DESCRIPTION
Shion puts control of your home (and other environments) in your fingertips by allowing you to monitor and control lamps, appliances, and other devices using your Mac with modern and legacy home automation technologies. Favorite environment settings may be saved as snapshots and these may be bound to events such as sunrise & sunset, remote control presses, and prescheduled times.

Designed to be simple and powerful, Shion is the home automation program built for the rest of us. Its intuitive interface allows you to get up and running with a minimal amount of configuration and input. For more advanced users, it provides a complete AppleScript interface that allows the program to be easily incorporated into existing configurations.

Shion is free for use with three (3) or fewer controllable devices. To use Shion with larger configurations, you may purchase a license for $35 (USD).

    CJKARR  If you're having problems running Shion and have installed Indigo in the past, you need to remove a bit of software that Indigo installs into your system that prohibits other applications (such as Shion) from accessing your Insteon software. See

    My apologies for the inconvenience, and I'll be adding a detector for this file in the next release of the application.
