Dashboard: HomeKit & RTSP

New in 2.4: an Apple Music player, audio for RTSP cameras and door unlatching on smart locks. You can now try Premium free for a week.

Turn a wall-mounted iPad into a control panel for your Apple Home smart home. Cameras, heating, lights, blinds, locks, weather and the family calendar on one screen.

CAMERAS • RTSP cameras outside HomeKit: standalone cameras that never reach Apple Home. Enter the stream address and the tile shows live video. Supports H.264 over RTSP: Hikvision, Dahua, Reolink, Axis, TP-Link Tapo and Synology restreams. • Camera discovery: the app scans your network — with ONVIF it finds the address itself, otherwise it tries the usual paths. • Audio for RTSP cameras (new): those with G.711 or AAC now have sound, switched on in the camera detail and off when you close it. • HomeKit cameras: auto-refreshing previews, the Live button switches them all to a live stream, listen and talk in the detail. Add an RTSP address for a sharper picture with no time limit. • Time-lapse from an RTSP camera: up to 12 hours, saved as one video in Photos. • Two cameras free, HomeKit and RTSP combined.

HOME • Thermostats: current and target temperature in half-degree steps; thermometers in °C and °F (2 free each). • Lights and switches: bulbs, outlets, fans and more, grouped by room; a Home app group as a single tile (4 free). Dimmable lights add brightness and color (Premium). • Blinds and shutters: position and slat tilt now in 1% steps, including Matter bridges — KNX/1Home (4 free). • Security: windows, doors, gates and sensors as one item with an Open / All closed state (4 free). Alarm with Home / Away / Night / Off modes, free and unlimited. • Sensors: humidity, air quality, water leak, smoke, CO/CO₂, light level and motion (4 free). • Scenes with one tap; an active scene stays highlighted as long as it matches your devices (2 free). • Weather with a six-day forecast. • New: each device shows its room in small type and can have its own icon.

LOCKS AND GATES Door locks, gates and garage doors (4 free). New: a tap opens a menu with separate lock and unlock, or open and close for gates. Supported locks (Nuki, tedee) can unlatch the door with a long press.

3D FLOOR PLAN (PREMIUM) Upload a render of your home and place devices on it — control them by tapping right in the plan. Thermostats show the temperature, open windows and doors glow orange. Up to five floors, custom icons. Tip: create the render from your floor plan in ChatGPT.

MUSIC (PREMIUM, NEW) An Apple Music player: your playlists, recently played and recommendations. Pick where it plays over AirPlay — a HomePod, for example. Requires an Apple Music subscription.

CALENDAR A weekly overview of your shared family calendar (three days on iPhone), the next event highlighted and countdowns to important days.

24/7 DISPLAY AND APPEARANCE The screen sleeps after inactivity and wakes on touch, the front camera or a HomeKit motion sensor. Light and dark mode follow your iPad, plus a new dark app icon. Custom background, icon and text colors, rearranged blocks (Premium).

BACKUP Save your setup to iCloud and load it on another device with the same Apple Account; with Premium you can also share it as a file.

PREMIUM (YEARLY SUBSCRIPTION, $9.99) Unlocks the 3D floor plan, music, light brightness and color, rearranging blocks, separate layouts for iPad and iPhone and sharing your backup as a file — and removes the count limits. The free version is not a trial.

PRIVACY The app collects no data and has no accounts or sign-up. Everything stays on your device; camera video travels directly over your network. The only outgoing service is weather, fetched anonymously.

The app is available in 14 languages — 2.4 adds British English, Swedish, Dutch and Hebrew.

Requires an iPad or iPhone with iOS 17 or later. Controlling devices needs a home set up in Apple Home; RTSP cameras work without one. Designed mainly for a wall-mounted iPad in landscape.
