X10 Commander is an X10 Controller Client for the iPhone/iPod/iPad/Android and is a native application that allows you to control X10 devices anywhere in the world. Ever wanted to close the garage door while lying in your bed? How about turn the outdoor floodlights on but didn't feel like walking back downstairs to turn them on? Now you can! All you need is an X10 CM11, CM12, CM15, CM17 Firecracker, CM19, or Marmitek CM15Pro device connected to your computer and X10 Commander will allow you to control all your X10 devices.

X10 Commander consists of two pieces...a server piece which runs on your PC/Mac/Linux and the client piece which runs on your iPhone/iPod/iPad/Android device. The PC application is free and available from our Downloads section, the MacOSX support is provided by Thinking Home software from AlwaysThinking.com and the Linux/Unix support is provided by Heyu and a custom shell script.
