Do the remote AND hub transmit infrared commands received from the iPhone app? I need two IR transmitters for use with the phone.

The phone communicates via the wifi network. The IR comes from the hub and transmitters (which plug into the hub). Does this answer your question?

The remote talks to the hub, same as your phone would do. The hub sends the commands to the devices. It does come with an extra infrared transmitter that plugs into the hub. You can place that one in a closed Cabinet or something like that. The hub has space to plug two of those in. I love this remote it works very well.

The Remote communicates through an RF signal to the hub, much like a wireless xbox 360 controller communicate to an xbox. No line of site needed by the remote itself. The app on your phone works over wifi to communicate to the hub. Again no line of site needed. The hub itself should be within the vicinity of devices being controlled without too many obstructions. The hub will communicate to the devices via IR, and Bluetooth dependent on the devices requirements. The hub works surprisingly well. This remote does come with 1 IR extender which is a cable that plugs into the back of the hub and has an IR blaster on the other end that you can put in front of a device that is inside a cabinet or just not in the line of sight of the hub. The hub has 2 spots for this to plug in on the back so if your need to purchase another IR extender cable, that can be done. I love this remote. Very easy setup and very quick response time, even when using the app.

From Logitech's support page:The Harmony Smart Control remote and Harmony Smart Keyboard doesn't control devices directly, but communicates with the Harmony Hub using radio frequency (RF) that then relays the command to your devices using IR. The remote does not require a direct line of sight with your devices, nor with the hub.

No, the remote is bluetooth and communicates with the hub, which then sends the IR info.

The short answer is no. The longer answer is this device receives an IP signal encoded with a command that is then translated to an series of IR commands that is transmitted to IR receivers on your devices ( HDTV, DVD ...). So, This device only transmits. This device does not have the ability to receive to the best of my knowledge. I hope this helps.

The app works from both my phone and tablet via WiFi or cell. Only thing I cannot control remotely is turning my camera alarms on or off. Kind of a pain if my wife stays home for the day after I leave. I did find I can remotely turn them so she does not constantly alarm the motion sensor.

Roku's 2 XS (called the game remote) remote use Bluetooth technology to transmit signals, but all current units can (using iOS or Android apps) receives commands over the network (WiFi or Wired depending on unit and your connection).Here is the listing of current units --> http://www.roku.com/roku-products

Yes, all this does is repeat I signals sent from your remote. It will work with any device that uses infrared remote.

The device can learn IR commands, but cannot receive or transmit http requests.I hope this helps.It can only send IR commands and learn IR commands.

Insteon devices only work once you have the hub. The hub is what is controlled by the iPhone app. Everything that the hub controls can be controlled through the app. Works very well.

Well, you can download apps for a iPhone (late version, I don't recall whether it's 4 or 5) so as to use it as a remote. My old iPhone didn't qualify for the app, alas.

I think remote notifications are all handled within the Apple servers, so I think that only iOS devices would get them. That question may be better answered by the manufacturer.

As far as I can tell, this product is only manually operated. I don't see a IR window on it and a remote isn't mentioned in the directions.

You are correct. The IR signal from the hub will work if the IR receiver on the device can see the IR signal from the hub. I tried positioning my hub above my devices on the opposite wall of the closet to see if it would work and it did. In the end the electrical outlet I could plug the hub into was on the same wall as the shelves as my AV equipment so I mounted the hub on that wall and ran a sensor to each device I wanted to control. Bottom line is try putting the hub in different locations and see if it will work. Once you decide where you want to put the hub that will decide if you need to use the sensors or not.

No, actually ipads don't have any infrared sensor. So, this apple remote will not work in iPads and iPhones. Maybe, Apple would release it in a future versions. But I am not sure.

I don't think a phone puts out infrared (IR) which is what all tv's currently use for their remotes. So for a phone to me used as a remote (it puts out wifi) you need an adapter that hooks to your TV, several companies make these Logitech has the Harmony Home Hub, http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/harmony-home-hub?crid=60 that from what I can tell, would do what you want. I have no first hand experience, but did some research not long ago with the same idea.

The remote is IR bur it has built in wifi so your phone or tablet can control this device.

No. It is an infrared receiver, not a transmitter. It will allow you to use a universal remote to control your PC.

Although I have not tried it myself, I read the owners manual and it does seem to indicate that you can use an IR remote with it. Like I said I haven't tried it myself so I'm not 100% sure..

Keep in mind this only repeats commands from Logitech hubs. Since I'm not sure what your remote setup is, I cannot say for sure whether it will work in your setup. I use the blaster to extend my Logitech RF system to an additional IR device that's not in plain sight of my DVR, receiver, Apple TV and Blu-Ray. I believe it will only work with the Logitech Hub.
