iPhone: widgets, Control Center, Siri
Scenes and devices from the Home Screen, from Control Center or with Siri.
Widgets
Widgets are available from iOS 18. Touch and hold the Home Screen, tap Edit → Add Widget and search for "nomos system". You can choose from:
| Widget | Shows |
|---|---|
| Scenes Widget | all scenes of a Controller, ready to start |
| Favorite Scenes Widget | only your favorite scenes |
| Device Widget | the devices in a room |
| Favorite Device Widget | your favorite devices |
| Room Widget | all rooms in a zone |
| Zone Widget | all zones of a Controller |
| Garage Door Widget | your garage doors, to open and close, see Garage door |
On the Lock Screen there are the Scenes Widget and the Favorite Scenes Widget with up to two scenes, and the round widget Scene for a single scene that you choose when adding it. There the iPhone asks for Face ID or the passcode before running a scene.
Touch and hold a widget and choose Edit Widget to set the Controller, room or zone. In CarPlay (from iOS 26) the two scene widgets and the Garage Door Widget (CarPlay) are available.
Garage door
You open and close garage doors without opening the app. Each door has two fixed buttons, Open and Close, and shows Opened or Closed. After a tap it briefly shows Opening … or Closing …. If the command does not get through, for example because the Controller cannot be reached, it briefly shows Failed in red.
| Where | What happens before it runs |
|---|---|
| Garage Door Widget on the Home Screen (up to two doors) | The first tap turns the button red (Open? or Close?); only a second tap within 8 seconds runs it. |
| Garage Door Widget on the Lock Screen | The iPhone asks for Face ID or the passcode. |
| Garage Door in Control Center | On a locked iPhone it asks for Face ID or the passcode. When you add it, you choose the door and the action. |
| Siri: "Open the garage door with nomos", "Close the garage door with nomos" | On a locked iPhone it asks for Face ID or the passcode. With several doors, say the name: "Open Garage North with nomos". |
| Garage Door Widget (CarPlay) in CarPlay (from iOS 26) | A single tap is enough, as with garage doors in Apple Home. |
You see the garage doors you may operate in the app. On the go, this needs remote access.
Control Center
In Control Center you can add controls that run a scene, open or close a garage door, or open the app at a device, room or zone: Run Scene, Garage Door, Open Device, Open Room, Open Floor.
Siri and Shortcuts
Say, for example, "Run nomos scene", and Siri asks which scene. For your garage door, say "Open the garage door with nomos" or "Close the garage door with nomos", see Garage door. Other commands open the app at the Overview, a device, room or zone, the cameras or the statistics. In the Shortcuts app, you find all actions of the nomos system app and can build your own routines from them.
Quick actions
Long-press the app icon: up to four of your favorite scenes appear, ready to start directly. Without favorite scenes, the quick actions take you to the Overview, to your zones and to the devices.
