Make sure you physically enter “http://“ before your server ip address. Modern browsers have made us lazy. I didn’t do this and struggled figuring out why it wouldn’t connect. Emailed support and heard back a few days later with that suggestion and wouldn’t ya know it works great now. Since I haven’t used it long I can’t possibly rate it 5 stars yet - but so far it’s fast very clean UI and I’m diggin it.

So, this app Is still a little rough around the edges. I haven’t used it extensively (there isn’t that much to it) but adding my Homebrisge took more effort than expected. For example. It asks for the IP address. I typed in a host name but it didn’t want to take it. Then I typed the IP address (as it asked for) and it didn’t take that either. To get it to recognize, you have to prepend http://<ip-address> so it is a weird mix between URL and IP. Then, adding my user and password weren’t taking and I eventually figured out that it doesn’t support logging in with two-factor authentication. I added a special account without 2FA just for it, and it worked. Beyond that, it looks good. I look forward to improving my review as it matures.

Lovely app that does exactly what i need. My one complain is that the accessories tab takes an eternity to load, and blocks touch input while it loads. I can understand it being slow, I have many devices added to homebridge, but it blocking me from navigating to a different menu is unfortunate.
