    I went in my local Costco store and finally bumped into the Insteon Home Control Starter Kit I've seen talked about on WC. This starter kit is selling for 99.00 dollars. The Windows Phone logo on the box looked great. I'm interested in it controlling my thermostat and maybe the light in my foyer.

    Have you tried Insteon yet? What did you think?

    So that's what a "Download from the Windows Store" info box looks like on a product in real life!

    Sadly not available for W10M. And from the comments it looks to be very basic in comparison to iOS and Android.

    Recent reviews? Even this version doesn't look "basic". What reviews did you read?

    It was based on the comments I read in Windows Store for the Insteon for Hub app. Since I couldn't install on W10M I was not able to verify for myself and was just repeating comments from others.

    Please everyone email jdada@insteon.com. He is the CEO of Insteon and has responded regarding windows 10 coming soon, but that was last Sep. We need him to know that Windows users want a W10 app.
    For the OP, I have numerous Insteon products, thermostat, wifi bulb, camera and they all work flawlessly, except.cant control anything since W10M update...have to use old.iPhone 4 , which is really pitiful.

    I received a reply to my email. They are working on a universal app and it is a few weeks away from being available. Sweet!

    I was told in the mean time that the W8.1 version will work on W10 desktop and tablets.

    Very disappointed that the app keeps crashing, Im getting ready to invest in Instron for our home with thermostats, smoke bridge, garage kit, etc..... Without a solid app for the phone it is a crippled system.

    Maybe its conflicting with an app you have on your device. I'm curious, what device is the app crashing on?
