Hello.

Just wondering if anyone out there has any idea about the possibility of connecting Homey to Balboa’s “ControlMySpa” application? Balboa’s own app leaves quite a lot to wish for and it would be lovely to be able to control the spa bath through the Homey app. Seems like someone has done it for Home Assistant but can’t really find anything for Homey?

Thanks for any ideas on this one🙏

Kind Regards,  
Martin

There’s a Node.JS module: [Victor Vlasák / ControlMySpaJs · GitLab](https://gitlab.com/VVlasy/controlmyspajs)

So all you need is a developer to write an app for it.

Thanks Robert!

Not being a developer myself - do you think this would be a relatively straightforward work?

The module looks relatively straightforward, so shouldn’t be too difficult.

Sounds promising so far… any idea of a skilled and willing developer to contact?😀

Thanks for the offer!

Might definitely be of Interest. How would we proceed from here, in that case? I know a few developers but a ’Homey app expert’ doesn’t sound bad at all😀

@Mart_76 I need some credentials to test the integration.  
Not sure if you can share the device with other people (lots of smart home apps do that).

In that way I can check the data and start working on the app.

Then I’ll create a first version and you will be able to test it out 🙂

Edit: ofcourse if you want to share any account details let’s do that in a DM
