Where Does Homematic IP Store Home Config?

Homematic IP keeps home config on the Access Point or Control Unit with anonymous cloud, and no account to migrate.

Last updated

Homematic IP anchors on local hardware. Rooms, devices, and automations live on the Access Point or Home Control Unit. The app sandbox holds cached home state and connection details. Cloud involvement stays anonymous by design.

No account means no login-based migration. Adopt the existing Access Point from the new phone instead. Keep the unit powered and networked; it outranks every phone in the setup.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move Homematic IP to a new phone?

Homes bind to the Access Point, not the phone. Install the app on the new phone on the same network and adopt the existing installation. A reset Access Point means rebuilding rooms by hand.

What account does Homematic IP use?

None. The system works without names, emails, or phone numbers by design. Cloud data stays anonymous on German servers. The Access Point is the identity; the phone is a remote.
