Ratings and Reviews
No multiple OpenHAB locations??
The app is very stable and works brilliantly in fairness but one massive drawback and criticism is that it only supports and points to one OpenHAB installation pointing to only one server. If you wanted to monitor two locations or properties with two or more OpenHAB installations this app won’t support it?? Surely it wouldn’t be that complicated to have this feature and you could have a location profile? This feature is a definite must have!!
All good except…
Really good and solid App.
Only improvement would be to have more entries in the notification tab. That‘s limited to only 20 entries.
OpenHAB - learning curve but worth it
OpenHAB is a lot of work to set up if you are not used to coding or hacking. Most people interested in computers will be able to get stuff up and running but it's not for non-technical people. Mind you, home automation probably only interests you if you are that way inclined.
Anyway, the app. I cannot praise this app highly enough. It's ROCK solid, horrendously customisable and flexible (all customisations are made through OpenHAB server). The app is a 'dumb' portal to your server configuration but this is ultimately a wonderful thing.
Onsite and remote transitioning is seamless, the app is lightning fast with no delays or glitches, and the interface is clean.
I've used the app daily for months now and have never experienced a single bug. How amazing is that?
All I can say to the developers is - please - don't change a thing!
Of course - upgrades are inevitable, but keeping this app working like a dream will be key to the growth of OpenHAB as a platform - as the glue that ties the world's connected homes together.
Long may this project continue!
