Will Broadlink app be upgraded to support Homey pro 2023 ?

Hi Remko, can we expect a working solution for the Homey Pro 2023? 🔜

I doubt, Remko is not active on this forum nor on [GitHUB](https://github.com/RWensveen/com.broadlink) (literally not at all). Another developer, who uploaded modified version to HCS was [Pieterv123](https://community.homey.app/u/Pieterv123) but based on another discussion he is not interested on maintaining it - [[APP][Pro] Broadlinkred App - #38 by Pieterv123](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-broadlinkred-app/36921/38) … but there was question from @Monique_Jilesen - [[APP][Pro] Broadlinkred App - #37 by Monique\_Jilesen](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-broadlinkred-app/36921/37) … so maybe “this is the way” ? 😉

I would suggest going for a Tuya cloud solution (15 euro device on Ali). Works better than the broadlink ever did and if you already use the Tuya cloud for devices it saves you an app 🙂

What kind of device do you mean? Does it have the same functionality like Broadlink?

I don’t know what functionalities you use but learning RF works like a charm for me.

Btw for those running HP2023 - finally after 4 years it seems that their IR implementation is working for me great - the database of devices is pretty huge, I recommend to test it for everyone who have been using Broadlink IR - for me it works even better then Broadlink.  
I’m surprised it’s not highlighted anywhere.  
(add device → Homey → IR) . When searching for device, have patience - eg. SON do not work but SONY does - you must search full name etc.

Indeed…but still I want to mention it as it was nice surprise. 🙂 And as Broadlink app is abandoned, it’s better then nothing, right 😉

You can use a Homey bridge as satellite. Then you can choose which device should be used for each IR or 433MHz signal you want to send.  
But a Broadlink or Tuya IR blaster is 4x cheaper.

Thanks for the info I had hoped I could stay on some of the old devices on Broadlink and just use it as a satellite until I could move over to newer devices all together as I have a lot of 433mhz of them

Hey Guys

Sorry if this has been asked - does anyone know if the broadlink app will be updated to support the new homey ?

No plans of an update I believe, I’d recommend switching to the Tuya IR/RF alternative

What if your device isn’t listed like my ceiling fan - I need to learn the ir code but I don’t think homey is capable unfortunately

Had a look at the Tuya integration looks complicated - be nice if someone would take on the BroadLink app

Trust me, it’s worth it (and not just for the RF/IR integration part)

The Tuya Cloud app is doable, but it is complicated stuff when you´re new to it.  
Also there’s no app developer/maintainer since last Januari…

Another option, although it is a bit more expensive, is a Switchbot hub. It can learn IR signals.

</div>

Will there be a update of this app for the Pro 2023?

I know the Pro has IR, but my RM3 Mini is in another room, so it still makes sense with an updated app.
