Hi Eleanor
Yes Thats why I mentioned that. The keypad needs its own Wi-Fi that is
plugged into a port of your modem. There must be a port on your modem by
default. Might be hopefully hidden under a slot.

amazing! Is it not wireless? I have a wireless Wi-Fi so obviously that
wouldn't be much good as I don't have anything that would plug-in to another
piece of equipment. my hub is a portable one with a SIM card.

Hi all
I paid 150e at the time. Note it needs a Wi-Fi small hub that plugs into
the modem and a power socket. The controller/keypad works on batteries and
can be installed anywhere. Setup is unfriendly so get the installer to do
the heavy lifting like hive id code and set you up. If you have some
vision left the actual and set temperatures are bright white on the keypad.
The iPhone app has an orange or blue backgrounds for the temperature dial
and can be hard for me. So I use Siri. I tested voice over and it sounds
very accessible. I had linked to apple HomeKit to get Siri working. Hope
this is useful.

Hi Joe,
Sorry I’ve no idea at this stage, as I haven’t spoken to them about it
properly yet.
I did get the phone number for the team who look after it though if you
want to get more info. It’s 016110189

Hi John,
That’s great,. Thanks so much.
If you could take a quick look with VoiceOver to make sure it is usable,
that’d be great, though it sounds like it is.
Cheers,
Dave

Hi David
I use Hive controller with a gas boiler. This can be used to control
the central heating and hot water separately. Also can do zones
depending on valve setup and plumbing. For accessibility I use Siri
rather than voice over. On the app go to menu - works with- choose
Alexa, google or Siri and follow the allow settings . I just press the
home button and say “ set heating to 19C or to 6C.†Brilliant when
out and have the house warm when you get home. Yet to try with voice
over but could test that if you wish.

Hey David.
I've never used hive. I have tried nest. I know people who use Hive
and they said its accessible with voiceover. I've also never heard of
anyone having any accessibility issues with it.
I didn't like nest.

Hi all,
I’ve just moved in to a new place and have set up my electricity
and gas supply with Bord Gais.
They offer the Hive system to their customers.
At the moment the apartment has a very old school panel on the
boiler which I think I will struggle to use.
If it works with my system, would Hive be a good move? Is the app
accessible with VoiceOver?
Any help appreciated.
Dave
