, …) are conveniently displayed on the top.
* There is no tracking in the app. And no extra analytics beyond the anonymized basics that the AppStore provides for the users that opted in. There's no invasive 3rd party frameworks either. We don’t want your data, your home is yours, and yours alone.
* Settings are protected against unauthorized tinkering via a passcode or - if your device supports it - with your face or fingerprint. And after a while of not using it, it turns back to the main screen.
* Last, but not least: Wallflower makes a great and very accurate wall clock.
Wallflower requires a subscription to display weather, calendar or run with complex setups. However, you can try the home features without a subscription for one device of each kind (and 2 lights) at the same time. So you can try everything out as long as you want, and if you have a simple setup that might even be all you need!
And if you're not a fan of subscriptions, there is a one-time option to pay for the home features.
Novità
Versione 2.1
Headline feature of Wallflower 2.1 is something a lot of users asked for: A way to have the display completely off at night and turn on on demand.
For this Wallflower has a new setting that it does no longer prevent the display from locking, either always, between certain times, or when Guided Access mode is on.
But how does it unlock then? Glad you asked: You can set an iPad or iPhone into only displaying Wallflower by using „Guided Access“ from the systems accessibility features. If your device locks in this mode, unlocking does not require authorization. And receiving notifications bypasses the Lock Screen completely, the App just turns on and does not display the notification. So if you get a motion sensor and set the home app to receive notifications, a sleeping iPad on the wall just wakes up and displays Wallflower. Magic!
Also this release contains lots of bug fixes around light sensors, Weather updating, AppStore updates and others!
Valutazioni e recensioni
Auf guten Weg
Ich finde die App hat sehr viel Potential. Ich habe sie im Einsatz und funktioniert tadellos. Wenn sie weiterentwickelt wird und weitere Geräte gesteuert werden können (Nuki, Rollläden etc) dann gibts den 5. Stern

Vielen Dank! Die Unterstützung von mehr Geräten ist in Arbeit!
Application prometteuse, mais évolution beaucoup trop lente !
J’utilise cette application depuis un peu plus d’un mois. J’ai même souscrit l’abonnement annuel. Mais je vais y renoncer. Car en dépit des promesses alléchantes, l’application n’a pas évolué depuis le mois de septembre 2019 (nous sommes en janvier 2020).
Certes, elle est très joliment dessinée. Elle est agréable à consulter et à utiliser. Et il y a quelques fonctions utiles qui n’existent pas ailleurs. Mais en l’état actuel, elle n’offre pas suffisamment d’avantages par rapport à l’application Maison native d’iOS.
Le développeur a plein d’idées pour la faire évoluer, dit-il. (Météo locale, contrôle de la musique et de la radio ou de la TV, flux de notifications en provenance des réseaux sociaux, etc.) Et très peu de personnalisation possible. Mais en quatre mois rien n’est venu.
C’est dommage. Personnellement, je ne veux pas payer pour une application qui sera peut-être complète dans deux ou trois ans... mais complètement dépassée par la concurrence.

Hi! I answer in English if that's ok. Thanks for the feedback and thanks for supporting the app. I understand your frustration with the long wait for the new version – and it is also longer than I anticipated. But, for various reasons, I re-wrote the core of the HomeKit functionality, so I will be more flexible to extend the app in the future. Just as the app itself took 2 years to build, some work, especially if it is a massive re-construction like this, does not fit in convenient 1-release-a-month-schedules. Thanks for your understanding that sometimes things take a bit longer.
Kein Mehrwert
In jedem Raum ein Gerät das mit Strom versorgt werden muss. Genau dies sollte mit einer Smart-Steuerung vermieden werden.
Ein zentrales Gerät mit einem Grundriss und verschiebbaren Endgeräten wär viel sinnvoller.

Ich weiss nicht, wie du darauf kommst, dass du in jeden Raum ein Gerät hängen musst. Für die meisten Räume reichen herkömmliche Schalter. Wallflower ist eine "Raumsteuerung", natürlich macht das nicht in jedem Raum Sinn, sondern nur in Räumen mit der entsprechenden Ausstattung.
Unser Ziel ist es allerdings, Wallflower auch zu einer "Haussteuerung" weiterzuentwickeln. Das ist eine ziemlich komplexe Aufgabe und daher nicht Teil der allerersten Version. Daher würden wir uns freuen, wenn du weiter dabei bist und in Zukunft wieder vorbeischaust.
