How to Control Your Entire Home with the Yubii Home App?

Controlling your home has never been as simple and intuitive as with the Yubii Home app. This smart home solution, developed by Nice, centralises control of all your connected equipment: lighting, roller shutters, gates, heating, alarms, household appliances and much more. Discover how the Yubii Home app transforms your daily life and gives you a truly smart home, wherever you are in the Caribbean.

 

Centralised, intuitive control

The Yubii Home Center app lets you manage all your devices from a single dashboard, on your smartphone, tablet or connected watch. As soon as you open the app, a clear summary of your home’s status appears: alarms, temperature, lights, doors, windows, shutters, gates… Everything is under control at a glance. You can also manage the home room by room to adjust each space to your needs.

 

Lifestyle modes and automated scenes

Yubii Home goes far beyond simple remote control. Thanks to its lifestyle modes (home, away, night, holiday), you can automate the entire home with a single gesture. For example, in “away” mode, the app can turn off all the lights, cut power to unnecessary appliances, close the shutters and arm the alarm. In “home” mode, it reactivates essential equipment and opens the shutters if the sun is up. These modes can be personalised to suit your habits.

You can also create your own scenes: automatic shutter opening at sunrise, heating managed according to the weather, lights turning on at nightfall, garden watering at a set time… The interface offers intuitive block-based creation or, for advanced users, LUA code.

 

Intelligent energy management

Yubii Home includes an energy panel that lets you track the real-time consumption of each device and of the whole home. You can then optimise your usage, reduce your bills and monitor your household’s environmental footprint. If you have solar panels or other renewable energy sources, the app can also track production.

 

Security and remote control

The app sends you instant notifications in the event of an alert: intrusion detection, water leak, smoke, door opening… You can view the cameras, arm or disarm the alarm, and even grant temporary access to other users (family, service providers, guests). Each user has their own rights and access codes.

 

Compatibility and scalability

Yubii Home is compatible with Nice, Fibaro and Elero devices and many third-party products thanks to the Z-Wave protocol and Wi-Fi. It supports voice control (Google Assistant, Alexa, Siri) and integrates with broader smart home platforms. The app also learns from your habits using artificial intelligence, to suggest relevant actions.

 

Fast, customisable installation

The Yubii Home gateway is easy to install via the app, by scanning the hub’s QR code or connecting to its Wi-Fi network. The setup wizard guides you step by step: network connection, location selection, account creation, adding devices… In just a few minutes, your home is connected and ready to be controlled.

 

Complete Guide: Automate Your Roller Shutters with Nice

Do you dream of opening and closing your roller shutters with a simple gesture, wherever you are? With Nice solutions, automating your shutters becomes accessible, intelligent and perfectly suited to the Caribbean climate. Discover how to transform your everyday comfort, strengthen your home’s security and optimise your energy consumption with Nice motorisation and smart home technology.

Why automate your roller shutters?

Automating your roller shutters means:

  • Greater comfort: no more operating each shutter by hand — everything happens with a click or automatically according to your daily routines.
  • Enhanced security: some models feature anti-lift systems to deter break-ins and simulate presence while you’re away.
  • Better insulation: programming the shutters to close during the hottest or coldest hours optimises the indoor temperature.
  • Added property value: a home fitted with motorised, connected shutters gains value and appeals through its modernity.

Nice roller shutter solutions

Nice offers a complete range of tubular motors, radio controls and connected modules to suit all types of shutters (new or existing). Nice motors are robust, quiet and designed to withstand Caribbean weather conditions. Solar models are ideal for installation without any electrical work — perfect for renovations or remote areas.

Key installation steps

  1. Choosing the right motor: check the weight, size and type of your shutter to select the appropriate Nice motor. Manuals and selection guides are available on the Nice website.
  2. Preparing the shutter: make sure the housing and shafts are compatible with the motorisation. Remove any unnecessary manual mechanism.
  3. Installing the motor: the motor fits inside the shutter’s rolling tube. Secure it firmly and connect it to the power supply (or to the solar cell for self-powered models).
  4. Electrical or solar connection: for electric motors, connect the live, neutral and earth wires. For solar motors, connect the motor to the photovoltaic cell and the battery.
  5. Setting the limit switches: adjust the upper and lower stop positions so the shutter opens and closes perfectly.
  6. Installing the controls: add a remote control, wall switch or connected module to operate your shutters remotely.

Automation and smart scenes

With Nice connected modules, control your roller shutters from your smartphone, wherever you are. Programme scenes such as:

  • Automatic opening at sunrise
  • Closing at nightfall or in the event of a storm
  • Presence simulation while on holiday
  • Centralisation: one single button for all the shutters in the home

The Nice app lets you create personalised routines, integrate your shutters into your smart home system (Yubii Home, voice assistants, etc.) and receive real-time notifications.

Tips for a successful installation

  • Plan your power supply: if you choose a wired motor, make sure there’s a power point near the shutter housing.
  • Choose solar models for renovations or places without easy access to electricity.
  • Call in a professional to guarantee a compliant, safe installation, especially if your setup is complex or you want to connect your shutters to a smart home system.
  • Maintain your shutters: clean the tracks regularly and check that the motor is working properly to extend the life of your installation.
