    Not cool to mandate a signup before showing what your app can do.

    Contacting support for help is usless as you just get the message "Our support team is dedicated to fixing issues and improving Controller for HomeKit. Unfortunately, due to the high volume of support requests, we can no longer provide personal consultation for HomeKit automation or device setup." Buy at your ownr risk!
  • Great app, great support

    Controller makes HomeKit tolerable. There are so many missing features in the native Home app, but with Controller I can actually get HomeKit to do what I need it to do! The support is amazing. I’ve run into a couple of bugs, and the support team has fixed them quickly. Why can’t all app support be like this?
  • Great Tool for the job

    I'm going to respond to other reviews indirectly in my review. Tools are best when you use the best tool for the job. Controller is not a tool for viewing HomeKit cameras (it can do that, but maybe a smaller and easier tool would be a better fit if that's what you are looking for). Controller is a tool for diving deep into what HomeKit is doing "under the hood." It gives access to many features which are hidden/inaccessible from the Home.app from Apple. For most people, Home.app will be enough. If you want to create automations based on attributes in your accessories which Home.app doesn't recognize, you need Controller. I develop HomeKit bridges. I need access to features that Home.app doesn't give. I need to backup and restore my large (90 accessories) config frequently. Controller does this very well. I've not tried the workflows. But that looks interesting too. Controller is a great tool, make sure it is the tool for the job you are doing.

    I trusted what the advertisement said “we will let you know in plenty of time that your one week trial is expiring so you can cancel it ahead of time” I never got a notice and have been charged for a program I'm not going to use. 😔
  • Limited Functionality for the Money

    Don't pay up front without looking into what the app actually offers!! Doesn't really deliver.
  • Great, except…

    Awesome app, and love how much detail and can get out of my HK-compatible third party switches and devices. However, the app can’t talk to or get data from any of my HomePods which are a key component of my system. This is a big limiter.
  • Doesn’t work

    The main reason I bought this app was because it allowed me to have multiple triggers in the automations and still be able to convert them to shortcut in the home app. This feature stopped working a week ago. It doesn’t trigger the automation. And there is no way to get support from the devs. I did not find any link way to get help on their website either.
  • Do not download do not install

    I downloaded installed it, and after that, I could not get my HomeKit to work at all. I’ve tried reinstall I still can’t get it to work. This is a piece of crap. Do not use it. It will mess your whole HomeKit system up.
  • Why has my lifetime purchase been "revoked"?

    Now I need to buy a yearly subscription in addition? Not very happy. Maybe someone could explain this top me??? I don't see anywhere to contact customer support.
