Maybe the tadoZones app works for your device?

DON’T bother with Tado

The Receiver X creates it’s own Thread network inside the Tado app, which cannot join your existing Thread network, and it wreaks absolute havoc upon your existing Homey mesh.

Devices will drop off constantly; flows and automations will be delayed or could fail

It’s just another example of a business decision that forces people to use the brand app for subscriptions to access additional features, but at the expense of common sense and smart home stability.

Tado are appalling, just avoid them all together.

Tado does not require a subscription. I have been using a Tado V3 for years now and the Homey app works perfectly stable. They don’t charge anything for it, only for the advanced features like Geofencing and Open window detection, but you can do that from Homey itself as well so you don’t need the Tado subscription

Tado V3 doesn’t use Matter and isn’t compatible with Tado X, so this is not relevant at all in this thread, which is about Tado X

Tado literally put additional features behind a paywall on their app. They wouldn’t be able to keep people using their app for subscription based features, if the Receiver X was a Matter over Thread device, like the Thermostat X.

How is any of the above relevant to my points I am making about the Tado X Wireless Receiver creating it’s own Thread network, which cannot be bridged with Homey’s Thread network in any way?

Please try to keep to the topics at hand and contest the points I am making, which are not relevant to your own use cases, with a completely different product using different protocols.

One additional point to make about the new Tado X devices.

They do not expose any information to the Matter Dashboard in Homey Developer Tools

“This device does not support Thread Network Diagnostics.”

How can Matter over Thread devices, not support Thread Network Diagnostics?

We should not celebrate companies, who do not do business in the spirit of what Matter is supposed to stand for.

So the tadoº X thermostat has more features paywalled than the Tado V3? My tado V3 only has the useless “Care & Protect” (which didn’t detect any issues when the boiler was turned off for 7 days due to a fault) and “Energy IQ” (which is basically the same as Homey’s energy management features) paywalled.

Because you mentioned that “Tado forces a subscription” which is not true, you can still use the device in Homey using the Tado Homey app or tadoZones Homey app (if you want more features).
