THE OPTVUE WINDOW CONTROLLER

Motorized windows, now one tap away

A motorized window changes how a home lives. The kitchen opens to the patio. The bar opens to the backyard. A wall of glass opens to the view.


Now controlling it is as easy as the rest of your smart home. A clean, full-screen Optvue control lives right on your phone's home screen:

  • UP / OPEN: Opens all the way and stops by itself.

  • STOP: Stops exactly where you want it.

  • DOWN / CLOSE: Closes all the way and stops by itself.


The screen shows OPENING, CLOSING or STOPPED in real time, on iPhone and Android.



TWO WAYS TO CONTROL

Wall switch + phone


Two ways to control an Optvue motorized window: wall switch and phone over home Wi-Fi

The wall switch

Mounted beside the window. Hold up to open, hold down to close, let go to stop.

Works from day one, during construction and without Wi-Fi or internet.

Your phone

One tap over your home Wi-Fi. Your installer adds the Optvue control to every family phone in minutes.

No app store download. No account.



SMART BY DESIGN

Private, simple, no subscription


Optvue smart motorized window controller features: one tap, home Wi-Fi, no app store or fees, built-in safety

  • Nothing to download: No app store and no account to create.

  • No monthly fees: Ever.

  • Runs on your home Wi-Fi: Keeps working even if your internet service goes down.

  • Private by design: Nothing about your window is exposed to the internet.



THE LINEUP

Made for every motorized Optvue window

  • Motorized awning windows: Open up and out to the patio or deck.

  • Motorized bar windows: Kitchen and outdoor-bar pass-throughs over a counter.

  • Motorized pass-through windows: Connect indoor and outdoor living.

  • Oversized motorized windows: Restaurants, commercial spaces and large residential openings.


See the full lineup on our motorized windows page.



INSTALLATION

From construction to move-in

New construction

The wall switch works from day one, so builders, painters and inspectors can run the window without Wi-Fi. Phone control is added in one short visit at move-in.


Remodels

Wi-Fi already up and running? The wall switch and phone control are set up the same day.



PEACE OF MIND

Safety built in

  • Automatic stops at fully open and fully closed.

  • A built-in run-time limit on every phone command.

  • Support for a sash-edge safety sensor that stops the window on contact.

  • After a power outage, nothing moves on its own.


Motorized operation also makes large windows easy for everyone, including people with limited mobility.
