About this app

This app allows you to create a central and easy-to-use control system on your smartphone or tablet. The user-friendly interface gives you access to all the functions of the Niko Home Control installation, such as lighting, roll-down shutters and ventilation.

What do I need?

Your Niko Home Control installation needs to contain a wireless smart hub (552-00001) or connected controller (550-00003) and has to be connected to the internet. The installation needs to be running Niko Home Control II programming software 2.5.1 (or more recent). If your installation contains a controller (550-00001) or was programmed with an older version of the Niko Home Control programming software, please use the previous version of the Niko Home Control app.

Features:
• Control from everywhere in the world if the installation is registered on http://mynikohomecontrol.niko.eu.
• Add your favourite controls to your Favourites screen.
