We have just released a new official version of the app for the Apple platform. This will be mainly noticeable for those still using sitemaps on iOS and wanting to use openHAB via their Apple Watch:
Sitemap View — SwiftUI Rewrite
The sitemap experience has been rebuilt in SwiftUI, delivering a faster, more responsive interface that better follows modern iOS design conventions. The new implementation adds support for previously missing widget types such as Button Grid and Color Temperature controls, while refining existing widgets including sliders, setpoints, color pickers, selection lists, segmented controls, switches, rollershutters, and text inputs with better state handling, improved hit targets, and more accurate value display.
watchOS — Expanded Widget Support
The Apple Watch app adds support for more sitemap widgets, including color picker, image, frame, text, and selection rows. Inline buttons with single-action and press-and-release mappings can now appear directly in list rows. Label and value colors configured in openHAB are now respected more consistently, icon rendering is more reliable, setpoint controls better track in-progress adjustments, and the app recovers more cleanly when resumed from the App Switcher.
Reliability & Polish
- Sitemap pages refresh automatically when the app returns to the foreground
- Chart widgets render more stably without flickering on scroll
- Slider and setpoint values follow openHAB unit patterns more consistently
- Siri intents now include complete localization string coverage
