Home App | For Philips Hue, Arduino & more

A little smart home app for Philips Hue, Arduino and other devices
New in version 1.10.0
This version includes a new editor for Hue scenes and supports tinted app icons on the new Android version. There are also some new shortcuts (widgets) for devices and Hue controls that help you find what you are looking for faster. Furthermore, there is now a new device info page for Shelly Gen 2 devices, and an issue with Shelly Gen 1 devices has been fixed thanks to @Gared.
HomeApp is a small and easy to use smart home app with a simple framework. The goal of this application is to make remote execution of predefined features as easy and user-friendly as possible to help you get started with smart home technology.

Supported devices
- Philips Hue Bridge
- Shelly Gen 1 devices
- Shelly Gen 2 devices
- Devices using ESP Easy
- Devices using Tasmota
- Devices using the Node-RED dashboard
- Devices using the SimpleHome API
- Devices with a web interface

Features
- Control your Philips Hue lights
- Live preview of the current light color
- Create, rename and delete scenes
- Add devices to your home screen
- Add devices with a web interface (e.g. Router)

How it works
Communication between the devices uses HTTP requests and JSON strings. After the commanding device has send a HTTP request to the smart home device, the smart home device sends back a JSON string containing the information the app needs.
This app is especially useful if you are using microcontrollers or other small devices such as the Raspberry Pi for smart home automation.
