Control4 X4

Control4 X4 – Coming In 2025

2025 will see the release of the much anticipated, next generation, Control4 X4 operating system.

With even more personalization, you will be seeing new features to allow you to adapt and self-manage your home screen delivering more simplicity and quick access to your favourite functions.

In our pre-release sneak preview, we look ahead as a teaser of what’s anticipated in the new release.

Control4 Curated Routines:

X4 will expand personalization to enable self-curated ‘routines’. We envisage something like giving you the capability to, for example, create your own ‘Morning Scene’ schedule. Perhaps as an example allowing you to activate common area blinds and kitchen task lights to your typical morning routine. Or perhaps another ‘Routines’ example could be to allow you to set ‘Heated Towel Rail Usage’ in a more energy efficient way. Or a ‘Preventative Security’ routine – When the neighborhood is experiencing an uptick in crime, create a routine to elevate your property lighting as an enhanced preventative measure.

    The beauty ‘Control4 X4 routines’ promises, is adaptive convenience to easily fine tune the home to be even more responsive to your living patterns as they change!

    Control4 Curated Routines:

    X4 pre-release announcements indicate empowering you to configure your home screen to bring the services you engage with most often to the forefront, in new convenient ways.

    Think of customizable widgets allowing you to personalize your home screen to your liking and enjoy quick access to frequently desired functions. A live porch camera view for example.  Or perhaps allow a quick glance to know the status of the kid’s basement Rumpus Room air conditioning zone if unoccupied, or the status of the pedestrian gate as being ‘closed’ after guest usage or delivery access.

    Having that quick glance capability of the most important services you rely upon, will make an expansive or multi-level home even more manageable.

    With the ability to swap out, resize, and rearrange, ‘widget’ preferences will give you more choice to optimize your home screen and room-view layout.

    Control4 Apple HomeKit Integration

    For Apple lovers, Control4-X4 will allow you to independently manage devices, access scenes, and convert all devices in the Apple ecosystem into customizable interfaces with a new level of independence. Everything from Car Play, Apple widgets, and of course new possibilities with Control4 Siri integration too.

    And if you missed the announcement earlier this year, Control4 Apple music control for browsing and playing content within the Control4 touchscreen and smartphone app is now available adding to the expanding Apple experience.
