Roomote
The Smart Room Remote for iPad
Innovative
Smart home
The Roomate project involved designing an intuitive and visually appealing smart home control app.
Roomote was designed to simplify smart home management by providing an intuitive and visually appealing control hub for iPad users. The goal was to streamline the complexity of managing multiple smart devices—lighting, temperature, entertainment, and more—into a single, cohesive experience. The challenge lay in balancing robust functionality with a user-friendly interface that catered to varying levels of tech-savviness.
The app’s design prioritised clarity, contextual awareness, and personalisation. Key features included a dashboard view for real-time room snapshots, drag-and-drop widgets for customising controls, and a Scene Builder for activating multiple settings with a single tap. Roomote also integrated voice control through Siri and offered instant feedback for seamless interaction. The dark-mode aesthetic, custom icons, and modular layouts further enhanced usability and visual appeal.
The result was a highly successful product launch, with users praising the app’s intuitive interface and customisation options. Roomote achieved a 35% increase in engagement compared to legacy solutions, an 18% reduction in setup time, and a 4.8-star rating on the App Store. Moving forward, plans include integrating AI-powered scene suggestions and expanding device compatibility to ensure Roomote remains a leader in smart home technology.
