Ratings and reviews

The app is great when it is operational. My experience so far is that the app and the hardware are functional 2 months over a year. I have the Tahoma hardware, the Philips hub and a smart home controller; this app provides only 17% uptime compared to ~99% with the other manufacturers. Mandatory updates when connecting to this app have a good chance to ruin your safety system, so you can't use it while you are away from home. The support system is a 1990's style forum.

I am happy that my app updated with this latest release (June 4) because for the last few months my events were firing differently from the configured times, and since yesterday everything is working correctly. I previously saw that in the History of Actions, each action was showing twice. This has been fixed. I now see a number of additional configuration options. My biggest wish is to have the offse before/after sunrise/sunset be configurable +- 8 hours, now the offset is only 45 minutes.

UX/UI is incredibly terrible. Imagine just basic task: you want to be woken up by sunlight = open your exterior sunscreen at certain time (instead of alarm). Good goal to try if you want to explore settings. Just impossible. Thermostat (1870508 type) was a nightmare story, resulted in claim of warranty because it didn't connect with the Tahoma main unit. Didn't get all money back. I truly regret decision to deal with TaHoma in general. App itself has quarter of Gigabyte. Fancy pictures, etc.

What's new

We're thrilled to announce our latest update, which introduces indoor temperature sensor integration to our thermal comfort pre-set scene. Now, as indoor temperatures climb during the summer heat, your sun protection will automatically close, ensuring your home stays comfortably cool.

But that's not all! This update also brings compatibility with Amy io wall switches, a complete range of control points with an integrated temperature sensor that can be paired to TaHoma!
