• An always-on controller is required for some features such as Amazon Alexa Voice Control. For instance, a dedicated iPad or iPhone could be used that doubles as the remote for your Living Room. The always-on controller can also be the macOS or Apple TV edition of this app. Note that Roomie Voice Control and Siri control do not require an always-on device.

• Some very old devices may not be controlled directly via Wi-Fi and require an adapter for infrared control. See roomieremote.com/check-compatibility to determine whether any of your devices need an adapter.

更新履歴
• 9.2.1: Sunrise/Sunset automations now support Offset minutes. Hidden activities are listed in a dimmed font in the Activities editor. Numerous additional fixes.
• Custom Audio files may now be added. Broadcast Audio is a new command option to play a custom audio file on all active controllers. Setting up a doorbell using this command is one ideal use case. AIF, WAV, and MP3 are the supported audio file formats.
• Hide Status Bar switch added to Always-on Settings for a more refined appearance in a dedicated wallmount display.
• Show Room Time option now distinguishes between large and small screen sizes. For instance you can display Room Time on the wallmount iPad, but not on your iPhone for the same room.
• Show in Room setting now applies to all Activity Types to allow hiding an activity completely if for instance it is only used functionally or called from another activity.
• HTTP Local Control: Simpler Activity execution syntax option.
• HTTP Local Control: New command serves audio from Custom Media. Can be used with the new Sonos command .MEDIA SET to playback audio files on a Sonos Group.
• Roomie for Apple TV is significantly updated to serve as a Primary Controller for all platforms.

Highlights from the 9.0 release:
• Configuration storage and synchronization is now local to the Primary Controller rather than stored in the cloud. Since V5, we have used a couple of different cloud storage solutions, but their only real use case was for offsite control. As Roomie is always used within the home or by VPN to the home, moving to pure local storage with local synchronization works better, is more secure (eliminating the entire class of security issues associated with cloud storage), and is notably faster.
• Automatic Backups: Daily and monthly automated configuration backups may now be executed to your choice of location.
• Controller Permissions: Each Controller now has permissions for the Home, either Full Access or Read-Only.
• Multiroom Linked Activities: Using the same media player in multiple rooms is now recognized as a Linked Activity. Such Activities can be activated together with the new Link button. Opening the volume controller for such an Activity displays all related volumes along with global mute controls.
• Inline Action Panel Editing: Entering Layout mode for the current Action Panel allows inline customization of your remote in a simple user interface.
• Weather: Current, daily, or hourly weather is now displayed throughout the app including the Homebar, Dashboard, and optionally per-room.
• Sunset/Sunrise Automation: Execution based on solar-related time events is now available for Time-based Automations.
• Shortcuts/Siri: Everything related to these features has been re-implemented using the latest Apple API to support current and upcoming changes. Your old Shortcuts migrate automatically, but some degree of adaptation may be required. Please verify your Shortcuts and let us know if you had to adjust anything.
• Color Icons and Symbols: Thousands of additional symbols are available as well as support for multicolor symbols.
• Many other fixes and improvements throughout the app.
• Always ensure all versions of Roomie (and Now Showing if applicable) in your environment are at the same version across platforms.
• Minimum system requirements are now the Fall 2023 releases: iOS/iPadOS/tvOS 17, macOS 14.
