Your HomeKit and Matter devices can do more than on and off: Controller for HomeKit gives you dashboards you build yourself, workflows that run over several steps, months of history, and a floor plan you control directly.\n\nYOUR OWN DASHBOARD\nYour devices sit where you need them, instead of in a list.\n- Views you compose yourself from tiles: per home, per person, and if you want, per device. One for the iPad on the wall, one for the iPhone in your pocket.\n- More than 25 tile variants: devices, scenes, workflows, time, weather, calendar, charts, battery warnings.\n- Five standard sizes, or drag your own size on the grid.\n- Visibility conditions: a tile or a whole section appears only when you need it.\n- Plus widgets for your Home Screen and a view of your own on Apple Watch.\n\nCONTROLLER AI\nDescribe what you need in plain language: a dashboard, a scene, an automation or a workflow. Controller builds it, and you adjust it however you like afterwards.\n\nMORE THAN A SCHEDULE\nTwo devices become a sequence that thinks along.\n- Workflows: multiple steps, conditions and branches for sequences a single automation cannot express.\n- Automations with advanced triggers and conditions.\n- States: virtual switches that capture how your home currently stands and drive your workflows accordingly.\n- Custom notifications for anything you want to know about.\n- NFC tags: one tap and the workflow runs.\n\nYOUR SENSORS ARE ALREADY MEASURING\nController remembers the values and makes them readable.\n- Charts: see how temperature, humidity or battery level develop over weeks and months, across every device and brand.\n- Maintenance: which battery is empty, which device is unreachable, which automation is broken.\n- Logs: every activity and every change, traceable.\n- Smart folders: devices and automations grouped by filters you define.\n- Floor Plan: scan your home with the LiDAR sensor of your iPhone or iPad and control your devices right on the plan.\n- Controller Hub: a dedicated iPhone, iPad, Apple TV or Mac runs your workflows automatically. Charts and States require Controller Hub.\n\nSHARE THE WORK, NOT JUST THE SWITCHES\n- Home Sharing: pass your entire setup to the people you live with. For each person you choose between the whole app or only the dashboards you share with them.\n- Setup codes: your HomeKit and Matter codes stay safe in the app and never get lost.\n- Backups: save your setup and restore it whenever you need to.\n\nController for HomeKit runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Apple TV.\n\nYou already own the devices. Controller for HomeKit brings out what is in them.\n\nMore on our website: https://www.controllerforhomekit.com\n\nPrivacy Policy:\nhttps://controllerforhomekit.com/privacy/\n\nTerms of Use:\nhttps://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/","facts":{"developer_id":974663980,"developer_url":"https://www.controller-for-homekit.com","first_released":"2017-02-16T17:15:03Z","support_url":null,"privacy_url":null,"website_url":null,"app_version":"10.0.2","release_notes":"Controller 10 brings dashboards: views you build yourself, and Home Sharing, which passes your whole setup to the people you live with.\n\n- Dashboards: Build your own view from tiles, one per home, per person, and even per device.\n- More than 25 tile variants: Devices, scenes, workflows, time, weather, calendar, charts, battery warnings.

For each person you choose between the whole app or only the dashboards you share with them.\n- New search: Find devices, rooms, scenes, workflows, floor plans and settings, not only by name but also by the devices and actions they contain.\n- Floor plans from a picture: Use your own image as a floor plan and place your devices on it, no LiDAR sensor needed.\n- 3D floor plan: Now in Dark Mode too, with new gestures for rotating, zooming and tilting.\n- \"Open Dashboard\" widget: Open any dashboard straight from your Home Screen.\n- States, Zones and Service Groups: Sort your states, the rooms in a zone and the devices in a service group the way you need.\n- Faster loading: Large homes with a Controller Hub in particular load faster.\n- Plus man","rating_current_version":4.07843,"rating_count_current_version":2754,"star_counts":null,"genres":["Lifestyle","Utilities"],"languages":["EN","FR","DE","PL","ES"],"content_advisories":null,"device_families":null,"chart":null},"freshness":{"apple_read_at":"2026-10-19T02:17:11.554Z","catalog_read_at":null,"reviews_checked_at":null,"summary_written_at":null,"placed_at":"2026-10-19T06:00:15.610Z","scored_at":"2026-10-21T03:33:12.684Z"},"editorial":null,"memberships":[{"list":"smart-home-control","list_name":"smart home control","list_status":"active","list_url":"https://apptierlist.com/best/smart-home-control/","position":51,"tier":null,"score":76.2,"components":{"rating":74.5,"votes":77,"rank":53.4,"recency":100},"status":"active","review_status":"checked","list_ranking_status":"ranked","confidence":"normal","judged_at":"2026-10-19T06:00:15.610Z"}],"main_list":"smart-home-control","claim":{"status":"none","verified":false,"site_url":null,"verified_via":null,"verified_domain":null},"history":[{"id":170729,"at":"2026-10-19T06:00:15.610Z","kind":"membership_added","list":"smart-home-control","app_store_id":1198176727,"app":"controller-for-homekit-1198176727","from":null,"to":"active","reason":"Core purpose: controls HomeKit and Matter devices with custom dashboards, scenes, workflows, automations and NFC triggers.","job":"shadow"},{"id":166102,"at":"2026-10-19T02:17:11.554Z","kind":"app_added","list":null,"app_store_id":1198176727,"app":"controller-for-homekit-1198176727","from":null,"to":null,"reason":"discovered","job":"import"}],"explain":{"method":"Membership is decided by a model judging the App Store listing against the list's definition (and its excludes, for memberships placed or rechecked since they were added to the prompt); every verdict is listed with its date; the score is a plain average of the public components an app has (four, plus Apple's Editors' Choice badge as 100 where shown); nothing is purchasable.","lists":[{"list":"smart-home-control","list_name":"smart home control","status":"active","review_status":"checked","position":51,"tier":null,"score":76.2,"components":{"rating":74.5,"votes":77,"rank":53.4,"recency":100},"ranks":[{"country":"us","rank":20},{"country":"de","rank":35}],"verdicts":[{"verdict":"keep","reason":"Core purpose: controls HomeKit and Matter devices with custom dashboards, scenes, workflows, automations and NFC triggers.","verifier":"claude-sonnet-5-5","decided_at":"2026-10-19T06:00:15.610Z","attempts":1,"current":true},{"verdict":"keep","reason":"Its main purpose is controlling HomeKit and Matter devices from your own dashboards, automations and workflows.
