Alternatives to Vera mobile?

Other Devices & Integrations More Home Control

I have been using the Vera mobile app on my iphone to control my veraLite but it does not work with altsteon devices so I am looking for a different app to use. I love the looks of sq remote but is that compatible wit altsteon?

I also found a free app called veraMate but I can’t seem to log into my Vera with it. And I am wondering if that support a altsteon devices.

Another user suggested the apps that work with altsteon in another thread. HomeWave is that app for iPhone. Not sure if Automator.app does as well.

Yea I saw that too. It was in one of my other threads but i can’t seem to find that thread now.

I was wondering specifically about the two apps i mentioned. Sq remote and veraMate.

Anyone have any idea about those?

SqRemote somewhat works with Altsteon.
Lights (dimmers and relays) work.
Fans speeds (with FanLincs) do not, but the fan lights do.

I am not in a position to try IOLincs at the moment.

I’ve been using Vera Mobile with Altsteon for the past few days, and all my devices show up. Not sure if it is due to my being on Vera 3, versus Vera Lite.

Vera 3 and vera lite are the same hardware platform with a few minor differences. It does not make any difference.
