Description
Smart Home Control Panel
Wallflower turns an iPad or iPhone into an interactive control panel on the wall, for everyone to use.

* Wallflower is optimized for running 24/7 on your wall.

* Based on HomeKit: It supports lights, thermostats and ACs, switches, outlets, contact sensors (doors, windows), and sensors for temperature, humidity, air quality, particulate matter, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon dioxide, light intensity, air pressure and noise. And much more!

* The interface is optimized to be looked at from far away. When it is not in use for a while, some elements are hidden and the interface is simplified. Those elements show up again, when you approach the device. When it's dark in the room, Wallflower can turn the display way down.

* All sensor data is drawn into the same graph: Values from multiple sensors are merged intelligently.

* If you want to provide your guest with Home Wifi, provide a convenient button where they can join via QR code.

* Weather is displayed in a compact text form, including weather alerts if there are any. Detailed weather information, including charts, are just a tap away.

* Along with it, you can select calendars to display, so for example your family calendar is always in view for everyone, in the place where everyone looks. This way there is a quick glanceable way to see what's up, even while walking by.

* All issues for your smart home (like empty batteries, network problems, …) are conveniently displayed on the top.

* There is no tracking in the app. And no extra analytics beyond the anonymized basics that the AppStore provides for the users that opted in. There's no invasive 3rd party frameworks either. We don’t want your data, your home is yours, and yours alone.

* Settings are protected against unauthorized tinkering via a passcode or - if your device supports it - with your face or fingerprint. And after a while of not using it, it turns back to the main screen.

* Last, but not least: Wallflower makes a great and very accurate wall clock.

Wallflower requires a subscription to display weather, calendar or run with complex setups. However, you can try the home features without a subscription for one device of each kind (and 2 lights) at the same time. So you can try everything out as long as you want, and if you have a simple setup that might even be all you need!

And if you're not a fan of subscriptions, there is a one-time option to pay for the home features.

Homekit accessory cannot be reached

Says Homekit accessory cannot be reached on my iPad mini iOS 9, but it does list all my devices. Please help! Update: Developer response was helpful. Thank you!

Slow, clumsy, over-priced

Yes, my old iPad is slow, but there is no reason an app like this should stop drawing the clock and become totally unresponsive for minutes at a time. It crashes frequently. At free it is worth uninstalling. I feel sorry for anyone who paid for it.

Updates?

It’s been well over a year since you updated. Your monthly subscription and or 65 dollar purchase does not hold value. At best it’s a $10 one time payment app. Please either update or change your price structure.

Good concept, needs regular updates and a tweak

I searched for just such an app which I would gladly pay $10, a subscription not so much. A clock yep for a nightstand and preferably a clock that gives way when touched to larger buttons to control scenes or other HomeKit features instead of tiny icons or letters that are a bit hard to locate half asleep or at an angle. Good concept, maybe somebody will complete it.

Needs an update - where is 2.0?

This app is very minimal and sleek and offers a simple way to control a single room. I purchased with the hope that 2.0 would be released with features to control a whole home (or at least multiple rooms) and it is nowhere to be found. Last update was over a year ago. Their website points to a Medium article from 2019. I think this app may be dead in the development cycle. For what it currently is - a large clock with toggles for the HomeKit devices placed in the room you designate - it works. For a wall mounted solution - it’s so so.

Great concept but execution isn’t quite right

I love the concept for this app, but theres a few issues I have. 1) the visual design isn’t very “apple” and doesn’t gel with my mostly modern house aesthetic 2) the clock takes up so much space 3) dev could draw some inspiration from other apps like Fuse and Homedash here

 A way to have the display completely off at night and turn on on demand.
For this Wallflower has a new setting that it does no longer prevent the display from locking, either always, between certain times, or when Guided Access mode is on.

But how does it unlock then? Glad you asked
