14 Interesting home control applications for iPhone
iPhone becomes more and more popular in the home control industry. Here is a list of the most popular or fresh applications for Apple’s gadget which can help consumers to manage their houses more efficient:
- AirRemote – turns iPhone into smart remote control. It uses WiFi to send commands and needs GC100 to transmit them to IR.
- ILoveControl is another universal remote control implementation for iPhone. But it allows to control not A/V equipment but all devices added in the Crestron, AMX, Control4, Lifeware, Lutron or NetStreams.
- iPhone interface to control Lagotek smarthome systems
- iPhone interface for SpeakerCraft music systems is web-based but extremely expensive – $1000 for pre-configured device and ERS 1.0 Ethernet-to-serial adapter run web server!
- Savant Systems iPhone Interface provides a full control for its systems.
- NetLinc Insteon Central Controller includes an iPhone interface to control INSTEON devices connected to that controller.
- HAI WL3 is an iPhone optimized web interface to control HAI smarthome systems.
- TiVoRemote turns iPhone into remote control for TiVo boxes. It sends commands via TCP/IP.
- MyMote allows to control your MythTV box from iPhone.
- iPhone interface for home automation system mControl.
- MythTV for iPhone is a MythTV front-end for iPhone. You can watch LiveTV or recorded shows.
- Asterisk Voicemail for iPhone offers a simple way to listen and manage you Asterisk voice mail from any place where you can find WiFi connection.
- Promix’s iPhone UI to control its smarthome system Girder.
- Technology BD Touch allows to user iPhone as a remote control for Blu-ray players. I’m not sure that it’ll be so interesting as AirRemote or ILoveControl.

Cool. It’d might be used in LinuxMCE because it’s TCP/IP based system. Will see that project.
CommandFusion iViewer is out in the AppStore now, free download.
Just program it into your home automation system, design a sweet GUI using the guiDesigner software, and your set!
IPhone applications is that it is not a limit to the number of applications that can / will be created. If you can imagine, you can do. And with technology constantly changing, there will always be a need for new, better iPhone applications. So develop your own iPhone applications, whether for pleasure or profit could certainly be an idea or a long-term hobby.
CommandFusion iViewer is another iPhone app for home automation control that will be available soon. It also can control any software or hardware capable of TCP Socket communications, with a little programming of course – thanks to the simple protocol iViewer uses.
It also allows for a fully custom UI using the CommandFusion guiDesigner software.
