About this app

With IKEA Home smart app and DIRIGERA hub, it's easy to create smarter everyday moments with lighting, speakers, blinds and air quality products.

Picture yourself waking up as your smart lights gently rise. Your favourite songs play on the speakers and you still haven't gotten out of bed. How lovely, right? Smart products like lighting, speakers, blinds and air purifiers can make a lovely addition to your everyday life. When you improve the IQ of your home, life itself runs a bit smoother.

The magic happens when you combine two or more smart products from IKEA, tell them what to do in the app and save it as a 'Scene'.

A great scene is one you will use often. Think about waking up and going to bed, cooking and eating, date night and family time, or leaving and coming home. All everyday moments when we can support you with the best lighting, sound that suits your mood, and cleaner air.

When it comes to control, we think of everyone, from young to old and even visitors. So while the app gives you total control to customise your smart home, our range of remotes make it easy for everyone to live with and use a smart home.

In control
• You can control products individually or in groups. You can turn whole rooms on and off or the whole home, all at once.
• Dim and change light colours, adjust blinds, speaker volume, and much more.
• Set the scenes you need and trigger them with schedules, a shortcut button or use the app.

Easy to use
• The home screen gives a fast overview of your whole home. Quickly control products, access rooms, or start/stop scenes. This is also where you add new products, rooms, and scenes.

Organised and personal
• Organising your smart products in rooms gives fast access to the products you want to control.
• Personalise the app with your choice of icons, names and colours for rooms and products
• Create personal scenes, for example your own combination of cosy lighting and your favourite music.

Integrations
• Connect to Amazon Alexa or Google Home to use a voice assistant.

Ratings and reviews

The app can't start any scenes and hasn't been able to in quite some time. I activate the scenes by clicking on their respective icon and after about a minute it turns itself back to inactive. Very jarring to get 100% brightness in the kitchen at night. And seeing how I've had this problem for quite some time, we haven't bought any more of the smart lights/controlls/etc

Very rudimentary functions. Can't even do smooth transitions between light settings. From something that's been in the market for 6 years I was expecting that they would at least be where Hue was when it was released 10 years ago. I bought 1500kr worth of equipment that is basically useless because they haven't bothered making decent software.

Works much better than the previous app! Finding and connecting items actually works - first time!! A couple of things however that could o with attention. Really missing a dark mode theme for the app, when is this being introduced? Also, let's take my kitchen as an example (same applies for any room), I only want to turn on certain lights but to do so takes a few to many clicks and the buttons are a bit small. From a UI perspective I find my self cling around a bit.

What's new

We've been squashing bugs, fixing translations and refining code here at IKEA Home smart HQ to keep things running smoothly.
