[DEPRECATED] We Connect / myAudi / MyŠKODA / My SEAT / My Cupra - Simply stay connected
IMPORTANT:
(updated: 03-03-2025)
I’ve made the decision to remove the apps from the Homey App Store. While they will still be available for current users, they will no longer receive updates moving forward.
The primary reason for this decision is that the apps have been breaking every month, and without an official API, I don’t have the necessary resources or ability to fix the issues that arise.
There was a slight hope that Homey might establish a partnership with Cariad (the vendor maintaining the VAG APIs), but that doesn’t seem likely at this point.
Additionally, VAG is once again changing their APIs, this time moving to an MQTT-based solution. Given the constant changes, it’s simply no longer feasible for me to keep up and maintain these apps.
I’m still hoping for some form of cooperation, but I have to face the reality that it might not happen. I appreciate everyone’s understanding, and I will continue to monitor the situation in the hopes of a positive resolution. However, as of now, no updates will be made, and support will be limited.
Thanks for your support over the years, and I hope this helps clarify the situation.

Q1:What is a S-PIN A1: A S-PIN is a pincode which is required to trigger certain things like lock/unlock or climatisation. This is present for most cars (< 2022). If your car doesn’t have a S-PIN you can leave it empty on the install screen. Models like the new Audi E-tron or VW ID cars don’t require a S-PIN
Hi guys.
I have seen suggestions to implement Volkswagen We Connect (Well, I would like to see the entire VAG group of VW, Audi, Skoda, Seat) with Homey. But the requirement is quite old and I would like to think that at leasts Volkswagens GTE models are quite frequently used in Europe. And with the the all new ID3 and the upcoming ID4, I can really see a need for this integration.
I am actually a bit amazed that there are just two Homey owners that are requesting this app/integration. The ID3 aren’t maybe sold in that big numbers, yet, but still. You have the Passat GTE and Golf GTE that I guess are quite popular in Athoms home country.
I wouldn’t mind reaching out to him, but I know nothing about programming, so I don’t know what to say to him. Since he is a HA user, I don’t believe that he will be interested in developing a Homey app
Yes certainly @robertklep. I apparently put it in the wrong way. The comparison is a bit harsh though (rather fitting a Mercedes engine in a Volkswagen car). At least you don’t need to start from scratch I guess, the API is tested and working, the methods how to communicate shouldn’t diff too much. Right?
Your are correct. Seems that even VW have some issues to develop or maintain their app, so I guess we will need to wait until they get this sorted first.
