Web version

The same home in a browser. The rights are the same as in the app: the browser signs in by invite, gets its own access, and the owner sees and revokes it in the shared list. Editing the home with a mouse on a big screen is easier than with a finger on a phone, so a lot of the web version is built for editing.

Address

The web version is served by the homer-app service on the home server, at the /web/ path.

From	Address
At home	http://<server address>:8740/web/
Outside	https://<external domain>/web/ — through homer-gate, see Installation

From outside, the external entry rules apply: access without Remote access walks through the home but doesn't control it. Without access, the web version serves only the sign-in page.

Sign-in

The sign-in page has two tabs:

• With an invite — a code, an invite link or a link to a place in the home. You can also set a name and a face picture for the walk here. An invite link signs you in by itself, no clicks needed.
• Owner key — the key you got in the app. Without the Remember in this browser checkbox it's forgotten as soon as you close the tab.

Sign out in this browser is in the menu under your name.

Plan

Four views of one home: Plan, Isometric, 3D and Walk. Lights switch right on the plan, a room opens a panel with lights, groups and sensors. The walk has neighbors, voice and the home chat; in a headset browser there is a Headset button (WebXR). The ⤓ button in 3D exports the whole home as .glb with furniture and textures.

More — Plan and walk.

Home editing

The Edit button on the flat plan, from the “Edits home” level. The switch at the top chooses what you edit: Devices and items or Walls and rooms.

• Devices and items — drag devices with the mouse, including into another room. A light group moves as a whole.
• Device card — name, kind, Home Assistant entity, height, power, meters, “Not everyone controls it”, how it lights in 3D.
• Walls and rooms — walls, doors, windows, rooms, stairs, roof.
• Items and finishes — furniture, floors, walls and facade from the Poly Haven catalog or as your own .glb file. Where items come from shows thumbnails, author and license.
• Home: name, tariff, step, location… — name, electricity tariff, step and jump in the walk, location on the map and north.
• Undo and Redo — Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Shift+Z.
• How to save: right away, right away with rollback in 10 minutes, or as a draft for the owner. See Edit rollback.

More — Plan and walk.

The “Access” page

Owner only. Web version address, the Telegram bridge, remote support, a link to “Home status” and the access list with invites. See Access and levels.

Menu under your name

• Settings — me at home (name, face, clothes color), walk, view, catalog keys, notifications and Telegram, Homer speaker.
• Light or dark theme.
• Something wrong? Send to support technician… — a home snapshot for troubleshooting, see Support.
• Home status and Home passport — for the owner and the support technician, see Diagnostics.
• What this browser is allowed: voice, camera face, remote control.

Alarms

While the tab is open, an alarm is shown as a red bar on top of everything, with a siren and a Got it button. See Alarms.

What the web version doesn't have

• A background alarm guard. A closed tab won't show an alarm. At night the alarm is delivered by the Android app, Telegram and speakers.
• The “Energy” screen. The tariff can be set, but consumption charts are only in the app.
• The “home in your pocket” demo mode.
• Several Homer servers. The web version works with the Homer server that serves it and switches only its homes.
• “Become owner”. The owner key is issued by the app; on the web it's only used to sign in.
