ZigDash

ZigDash is the MQTT dashboard built for Zigbee2MQTT — control your Zigbee smart home from your phone. It discovers your devices automatically, so your dashboard builds itself. No cloud, no ads, no account: free and open source.

Control lights, shutters, switches and sensors from your phone or a wall-mounted tablet — and automate on your hub, even when your phone is off.

Requires a running Zigbee2MQTT and an MQTT broker on your network. No Zigbee2MQTT yet? The app includes a demo home to look around.

AUTO-DISCOVERY FOR ZIGBEE2MQTT

• Scan your Zigbee2MQTT bridge and create a panel for every device with a single tap — no manual topic wiring.

• JSON path extraction on every panel, so ZigDash understands real Zigbee2MQTT messages out of the box.

• Per-panel custom topics, QoS, and retain when you want full control.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

CONNECT TO ANY BROKER

• Any MQTT broker — TCP, SSL/TLS, WebSocket, WSS (Mosquitto, EMQX, HiveMQ, SMLIGHT).

• Broker discovery auto-scans your local network.

• Username/password in hardware-backed secure storage — never plain text.

• Live status with automatic exponential-backoff reconnect.

• Tailscale support: remote access over your WireGuard mesh, no port forwarding.

• Multiple brokers with instant switching.

• A full MQTT client under the hood: publish and subscribe to any topic.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

16 PANEL TYPES — CONTROL EVERYTHING

Toggle, Button, Slider, Cover (open/stop/close with presets), Multi-State, Combo, Radio, LED Indicator, Node Status, Progress, Text Input, Text Log, Scene, Schedule, Auto-Close Rule, and Zigbee2MQTT Device Discovery. From lights

and shutters to sensors and scenes — one Zigbee dashboard for every device.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

AUTOMATION — RUNS WHEN YOUR PHONE IS OFF

• Schedule panels: daily open/close timers saved as retained MQTT config.

• Auto-Close Rules: turn a device off N seconds after it turns on — perfect for fans, pumps, and timed lights.

• Both run on your always-on hub (Node-RED on SMLIGHT, Raspberry Pi, or any MQTT-aware device). Bundled Node-RED flows included.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

POLISHED — PHONE & TABLET

• Material 3 with light, dark, and system themes; Android 12+ Material You dynamic color.

• Phone and tablet, portrait and landscape — ideal as a wall panel or wall-mounted home automation dashboard.

• Available in English, French, German, Spanish, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Russian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil) and Hebrew (עברית), with automatic RTL.

• Responsive panel grid (full, half, third width), dashboard lock, backup/restore as portable JSON, scenes.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

100% PRIVATE. NO CLOUD.

• No ads. No account. Anonymous usage data only if you opt in.

• Your data lives on your device and your MQTT broker — nowhere else.

• Open source (MIT). The code is public and auditable.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

You run Zigbee2MQTT with your own broker (Mosquitto on a Raspberry Pi, SMLIGHT SMHUB…) — maybe alongside Home Assistant — and want fast control of your smart home from your phone or a wall tablet without opening the Zigbee2MQTT

web UI. Tired of cloud-dependent apps, vendor lock-in, and data collection? ZigDash is for you.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

WHAT YOU NEED

• A Zigbee2MQTT setup with an MQTT broker on your local network.

• Tailscale (optional) for remote access from outside your home.

• Node-RED (optional) for hub-side automation.
