--Are there any requirements?--
Starting with Homemanager 3 we support all Homebridge systems which use the Homebridge UI with V4.29.0 or newer and all HOOBS systems with V3.2.10 or newer. It doesn't matter anymore on which platform you have Homebridge or HOOBS installed.
Due to the close collaboration with the Homebridge team, new features or API changes will be implemented on time. The only thing you need to do is simply updating the app, we'll take care of the rest.
--What is Homebridge / HOOBS?--
Homebridge is an open source software written by a large community to provide HomeKit support for almost all smart devices on the market. Homebridge works as a bridge between your physical smart home devices and HomeKit. Once set up, you can control your non-certified HomeKit devices in any HomeKit app and with Siri.
HOOBS is an alternative to Homebridge, developed by "HOOBS Inc." whose focus is on hardware out-of-the-box solutions.
If you don't have a server running yet, you can find more information and interactive instructions right in the app.
--Does the app cost?--
Yes. Due to the large maintenance effort, support and new features being added all the time, we are unable to offer the app for free.
To get to know the app better, you can test everything 14 days free of charge, without any payment or in-app purchase.
After this time you can decide if you like what you have tested and have two licenses to choose from.
Licenses are lifetime, localized prices for your country can be viewed right here in the AppStore in the in-app purchases section.
--Is there a way to contribute?--
Yes, as we target a community-oriented concept, feedback and feature requests are always welcome. If you would like to help us with localizing the app into your native language or with beta testing, please don't hesitate to contact us.
