Strangely, the only visible change I found in this update since 2.01 was a complete Danish translation. Nice &#8211; hopefully this means that Miele@home support in Denmark is not too far away. <strong>Update, September 6th 2016: I just found out that the geo-restriction in Google Play is also gone, or at least expanded to include Denmark.

I&#8217;m allowed within EU to buy all the hardware in Germany, but the only app that exists for the system, I&#8217;m not allowed to use. With my very expensive appliances and Miele@home gateway\/modules I might add. Luckily in Android there are ways to get the app anyway, but my girlfriend can&#8217;t download the app for iPhone and use the system at all.<\/li>\n<li>Why not open up the new JSON-RPC API, so better 3rd party apps could be written, that didn&#8217;t have to depend only on the old broken Homebus protocol? This would make the system more useful since new ways to use the sytem would arise.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By incident I found out yesterday that the Miele@mobile app was updated in Google Play back in May.
