What are the apps from the BAB APP MARKET intended for?

The apps in the BAB APP MARKET are smart home applications exclusively for the APPMODULE by BAB TECHNOLOGIE. They make it possible to integrate devices or functions into existing building control systems (e.g. KNX). This allows devices such as projectors, smart TVs, or robotic vacuum cleaners to be integrated into building control systems. By combining different apps, complex scenarios can be built.

What technical requirements are necessary?

To use our apps, an APPMODULE by BAB TECHNOLOGIE is required. The APPMODULE is installed as a DIN rail device in a KNX or EnOcean network. In addition to the building control system, the hardware matching the respective app may also be necessary. Further information on the technical requirements of the individual apps can be found in the respective product descriptions.

Can the APPMODULE be operated independently?

The APPMODULE can be operated as a standalone KNX device. For example, a KNX push-button sensor, a FRITZ!Box, and an APPMODULE with the corresponding app are enough to control WiFi at the push of a button.

Does the APPMODULE also work with existing visualizations?

The APPMODULE can be used without any problems alongside existing KNX visualizations, so to speak as an add-on. It doesn't even matter which one is involved (e.g. EIBPORT, Gira Homeserver, Eisbär, etc.).

How does purchasing apps work?

To shop in the BAB APP MARKET, you must be authenticated and registered as a business customer. Registration of an APPMODULE is also required for the purchase process.

How are apps installed?

After purchasing an app, the corresponding installation package is available for download and can be installed on the APPMODULE by the installer or system integrator. After installation, all necessary settings can be made in a clear web interface.

Are there updates for apps?

From time to time, developers may release updates for apps. The new app package can then be conveniently downloaded from the "Registered Devices" area or via the product page of the respective app. We recommend backing up the current system before every update. If the APPMODULE's network connection has internet access, you can alternatively check for updates comfortably via the web interface.

Who develops the apps?

All apps available in the BAB APP MARKET have been created by registered developers. Further information on individual apps can be found in the "Additional Information" section of each app.

What is the "Registered Devices" area?

In the "Registered Devices" area, you will find all the apps you have purchased. These remain permanently saved and can be downloaded again in case of loss. Here you also have the option of downloading different versions of an app you have purchased. As soon as you are logged in, you have access to this area.

Are the apps also available on a smartphone or tablet?

The apps from the BAB APP MARKET have been developed for the APPMODULE, not for the smartphone. Many KNX visualizations offer smartphone visualization, so the functions of the APPMODULE can also be operated via mobile phone. Many apps (if supported) can also be controlled via SMARTSCREENS (Learn more).
