About this app

An app for controlling the lighthouses for your Valve Index.

Use this app to control the power state of your lighthouses in case the Valve Index doesn't do it.

There is now also beta support for the Vive Base stations.

Ratings and reviews

This handy little app is packed with features. It identifies your lighthouses which is great if you have more than the standard 2, and let's you place them into standby mode in times when they don't go there automatically, or when your power flickers. Standby is key since it extends the life of your base stations by shutting down both the motors and lasers. Working flawlessly with my four v2.

Program worked fine up until the update. Won't find my base stations anymore. Followed the troubleshooting steps, even restarted my phone, and still didn't fix. I have no idea why it has done this, but I have to resort to unplugging and plugging in my Base Station in order to turn it on/off. I am using a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

This was working fine until the update. After the update, it wouldn't turn on the lighthouses, so I reinstalled the app. Now I only get a grey screen when I start it up. Edit: even with the patch, still does not work. Grey screen persists even after uninstalling the app. I even went so far as to delete the app folder from my Android. I don't know if there is some unremoved file that persists after being uninstalled that prevents a new download from working, or if it just no longer works for S9.

What’s new
