Works GREAT!?

The icons update correctly now with this update. OpenHAB is GREAT for interfacing with Arduino using the MQTT protocol!! Note to the developer: It would be nice if the settings were embedded in the iOS settings app, under "openHAB", so that its hidden within the app. Also the whole screen scrolls to easily when trying to adjust a slider/dimmer. Great job on the app! It's awesome!
Amazing home automation framework

Great app. Works perfectly.

I have it work with my home and office. This is not for beginners. You need to have a basic understanding of programming. It would be great if multi site option was available. Overall great app. Keep up the good work. Thank you
Great new version!

It now supports my.openHAB notification history and have a nice navigation drawer! ? It would be nice to update screenshots though ?
Complete Waste of Time

Good luck ever getting this to work. It's the usual incompetent hack put together by FOSS types, and utterly uninterested in usability. You can't do anything in the app till you register at their web site. After poking around their for fifteen minutes you'll eventually find what looks like a registration page except in addition to the usual email/password info it wants you to supply a "shared secret" and a "UUID" -- and good luck knowing what it expects either of those to be. Once you get past that hurdle, you can log in via the iOS app? Oh no. Apparently you now need to configure some URLs in the app. After making various guesses as to what these were, I was rewarded, on each attempt, with sme sort of failure message. At this point I gave up and concluded that life was really too short to deal with these people any longer.
Great interface to OpenHAB

Works perfectly, but it does require having an OpenHAB server running at your residence. Setup is fairly straightforward- and help can always be found on the community support forum. Would love to see an Apple Watch app come with this app though! -1 star for lack of support for the Apple Watch.
App works great for those already using OpenHAB

If you are already an user of OpenHAB, this app is a good addition to the web version. This is not for newbies. There are reviews here complaining how the App is difficult to setup and what not. This is not an app for people who knows nothing about OpenHAB. If you want a do it for me solution, go with the Samsung SmartThings. If you want a do it myself solution, give OpenHAB (the web version) a try first.
