Hi Peter,
I have the Danfoss Icon2 and needed to get the Ally for Smart Home usage.
However, as I see it you cannot add the Icon2 units to the Homey Pro yet.
I hope it will be available in the future.

Hei Setholm,
Thank you.

Hi Petter,
There’s still no Homey app that allows you to include the Danfoss Icon (neither the 1st gen, nor the 2nd gen), and it doesn’t matter whether you have the Ally Gateway or not. Several people have tried to make an app, but they just didn’t have the time to finish it or they gave up for (understandable) reasons.
Supposedly, there is a possibility though, but it requires additional hardware and I haven’t tested it myself. This solution works through a Home Assistant or Deconz hub.
However, since you don’t own a Homey yet, you may consider a Smart home that’s based on only Home Assistant. With its huge open source community, it’s being developed fast and you can find a lot of great information and ideas online (forums and YouTube).
Best regards,
Christiaan
This is excatly what I’ve done and the reason I set up an Home Assistant. But I only use HA to gain control of, in this example, Danfoss Icon2. I then add them to Homey and control them from there. Homey is much easier and intuative to use, so Homey is still my main smart home hub.
HA has come in handy in other instances afterwards, for devices thats not supported for Homey.
But for you @Petter_Gulbrandsen, that would mean you have to invest and setup both Homey and HA. That of course may be more than you bargained for.
Hello,
I also have a Danfoss Ally Icon2 controller for my floorheating.
Tried to connect to it from my HomeyPro, but it asked for a Tahoma Somfy account.
Requested this account on Somfy website, but the link in their email message didn’t work (dead end).
Is there any update by now how to connect Homey to the Danfoss Ally Icon2 controller?
Login account for Tahoma Somfy does work by now, but I still get this message when trying to connect to Danfoss Thermostat device from Homey (web version).
Any ideas why this message appears, and moreover: how to fix this??
would be great if the icon2 can used to control TVR’s the design is very nice so i want also one…
