Actually I don't have an iPhone myself - but it seems to be the
smartphone of choice for this kind of control app. ;-)

Also, I'm not fixated on Ubuntu, but merely I have used GlobalScale plug
computers in a couple of places where I wanted the equivalent of a
single board computer but with power supply and interfaces already built
into a neat package; that plug computer (GlobalScale) comes with Ubuntu
in firmware. For my very basic uses it was easy to configure. If the
decoding software was written to be more agnostic about platform, that
could only be better.
