Description
Enables direct control over the basic functions of the MAX! System from eQ-3, ELV and Debitel SmartHome. An account in the MAX! Portal is not necessary. The application requires a network connection to the MAX! Cube and is therefore primarily meant for usage at home. To be able to also control your heating while you are away you need to configure a VPN connection on your router.
NOTE: This app is not affected by the planned server shutdown of eq3/ELV, the app will still work the same as before.
Features: * 1-click change between Auto, Comfort, Eco and Off mode for all rooms * Shows actual and target temperature (even without wall mounted thermostat) * Management of week programs * Saves and restores heating profiles * Support for Tasker/Locale/Llama * Google Drive integration * Shows local weather information * Shows the current engagement of the heating valves * Temperature slider for adjusting the room temperature * Switch between auto, manual and boost mode for individual rooms * Shows indications for low battery, open window and radio connectivity problems
This application is unofficial and not connected to the manufacturer of the MAX! system in any way. To be able to use this application you need a MAX! Cube that is reachable by network.
Attention: While the MAX! configuration software is running the Cube accepts no additional network connections. Please close other MAX! application before using this software.

Great app, well-thought-out and everything works. Just one suggestion, why it's not possible to log in to Max portal also for remote control, at least as an option? I have cheap router, and it's impossible to set up VPN connection, so I'm forced to use this app, but also other one for control when I'm outside. Edit: Thanks for quick reply. I understand, it's no big deal, but it would be handy, maybe just some basic functionality, like in official app or even less, so that everything is covered in one app... For instance, when you can't connect because you are not on home Wi-Fi, app could offer option "connect through portal?" and just some very basic menu. But I'm very happy with app as it is! :)

Amazing Excellent app does most things the official pc software. Sometimes it doesn't collect the thermostat temp, but I think this is the polling of the Cube. Highly recommended. Many thanks

Works very well. I am grateful that this app exists because the one from the hardware supplier is not available any longer. Only drawback: for connecting a new device I still need desktop Windows software.

Cube detection: wrong IP. Providing IP manually app is able to display my
system. But: Vacation mode not yet supported. This makes the app useless
for me.

Never works now Always crashes now, has gone from great to unusable. Opens OK, as soon as you try to scroll down to other valves it bombs out.
