				 |  Android App 
			
			I keep seeing mention of "iphone and android" apps, but I've not been able to (ever) locate an actual android app.  I paid the $40 (or whatever it was) for the iphone app but now no longer have an iphone, and would really like a similar android app.  Am I missing it somewhere?

			Carl pointed you in the right direction. Thank you Carl!   For future reference, the Download page link is found under the main site's Support Menu of links. Once on the Download page you will need to select the Smartphone Tab. The android app is not as nice as the iPhone app. Have you tried using the HomeNet web UI on your smartphone? Regards, Tim

			Thank you for pointing that out... It turns out that we had to agree to a new iTunes Application Agreement. The status shows Pending, so I suspect the App should be available again within the next 24-48 hours. Tim

			So recently I bought an lg urbane android watch which I really like and there is a ton of information out there for incorporating it with home automation. I don't know if the android app is compatible or has any features that can be used with android wear but the voice recognition is amazing in this things and the microphone always with you is a great feature. I know that the voice is not processed at the watch itself but I think it will be great if HAL android app had this feature. Or how can someone use the IFTTT  app/ website which has  android wear feature and interface it with HAL or Tasker android app both 2 very powerful apps which HAL should look into them  Denis |

			We have submitted requests two different times to become a partner and create a channel for HAL with IFTTT.   I just sent a message to two of the founders today in hopes of getting some movement with IFTTT. Regards, Tim
