Upgrade to Roomie 8

If you are using an older app such as Simple Control 4/5 or others, upgrade to the modern Roomie Remote 8 app. Simply leave your older app installed on your iOS device and install the Roomie Remote 8 app on the same device. The base app is a free upgrade, and any existing Simple Service purchased via Simple Control 5 is compatible as your subscription. Active subscription is required for all functionality.

Your old configuration will be copied over to the new app automatically and upgraded one time when you install V8. The original configuration is not touched so if you were to return to the old app, you will see your old configuration and changes made in V8 will not be reflected in an older app. Note that V6, V7, and V8 are the same app, so that does not apply. V6 and V7 subscriptions do not require any steps to transfer to V8.

If you have an existing Simple Service you can follow the instructions for transferring your Simple Service to Roomie Remote 8. The key is to use the Restore Purchases button in the old app to reflect your subscription in V8. This must be performed each time your subscription renews until you move your subscription to V8. Once you’re on the modern subscriptions, that issue is resolved.

Please note: Roomie Remote 8.5 requires iOS 16 or later. The minimum iOS version is increased by one major every year. For example, the expected minimum in Fall 2024 is iOS 17.
