UpaSmartHome
Intuitive Smart Home Control & Telemetry
Monitor live temperature sensors, configure automated heating and boiler routines, control multi-channel relays (including garage doors), and get instant push alerts for water leaks, motion, and door/window security events - all from Phone & Tablet.
Get Started
Download the free app, then choose how you want to run it - self-hosted on your own Pi at no cost, or see our hardware kits and cloud plans.
Explore the Mobile Interface
Seamless user experience designed for iOS & Android phones and tablets.
Smart Sensors & Telemetry
Monitor live temperature, target thresholds, humidity levels, battery states, and connection parameters for every room in your home.
Live Sensor Telemetry Demo
Real-time room monitoring with instant status highlights.
Core Ecosystem Features
Built for speed, reliability, and total smart home control.
Telemetry & Thermostats
Real-time temperature and humidity tracking with interactive thermostat controls and target setpoint management.
Relay Automation
Instant control over multi-channel switches, heating modules, water boilers, lighting circuits, and even a garage door opener - all through the same simple on/off relay channel, with low latency.
Alert Notification Center
Stay informed with instant push alerts for critical events, low battery warnings, and safety triggers via FCM.
Complete Home Security & Safety
One system for every alarm sensor - door and window contacts, motion, water leaks, and vibration - alongside your heating and relay automation.
Door & Window Contact
Get notified the instant a door or window opens or closes - from the front door to the garage, track every entry point in real time.
Motion Detection
Occupancy sensors flag movement in any room, so you know the moment someone (or something) is there, even when you're away.
Water Leak Detection
Catch a leaking pipe, water heater, or washing machine early with dedicated leak sensors and instant push alerts.
Vibration Alerts
Detect tampering, forced entry attempts, or unexpected impacts on windows and doors with vibration-triggered notifications.
Works With Apple, Google & Amazon
Control your smart home with the voice assistant you already use - no extra apps required.
Apple HomeKit
Pair directly with the Home app and control everything with Siri - HomeKit runs entirely on your local network, no cloud account required.
Google Home & Assistant
Add UpaSmartHome to Google Home as a Matter device to adjust thermostats, check sensors, and toggle switches with 'Hey Google' - locally on your network, no account linking needed. Requires a Matter-capable Google Nest or Chromecast device at home.
Amazon Alexa
Two ways to use Alexa: add UpaSmartHome as a Matter device in the Alexa app - local, no account linking, but it needs a Matter-capable Echo device at home - or link your account once to use the official Alexa Smart Home skill, which works with just the Alexa app on your phone and lets you control everything by voice from anywhere.
Three Ways to Run UpaSmartHome
From a fully managed cloud to fully offline on your own Pi - pick the level of independence that's right for you.
Local Only - Just This Pi
The simplest option, built into every unit - no extra software, no server to run. Choose "Self-Hosted" during setup instead of entering a pairing code, then point the app's Custom API Server at your Pi's own address. Free forever, no account of any kind.
Self-Hosted, Free
The app itself costs nothing. Run your own API server matching our published REST/WebSocket contract, point the app at it, and you're fully independent - no dependency on us at all.
Managed by Us
Prefer not to run your own server? Switch the app to a custom API/WebSocket endpoint on our existing upanet.org backend instead - 60 EUR/year, same pricing as our Digital Pro Cloud plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers to common questions about hardware, privacy, local automation, and integrations.
What is UpaSmartHome and how does it work?
UpaSmartHome is a local-first smart home automation platform powered by Raspberry Pi and Zigbee2MQTT. It connects wireless temperature, door/window, motion, water leak, and vibration sensors directly to multi-channel relay modules and boiler heating circuits with sub-millisecond local response times.
Does UpaSmartHome require an internet connection or subscription?
No. Core automations, Zigbee device pairing, heating schedules, relay toggles, and Apple HomeKit work 100% locally on your home network without internet. An optional cloud subscription is only needed for remote access outside the home, push notifications, and Amazon Alexa voice control.
Which voice assistants and smart home ecosystems are supported?
UpaSmartHome natively supports Apple HomeKit (local Siri & Apple Home app), Google Home & Google Assistant through Matter (voice commands and thermostat controls, locally on your network with no account linking; needs a Google Nest or Chromecast device at home), and Amazon Alexa (through Matter with no account linking, which needs an Echo device at home, or the Alexa Smart Home skill, which works with just the Alexa app on your phone and also for remote control).
What hardware is included with the Complete Starter Kit?
The starter kit (399 EUR) includes a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (Gigabit LAN), an 8-channel Waveshare Industrial Relay HAT, 5x SONOFF SNZB-02D Zigbee LCD temperature & humidity sensors, Zigbee coordinator gateway, power adapters, and 1 year of free cloud subscription (then 60€/year).
How does automated boiler and multi-room heating work?
Each room with a wireless temperature sensor functions as an independent thermostat. By matching labels between room sensors and relay channels, UpaSmartHome automatically switches boiler pumps, motorized zone valves, or electric heaters to maintain your exact target temperature in each room.
Can I use my own Raspberry Pi or third-party Zigbee sensors?
Yes. UpaSmartHome runs on standard Raspberry Pi 4 and 5 hardware and supports thousands of Zigbee2MQTT-compatible devices, including SONOFF, Tuya, and Aqara sensors, plus Tasmota-flashed Wi-Fi relays.
How do I set up Raspberry Pi Wi-Fi without a monitor or keyboard?
You can configure Wi-Fi on a headless Raspberry Pi directly from the UpaSmartHome mobile app over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) in seconds—no Ethernet cable, monitor, or keyboard required.
Is there an open API for custom integrations and self-hosting?
Yes. Every UpaSmartHome controller includes a full REST and WebSocket API with interactive OpenAPI / Swagger documentation at /docs/, allowing you to build custom dashboards, scripts, or connect your own backend servers.
