eKeypad Pro or Mobilinc HD?

 

If you are using the same Apple ID, you can check the App Store on your device and navigate to Updates > Purchased > Not on this device. Then scroll thru the apps and download again.

I agree with the eKeypad Pro app. It's abit expensive ($99), but well worth it, in my opinion. It has many features and supports multiple devices over and above just the ISY. Also, the support from Jayson is top-notch -- he always responds to emails and his team works hard to keep the app updated with new features and fixes.

 

I will add that I recommend you not be tempted to save money and by the ISY version. Go ahead and get the Pro version even if you don't immediately need any of the additional modules. I made that mistake when I first got my ISY-99 (back in 2009); two years later, I bought an ELK M1 and wished I was able to integrate it too. At the time, there was free version of eKaypad that that did basic M1 tasks, but I would have to swap between apps to use each. It was fine for a little while, but I finally wanted more features with the Elk and also wanted it in one app so I broke down and bought the Pro version.

 

I now, not only have my ISY and Elk in one app, I also have my IP cameras set-up too and hoping to have a Russound system integrated also.

 

Probably my only complaint about eKeypad is that there is no way to upgrade to the Pro version at a discount if you had already bought a less expensive version. (Hence, my recommendation above to go ahead and buy Pro from the beginning.)
