The room selection screen of the WAGO EasyLife app

WAGO asked us to help build a mobile app for their smart home solutions. This is a big deal for my wife Orsi and me, as it’s our biggest joint project so far. Orsi was responsible for the frontend, and I handled the backend.

The app isn’t public yet, but they’ve already given an interview to the RTL Klub show Édes Otthon (Hungarian TV), which you can watch here: RTL MOST (in Hungarian).

And here’s the most exciting part for us, the app itself being presented:

Throughout the development we worked on making it easy to serve both Android and iOS phones. You can read more about this technology in my post about PWA apps.

Here’s a happy little video from the early stage of development, when we first managed to talk to the PLC:

And a few screenshots from the app:

This work was a great experience for us, and we also enjoyed working with the people at WAGO throughout the development of the app.

Orsi and I would love to take part in more projects like this, so if you have an app idea waiting to be built, get in touch and let’s figure out the best solution for you together!
