Awesome. Glad you like it. Version 3.0 will offer some features you might find useful, such as the ability to add hours of operation to beacon or geofence add ons for your actions.

If you are enjoying the app, please leave a review as sales of the app are starting to flag.

Home Remote 3.0 is out which has some great features, even ones that will benefit Indigo users.

Geofence radius is increased to 5 KM, along with being able to set hours of operation including sunrise and sunset.
You can now also set beacons to have hours of operation including sunrise and sunset.

3D Touch support, so you can launch actions right from the Home Screen.

Fine grain slider control by tapping either side of the drag handle.

The app is full accessible, for those of you with visual impairments.
Improvements for those with color blindness.

After the latest update, when I try to launch Home Remote on my iPhone 6, the app crashes immediately. Anyone else having this problem?

Home Remote no longer in iOS App Store?

The chap here is; I wonder if Gary pulled it whilst he fixes it?

Oddly there's a new app on the store called Home Remote that was published last week.

With a really poor 2-page developers website that does nothing.

Something fishy going on here.

Wonder if they've registered a copyright/patent in the past and now claiming on it, in which case Gary will have to rename.

Re: Home Remote for iOS News

I guess we'll have to wait and see what Gary chimes in with. I'm hoping it's nothing serious, he's created a really awesome app!

Re: Home Remote for iOS News

Hey guys, nothing bad going on, I dropped the ball and totally buggered up. Apologies to anyone his is affecting. I had a bad update queued, and released it rather than cancelling it. You can't reverse this process, so I pull the app until an update is out.

I have to go through beta review, but as soon as its approved I will put a beta out, the pass the time that the main app is in reviews.

Sorry for not shipping in sooner, real life is very busy right now with a new baby.

I expect Home Remote to be back in the store in 2 days, with beta access restored tomorrow.

If you need beta access and aren't on the list then let me know.

Again, sorry.

G

Ah good, end of mystery! You might want to look into that imposter app.. When you've got 5 mins spare from looking after the baby :)

I had a quick look, I'm surprised the system let them use that name, although I doubt there is much that can be done if Apple allow it. Thanks for the heads up though.
