Home Control is a solid app and was actually one of the first in this space. The main differences are: Itsyhome is open source (MIT), has a built-in webhook server with SSE event streaming so you can integrate it into scripts and dashboards, supports deeplinks for Shortcuts/Raycast/Alfred, has a Stream Deck plugin, and a CLI tool. The base app is also completely free. Basically I built it for people who want to go beyond just toggling devices from the menu bar.
