Is Amber Pro app working with Homey Bridge? Or do we need to make another App for Homey Bridge on Homey Cloud?

@JJ.Jan  
For now it’s not possible.

Because of these 2 things:

- Amber Pro should be reachable via cloud. Because Local LAN is not possible.

- To get this App in to the store we should have a [verfied Homey Developer](https://homey.app/en-IE/store/product/homey_developer_athom_12m/) account. So that can be that Amber partners up with Homey. Or it should go via the app developer.
