The free Homematic IP App<\/strong><\/a> receives with version 3.6.13<\/strong> A new update brings numerous practical improvements for even more convenient smart home control. The focus is on continuous improvement, designed to simplify daily use and make the user interface clearer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Improved clarity thanks to individual icons for switching actuators<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the most noticeable changes concerns the symbolic identification of switching actuators<\/strong>.
Users can now select their own icons \u2013 for example, a lamp for light switches, a socket for devices, or a neutral symbol for general functions. This allows smart home devices to be identified at a glance, significantly improving clarity and usability. This feature is particularly helpful in larger installations, allowing for faster device identification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Homematic<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In practice, the function has the following effect:<\/strong> When switching the Homematic IP switching\/measuring cable in the room terrace<\/em> When switched on, the selected symbol is displayed. Since a string of lights is connected in this example, the lightbulb is a very suitable symbol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Filter function for additional services such as Amazon Alexa<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Even the Integration of external additional services<\/strong> has been optimized. With the new Filter function<\/strong> Users can specifically determine which devices or groups can be controlled via voice assistants such as Amazon Alexa<\/strong> to be controlled. Instead of automatically linking all networked devices, individual components can now be selectively included or excluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This leads to more Control, data protection and precision<\/strong> \u2013 for example, if only certain lamps or sockets are to be operated via voice command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The function can be found in the main menu under More -> Voice control and additional services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Advanced automation options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Homematic IP app, from version 3.6.13 onwards, also brings enhanced features. Automation options<\/strong>. Inputs and buttons of Switching, dimming and roller shutter actuators<\/strong> They can now be directly integrated into automations. This creates new possibilities for individual scenarios \u2013 such as switching on multiple lights simultaneously or triggering specific actions at the touch of a button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

In addition, the app now also supports defined lightening and darkening positions<\/strong> at Shading groups<\/strong>. This function enables even more precise control of blinds or roller shutters \u2013 for greater comfort and energy efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Improved control via wearables<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Even for users who Homematic IP App on Smartwatches<\/strong> Users will find a handy update: Favorites can now be sorted manually. This allows you to customize quick access to frequently used devices and scenes \u2013 ideal for on the go or for quick operation without a smartphone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have already shown you how to use the Homematic IP app on the smartwatch in a previous post. Article<\/a> presented and also a Test report<\/a> published.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Gradual rollout and availability<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As usual, the Rollout of version 3.6.13<\/strong> The update will be rolled out gradually. Within a few days, it will be available to all users of the Homematic IP app. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udca1 Tip:<\/strong> A manual update can be performed via the respective app store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With update 3.6.13, Homematic IP<\/strong> Its continuous product development continues and it specifically improves the Ease of use<\/strong>, Individualization<\/strong> and Automation possibilities<\/strong> in the smart home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
