Hello guys,
This topic can be used for support questions, feature suggestions and bug reports related to the Blueriiot Blue Connect Local app.
In contrary to the other community app, this app does not make use of the Blueriiot API, rather it uses local connectivity. This offers a number of benefits: you are no longer depending on the cloud for your measurements and you can take as many measurements as you want on the times you want.
In the current version the app only supports direct BLE connectivity from Homey. As this might be clumbersome for many people (including myself), I’m also working on a PoC of using an ESPHome device to work as a BLE proxy.
The app itself can be found in the Homey store on the following locations:
- Stable version: not yet available
- Test version: Blueriiot Blue Connect Local | Homey (use at own risk)
I’ve developed this app in a full open-source mindset, the source code is available under a GPL-license, meaning that everyone is allowed to use it provided that they release their source code under a GPL-compliant license. You can find the source code of the application in my GitLab repository at:
Any issues which are found in the app, or features which I’m still considering to be adopted, can be found in the GitLab issue tracker at:
Anyone is free to contribute towards the app, you can simply fork the repository on GitLab and create a merge request with your changes, I’ll review them and most likely include them as part of the app.
If you want, you can buy me a beer, or send me a donation using:
I really hope you enjoy the app, and any feedback is always welcome! I try to respond to all requests as soon as possible, but be aware that I have a regular job too, which might imply that sometimes it takes a bit longer then on other times.
Kind regards,
