About this app

Broadlink RM controller are cheap controllers able to learn & retransmit IR and RF signal, making it possible to control several home appliances with ease.
However, it has never been possible to program and customized the experience outside of their proprietary Broadlink eControl apps.
Not any more! With this Tasker plugin, you can configure these RM Controller to work exactly the way you want it, when you want it.
Friendly APIs are provided for custom integration with whatever home automation system you are using.


☑ Compatibility
Compatible with Broadlink RM2, RM Home, RM Pro, RM3 Mini (BlackBean), SP2, SPMini, Contros, A1.
S1 & other sensors might by supported in future versions.


☑ Widget
This let you add a widget/button on your home screen to directly control Broadlink RM at a few simple clicks.


☑ Amazon Echo Integration
This app acts as a bridge between your Amazon Echo & Broadlink devices and let you control supported Broadlink devices with your voice. Simply enable this feature & tell Alexa to "discover devices".


☑ HTTP Bridge
This app acts as a HTTP Bridge and let you control your Broadlink devices via simple HTTP urls (a.k.a curl commands). API syntax are extremely user-friendly and well-documented right inside the app. It is now much easier to integrate RM device into your home automation setup.


☑ Android Wear
Trigger your devices & macros directly from your watch.


☑ 3G Bridge
You can control your Broadlink RM devices even from outside of your home WiFi network, as a Tasker plugin or a homescreen widget. You'll simply need to enable a Bridge device within your home WiFi network. Refer to screenshot and in-app FAQ for more details.


☑ Import existing data from Broadlink app
You don't have to painstakingly re-learn all the IR or RF you have done with Broadlink eControl app. This plugin takes data directly from Broadlink eControl app without you having to manual copy & paste anything. Once you're done with that, you can even uninstall Broadlink eControl app entirely.


☑ Free trial
You have 7 days to try out the unlocked version for free! Please download it separately from here: http://bit.ly/rm_trial


WARNING:
This app can be used both as a plugin in Tasker or a standalone app.

I've had this working fine for almost three years, with only very occasional glitches. Of course it made everything look to Alexa like a simple on/off light switch, which is a bit limiting, but was usable with some workarounds. Now it doesn't work at all with Alexa - which may be due to an Amazon update - but it makes it useless to me.

This app is amazing. With a little help from IFTTT, I am able to use the http server in this app to control all my TV/TV equipment, projector, speakers and even the Dyson air fan with my broadlinks straight from the Google home devices. Keep up the great work. One little suggestion, would it be possible to learn individual codes straight from the Code List. At the moment I seem to have to create a macro, learn the code, then delete the macro which creates the Code in the Code list. I think it would be easier to learn all the codes first, then construct the macros later.

Flakes out to often. Second go round where it works until an update happens and.. that was I dunno how long ago. All devices are not responding. Edit: wait. Wasn't the tasker guy the original developer? If so. Then F off. I'll switch to a new app or work around. Cuz how long before this app installs malware.
