Hubitat Announces Availability of Mobile App for Its Home Automation System

Hubitat’s Elevation mobile app is available for Android and iOS users, giving customers availability of remote access, presence detection and push notifications for their home automation systems from smartphones and tablets, said the company Thursday. The mobile app offers geofencing -- only transmitting that a geofence boundary has been crossed -- ensuring that GPS data “stays on the device, is never transmitted or stored and users’ location privacy is protected," it said.
