Description
NEW USERS SHOULD NOT INSTALL THIS APP. INSTALL THE NEW INSTEON DIRECTOR APP INSTEAD.
THIS APP (INSTEON FOR HUB) IS FOR LEGACY HUBS AND IS NO LONGER BEING UPDATED.
The new Insteon Hub connects you to your home from any smartphone or tablet. Control Insteon light bulbs, wall switches, outlets and thermostats. Receive instant email or push notification alerts from motion and water leak sensors while you're away.
Download the Insteon for Hub app, connect your Insteon Hub, select your favorite Insteon devices for your home and enjoy!
The Insteon Hub works in combination with your router and smartphone or tablet to control Insteon devices in your home while you're there, when you're at work, or out of town.
Easy Device Scheduling
Want to turn on your bedside lamp automatically to help wake you up in the morning? How about program the porch light to turn on and off automatically with the rise and fall of the sun? No problem.
Get Alerts on Your Mobile Phone or Computer
Create alerts by adding water leak sensors, motion sensors, door/window sensors and more. The Insteon Hub will send push notifications and email alerts to your mobile device. The Hub also stores the status of these sensors, so you can easily check on your sensors from within the app at any time.
Stay Connected to What Matters Most
Wonder what triggered the motion sensor or just want to check in on the kids or your pets? Add a wireless camera and you'll see it all from your smartphone. The Insteon cameras feature pan/tilt control and night vision. Setting up this camera within the Insteon for Hub app is the easiest setup that you have ever seen!
Cloud-based Service
The Insteon Hub stores your homes configuration in the cloud which allows access from any number of smartphones and tablets you may own. Add another smartphone by simply downloading the app, sign in and enjoy.
NO MONTHLY FEES
That's right. No monthly fees to view, control and monitor your home. Other systems on the market charge hundreds of dollars a year for services that you can enjoy for free with the Insteon Hub.

Ratings and Reviews
Getting better
It's still slow responding to actions (I'm in the uk) so you go to dim and there is a noticeable lag after key press but it's better than it was before latest update. Schedules don't always work and you can't assign an x10 address to insteon devices. Schedule times can't be shared outside scenes. Startup dim levels are ignored. Oh and lights sometimes flicker.
So it's ok, would I buy another insteon device. Nope not yet but it's getting closer.
Good kit but needs more to use its full potential
The insteon app and products are a great way to automate a home but the app needs more advances. The products are overpriced in the UK at present and they need to expand the range available. More time needs to be put into IOS updates and less into pushing windows versions. Home kit is coming and insteon have a chance to shine if they put the effort in. Overall I'd recommend this app and the insteon products.
Great start - missing major feature
Installation, connecting up devices, port forwarding all a breeze. One major problem is the lack of multiple timers per device, so you can't have lights coming on in the morning and evening (unless you leave them on all night!) I'm sure this will get fixed in the next release.
