Hi everyone,

Tired of guessing when to run your washing machine to save on energy costs? Power Profiler takes the guesswork out of it.

What it does

Pair it with any smart plug that reports power usage, and Power Profiler will:

  1. Learn your appliance’s power profile automatically — it detects wash cycles, dry cycles, etc. and builds a minute-by-minute consumption pattern
  2. Fetch day-ahead energy prices from your provider (EasyEnergy, EnergyZero, Frank Energie, ANWB Energie, Mijndomein Energie)
  3. Schedule the cheapest start time — using the actual power profile shape, not just a flat kWh estimate
  4. Trigger a flow when it’s time to start, so you can automate turning on the plug

Flow cards

  • Trigger: “Cheapest start time reached” / “Cycle completed”
  • Condition: “Has a profile” / “Is scheduled”
  • Action: “Schedule cheapest start before deadline” / “Clear schedule”

Tracks your savings

The device page shows total energy used, estimated cost, current electricity price, and cycle count — so you can see exactly how much you’re saving over time.

Requirements

  • Homey Pro (firmware ≥12.2.0)
  • A smart plug with power measurement (e.g. Fibaro Wall Plug, Shelly Plug S, Neo Coolcam)

Links

Feedback and bug reports are very welcome — this is the first release, so I’d love to hear how it works with your appliances!

Thanks @smarthomesven for the quick assist! :+1:

@SingKT — the app is currently in the Test phase, so the regular App Store link doesn’t work yet. As Sven mentioned, you can install it via the test link:

The GitHub link should work though — if it’s still giving you a 404, let me know.

Once the app passes the test phase, the regular link will start working. I’d love for you to give it a try and let me know how it goes!

The GitHub link still gives a 404 :cry:
