Features & Capabilities

Introducing a completely redesigned Insteon Director for Hub 2. This new app uses bold tiles for quick access to devices and scenes, adds one-touch actions to control multiple devices from a single screen, and makes favorites as easy as tapping a single icon. The Schedules view now shows daily activity and includes sunrise offsets, so scenes can run up to four hours before or after dawn or dusk. It also adds sensor check-in to alert you when battery or communication issues arise.

Expect faster performance across the app: near-instant login and device access, faster scene creation (in many cases up to 80% quicker), and easier scheduling that lets you run multiple devices at the same time. This release supports wired devices, plug-ins, bulbs, and sensors compatible with North American Hub 2 (2245-222) via Insteon Hub service.

User Reviews

Users praise ongoing improvements, expanded features, and better aesthetics, with Alexa integration and reliability for basic use. However, they repeatedly cite reliability/login issues, laggy or inaccurate status updates, a clunky UI, lack of iPad/HomeKit/third-party integration, and some bugs/regressions. The app is seen as essential for Insteon users when functioning, but enduring UX and stability hurdles, plus platform gaps, limit its consistency and appeal.

Pros

Ongoing improvements with new features that were previously limited to the hub app, showing an active roadmap from the new ownership.
Improved aesthetics and usability relative to earlier Insteon apps; many reviewers prefer the newer, cleaner UI (blue panel) and find it easier to use.
Reliable basic control and useful Alexa integration for hands-free control.
Active responsiveness to user feedback and a roadmap that suggests continued enhancements.
For Insteon users, Director is an essential, modern control option that consolidates the system in a single app.

Cons

Color scheme is jarring (bright yellow) and users want a color-change option or a revert to a calmer/older scheme.
UI/UX and status refresh issues: tiles are large, icons are lacking, and device states often fail to refresh in real time; overall status updates can be unreliable.
Reliability and access problems: frequent login issues, accounts being logged out, and reports of the service/hub going offline or being unavailable.
Platform and integration gaps: no native iPad version, no HomeKit or broad third-party integrations, and limited camera support in this version.
Occasional regressions/bugs, such as broken device-adding by Insteon ID after updates and features that feel best used with the old app.

Recent reviews

The functionality and layout in the app is good, but this bright yellow is jarring and hard to look at. You should’ve left the old collar scheme or introduce an option to change it because this yellow is gross.

I love all of the improvements and the system keeps getting better. I much prefer the blue panel color over the yellow. Maybe the developers can add a color chg option. Keep up the good work.
