nwchicago Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Hi, I'm relatively new to ISY and miss my iPhone client when I am remote. I subscribe to the UD Portal Service to enable Alexa access already. Can anyone recommend which mobile client to get? I have isy994i zw. Use Alexa for voice. Have mostly insteon install with some zwave. And I have the UD portal subscription. Which is the right tool to get? Mobilink seems popular - but even then there are multiple versions. Thanks!

andyf0 Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 You can try MobiLinc Lite for free to see if you like it. It has a # devices limitation. If you like it then you can upgrade it to the full version. Warning, if you are running the 5.X Alpha software on your ISY, some things won't work correctly. Quote
kgividen Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 Mobilinc is the best. It's just pricey. If you don't mind the price get it. I wrote xcontrol which isn't perfect but what I use everyday. I like the quickness of it and it's less expensive. There are a couple others but I haven't used them for a long time. Quote
giesen Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 eKeypad is quite nice too, especially if you have other devices (Elk, IP Cams, etc). Worth checking out Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk Quote
nwchicago Posted February 23, 2017 Author Posted February 23, 2017 Any comparison between eKeypad and mobilink. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I'm really confused by the different versions of mobilink. How do I know what is right? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote

stusviews Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 MobiLinc, MobiLinc, MobiLinc. Need I say more? Quote
ScottAvery Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 if you do go with MobiLinc, don't get the Orchestrated version unless you REALLY want resource management, because it is just wasted screen space if you don't need it. Quote
nwchicago Posted March 9, 2017 Author Posted March 9, 2017 Thanks! I have bought mobilink. I am already using the UD portal service. It seems like many of the more interesting mobilink capabilities like geofencing and remote access do not work over the UD portal which is frustrating. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
nwchicago Posted March 9, 2017 Author Posted March 9, 2017 Is there a way to have a custom list of devices or scenes to rapidly assess status? I do like how it supports lock and sensor status. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Remote access works fine against the ISY Portal. For geofencing, look to the (free) Locative app. Currently, you can report location events via an IFTTT URL on the portal, but soon there will be full multi device, multi location functionality...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yes, add them to your dashboard. Can include scenes devices and/or programs. You can then have the app automatically open to the dashboard, or a different screen if you want. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited March 10, 2017 by TrojanHorse Quote
