No, the Smarttimer Plus is a stand-alone time switch and cannot be operated via app or internet-based remote control. It is controlled directly on the device using the display and buttons.

If you want to operate your roller shutters via app or voice control, we recommend using SELVE Home 3 in combination with SELVE radio motors or commeo radio receivers. This allows you to conveniently control your roller shutters via smartphone – even remotely.
