★ ★ ★ Wallflower Overview

 

What is Wallflower? Wallflower is an app that turns an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch into an interactive control panel on the wall, optimized for running 24/7. It is based on HomeKit and supports various smart home devices. The interface is optimized to be looked at from far away, and all sensor data is drawn into the same graph. The app is protected with a passcode or biometric authentication, and there is no tracking or invasive 3rd party frameworks.

2. * We optimized for all possible screen sizes and orientations, polished animations, made sure it works on old devices, created icons and even localized the power outlets, so you see the symbol that’s familiar in your country.

Top Pcmac Reviews

  • Honestly a huge fan and subscribed...

    By jredash0216 (Pcmac user)

    ...But I’ve been asking for help via email and constantly getting bouncebacks saying they’ve been classified as junk. Can someone please contact me?
  • Attention to detail

    By Zac Schellhardt (Pcmac user)

    From a design perspective, this app is wonderful (even if I may have tweaked some of their decisions). I understand the reasoning for making the screen default to a single room, but really appreciate that they allowed zones to also be used as default — in an open concept home it’s essential to see the kitchen alongside dining, etc. Beyond being “just a skin” on HomeKit (which is a ridiculous statement— I’ve been keeping the default Home app open on an iPad for the last year, and this app blows it away), there are a couple additional features I like, the coolest of which is how the app uses the camera to detect light and faces, in order to brighten or change colors. It’s also convenient that the app itself forces the screen to stay on (so people don’t have to fiddle with any auto sleep settings), and I realize it’s silly, but having a clock there is actually useful. I also like the subtle error indication that shows if devices can’t be updated. People moaning about the price is to be expected. If you want to see what happens to apps with a one time fee, just take a look at Status Board by Panic (a very well respected and award-winning app maker) — the app cost $15 or $20, was beautiful, and was nonexistent a year or two after launch, because there wasn’t enough incoming cash. Seems to me that if you’re spending half a grand on an iPad and a nice wall mount (not to mention thousands on hubs, bulbs, etc), then $48/year is a steal. Even the previously-free tile board apps for SmartThings now charge a monthly fee. Leaving a 1-star review because you [incorrectly] disagree with a business model is the epitome of bad karma. In summary, the app is beautiful, the first version is already great for my use case (a wall mounted iPad using HomeKit as a front-end for Home Assistant), and I’m looking forward to seeing what the developers add to it. To the developers: consider split screen support on iPads in lieu of some modularity. I’d hate for you to invest in, say, Sonos support when I could just as easily run the Sonos app side by side with yours! Keep up the good work!
  • Ridiculous

    By Cwavig (Pcmac user)

    Forcing someone to pay 48$ for an app that comparable to others for far less is ridiculous. It's a little better then himekit and runs 24hr.
  • Demands a subscription

    By Wolfsbane19 (Pcmac user)

    This is an app that I would have given a one-time payment for, but they’re demanding you pay a subscription.
