In this app & hub update we’ve created new help videos for all of the most frequently asked questions, and we’ve built these into the app doctor. When you’re in the app doctor you will see videos stepping you through the process, from helping you to add new devices to your Genius Hub to helping you remove a stubborn Genius Radiator Valve from a radiator.

As you know we listen keenly to the feedback we get on the Genius Hub forum (you can access the forum here with your HUB username and password)  and we also run analytics on the support requests that we get through the winter. This all goes to help improve the systems you already have installed into your homes, let properties, offices, schools, hotels to name just a few. 

You have to upgrade your HUB to benefit from these improvements.

We also have full support for some new devices too. The first is our new  Genius Motion Sensor  for more discrete occupancy detection in rooms where you don’t want to add a Genius Room Sensor, second is our new Genius Electric Relay which can be hidden behind a switch or spur to interrupt the electricity supply to something like a light or small heater. All are now fully compatible with the Genius Hub.

Don’t forget your Genius Hub works with Amazon Alexa now and you need the hub firmware 5.3.8 to be able to connect Alexa to your hub.

As always we’re not stopping there and for a full list of what we’re working on short and long term please see our R&D Roadmap and our change log.
