About ABB-free@home®
This Smart Home app makes it possible to configure and operate your free@home system. It transforms your house or your apartment into an intelligent companion. Whether blinds, lights, heating, air conditioning, door communication or light scenes. You can call up all functions individually - whether via switch, voice control or app from your smartphone and tablet. This allows you to conveniently operate your home from anywhere in the house or anywhere in the world. Most functions can be controlled through the Widget, not requiring to call up the free@home App. Local use and remote control via myABB Living Space is safe thanks to the best point-to-point encryption*, and so easy to establish! With your mobile devices you can now surf on the Internet and at the same time control your heating or the lights or simply check the status with the same device.
