Won’t Control Apple TV I bought this as an alternative to Apple Home only to discover that is can’t control Apple TV due to Apple restrictions. That basically makes it a useless app if you own an Apple TV.

Works Great This app has been working great for a long time. Very happy I bought this app.
Filters and search! How about that? This app destroys the built in Home app in the simplest of ways. Say i want to search for an accessory by name. I can do that! Maybe I want a quick filter of all temperature sensors, it has that! It can also do lots of other advanced automations etc, but the simple stuff is done well and the app always works as expected. Thank you!
Great App This is a cleaner interface than the Apple app. I use this exclusively.
Nice app but workarounds abound This app is great for setting up more complex automations, but it creates lots of new “scenes” with random names. This clearly is some sort of workaround, but other 3rd party apps don't seem to need to do this. I've taken to setting up automations in the Apple Home app, and then using Home+ to tweak them- this avoids the issue but is still inconvenient. Again, nice app, but it’ll leave your Home setup junked with lots of random scenes unless you do extra steps.
Annoying Apple Settings Update Vanquished! Get rid of the Home app entirely! Replace it with this app, and you will no longer be annoyed by Apple telling you to update. This is, of course, in addition to all the other neat things this app does. WOOHOO!
I wish I had found this sooner Absolutely amazing app. Being able to turn dials that are hidden in the Home app via Scenes alone makes this app worth the price
Crashes on restore Repeatedly crashing when restoring a backup
Well organized, my go-to for Homekit I use this for nearly everything on Homekit. From my phone to the iPad to my watch it covers everything I need day to day.
Doesn’t see HomePod as an accessory HomePod isn’t available to use in the app.

“Here are my thoughts: Pros: • Clean and simple UI with an appealing design.”

“The free Eve app from Elgato allows this so I am at a loss why this app does not!”
A drop after an update usually means the update broke something.
