iControl Web: HTTP Remote Control for Home Automation with Raspberry Pi, Arduino and more App Reviews

Great app, very clean build. Im just wishing for more features like: Push buttons , sliders,text boxes and labels. * Push buttons would make a lot more sense with things with involving motors. * Sliders are my favorite when it comes to brightness/speed controls (add joysticks maybe?). * Text boxes would help sending custom messages possible (infinite possibilities) * Labels would add monitoring capabilities which are not less than freaking awesome. I would consider buying a paid version of the app. I love how simple and clean it is. Im grateful still, thank you so much sir.

This is the best app ever, i use to control my mpv media player on my linux when i watch movies to control the volume, play/pause, forward/backward using python http server. The interface cant more simple and awesome, and configuration is surprisingly easy. Great idea for the app.

Application very convenient, works perfectly and developer listening to any questions. I recomende.

Great idea! I am using this app to enable/disable the recording my MOBOTIX cameras. Just some few suggestions/open wishes additional: - color of buttons changeable - indicator of current status like on or off Looking forward to further version.

Tolles Programm - macht was es soll - empfehlenswert

I like this app very much and I am very surprised its free! For future extension I would like to add a text input box. This would be extremely helpful to send variable text messages to a connected device. Very good job!

I own an ISY-994i which controls my Insteon lights, Z-Wave locks and iTach infrared devices. With this app and the ISYs HTTP API, I was able to build a remote with buttons to control everything. Looks good, too! Feature requests: Itd be nice if there were a few more button layouts (directional pad +) and some way to show status on supported devices.

Please add a info type of object, what get info from data answer on url get request, answer on json/xml/text format. Value update on click or timer(then app on a screen, and screen have info object). Thanks.

I use it to control my tv, because my remote always lost!

This is a nice app. It would be even better if it was updated for iOS 7 design and also maybe have some tabbed interface in case we need to separate buttons in sections, and perhaps add more controls and ability to get feedback from http request (say you switch fan on, and of theres error, then it would stay as off)

Great design; the json configuration idea is genius. No in app ability to mess with URL or API keys or any other settings. I love your work! Thank you!

Very cool app. I used an online JSON editor to design a user interface to interact with my Arduino. I uploaded the gui.json to my iphone and was up and running really quickly, despite never working with JSON before.

The app looks like a perfect fit for a interface between my lirc_web running on my raspi. However I am having problems getting a post to work.

Great app for the price (free). Perfect http requests to control devices (as suggested) and customizable on phone and watch. Thanks!

This app is exactly what I have been looking for. Try it with the Control4 system (free web events driver to accept HTTP commands on the Control4 side), amazing! Two requests: 1) Add a red dot as a color option on the watch (or more colors if you can), for my security system label. 2) Add the ability to load an image from the web (like an IP camera image). Thank you! Will easily be my most used watch app!

Ive been wanting an app like this for a long time. The JSON config is convenient and the sample is thorough. I use it to call HTTP APIs from my Apple Watch and it works like a charm.

Awesome app, not encumbered by a convoluted design like the Insteon+ app is. Even with the json config and iTunes file transfer, its still easier to set up using my old hub than setting up a new HomeKit hub with an "official" app is. Watch views are a bonus, would love to have those in a glance (if that is even possible).

Very easy to use. Works great. One problem: if you purposely or accidentally hit two buttons at once...the app crashes. Tip until thats fixed: Dont purposely or accidentally hit two buttons at once.

This app could be useful for controlling my home automation software (assumin I can understand how to configure the JSON) but I can’t use it since it will not allow the use of either a self-signed certificate or digest authentication. Since I have to embed my username and password in the URL, I need to use https protocol to be somewhat secure. However, it gives an error about my self-signed certificate when I do this. The http protocol works, but I don’t think it passes my test for even minimal security. Hopefully the developer will include this support in a future version.

I play with arduinos a lot and used this app to control my arduino via the teleduino library and service over the Internet. This app kept me from having to make my own! Also modifying the guy is no a and easy
