<p>The Home Assistant for iOS app offers a companion app for iOS which is deeply integrated into both Home Assistant and iOS. Its basic features include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Advanced push notifications</li>
<li>Location tracking</li>
<li>Basic control of all Home Assistant entities</li>
<li>Integration with third party apps</li>
</ul>
<p class="note warning">
Currently, the app is only available via a closed beta. It will be on the App Store within the next few weeks.
</p>

An example of a Home Assistant group as seen in the iOS app.
</p>
<h2>Basic requirements</h2>
<ul>
<li>iOS device running at least iOS 9, but iOS 10 is greatly preferred.</li>
<li>Home Assistant 0.31.1 or higher for push notification support.</li>
<li>SSL is strongly recommended. Self-signed SSL certificates will not work due to Apples limitations.</li>
</ul>
<p>The <code class="highlighter-rouge">ios</code> component is the companion component for the Home Assistant iOS app. While not required, adding the <code class="highlighter-rouge">ios</code> component to your setup will greatly enhance the iOS app with new notification, location and sensor functions not possible with a standalone app.</p>
<p>Loading the <code class="highlighter-rouge">ios</code> component will also load the <a href="/components/device_tracker"><code class="highlighter-rouge">device_tracker</code></a> and <a href="/components/zeroconf"><code class="highlighter-rouge">zeroconf</code></a> components. It also provides functionality required for the iOS notify platform but will not automatically load the <code class="highlighter-rouge">notify</code> component or platform as of 0.31.1. You must manually load it. See the <a href="/ecosystem/ios/notifications/">iOS notify platform</a> for more information.</p>
<h2><a class="title-link" name="setup" href="#setup"></a> Setup</h2>
<h3>Automated Setup</h3>
<p>The <code class="highlighter-rouge">ios</code> component will automatically be loaded under the following circumstances:</p>
<ol>
<li>The <a href="/components/discovery"><code class="highlighter-rouge">discovery</code></a> component is enabled.</li>
<li>You have just installed the app and are at the getting started screen.</li>
</ol>
<p>Automated discovery and component loaded can only happen at first install of the app. You may need to wait a few minutes for the iOS component to load as the <code class="highlighter-rouge">discovery</code> component only scans the network every 5 minutes.</p>
<h3>Manual Setup</h3>
<p>You may also manually load the <code class="highlighter-rouge">ios</code> component by adding the following to your configuration:</p>
<div class="language-yaml highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code><span class="c1"># Example configuration.yaml entry</span>
<span class="s">ios</span><span class="pi">:</span>
</code></pre>
</div>
<p>Configuration variables:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>push</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Push notification configuration. See the <a href="/ecosystem/ios/notifications/">iOS <code class="highlighter-rouge">notify</code> platform</a> for more information.</li>
</ul>
