you can use an appletv 4 as a hub, or any dedicated apple device
Roomie v6.0+ does not require a hub. In 6.0+ the concept of a hub is replaced by the concept of a "controller." Any device can be a controller and the system will automatically elect one device to be the controller. It is possible to have a primary or preferred controller, but it is not strictly required. The system is much more flexible now. I still prefer having a primary dedicated controller, but this is personal OCD preference.
Today's Roomie controls 400,000+ devices.
Roomie Remote X brings TVs, receivers, streamers, lights, and whole-home audio into one app on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV.
