    operating insteon 2245-222 hub with more than one mobile device

    Is it possible to control an insteon network with more than one mobile device? If so, if a device is named and assigned scheduled tasks, would both mobile devices see the same device with the same name and tasks? If so, I assume that one device could overwrite a schedule or on/off command executed by the other device but both devices would still see the indicator light change.

    For example, I was hoping to be able to use both an iPhone and an android tablet. I assume this will work or else what would happen if your phone broke and you needed to introduce the hub to your new phone.

    I could just try it and see, but then Murphy's law dictates that there would be some dire consequence that I would not be able to undo.

    There's no difficulty using more than one smartphone to control the 2245 Hub, even using different apps. However, if one smartphone makes changes or adds or deletes devices, than any other smartphone needs to log out and in again to see those changes.
    Message from Forum Admin: stusviews passed away in April 2018. Stu was a huge fan of Insteon and a huge presence on both the Smarthome and Insteon forums, helping thousands of us along the way (he had nearly 20,000 posts to his name). We thank him for his contributions, dedication, and passion for making the Smart Home a reality. He will truly be missed.
