New community app to control De’Longhi Pinguino portable air conditioners from Homey.
Version 0.1.0 is live for test:
> **[De'Longhi Pinguino | Homey](https://homey.app/en-gb/app/com.delonghi.pinguino-cloud/De'Longhi-Pinguino/test/)**
>
> Portable cooling that follows your routines.
It uses the same De’Longhi Comfort cloud account as the official mobile app. Based on the Home Assistant integration. [philm5/delonghi-comfort-integration](https://github.com/philm5/delonghi-comfort-integration/tree/main)
Tested so far with:
- De’Longhi Pinguino PAC EX130 CST
Pairing
1. Homey app → Devices → Add device → De’Longhi Pinguino
2. Log in with the same De’Longhi Comfort account used by the official mobile app
3. Select your Pinguino device from the cloud account
Current test features
- On/off
- Target temperature
- Cool / dry / fan-only mode
- Fan speed
- Room temperature and humidity
- Silent mode
- Experimental swing control
Notes
- This is cloud-based. It depends on the De’Longhi/Ayla cloud being available.
- Swing may need feedback from different models.
- This is not an official De’Longhi app and I take no responsability in any issue encountered.
Feedback wanted
If you test it, please share:
- Your exact Pinguino model
- Whether pairing works
- Which controls work or fail
- Whether swing moves the physical flap
**Note**
This app is partially vibe-coded. If that’s an issue for you (code quality/process/compliance expectations), please don’t use it.

Thank you very much for your effort providing this app. I badly missed it.
As I use the same.e model as you (PAC EX130 CST WIFI), no wonder everything works fine.
Also Stop & Go for the swing works
Haven’t used it yet in any flow, but that shouldn’t be an issue either.
Thanks

Great !
Personnaly I use it on a flow that manage my Roller shutter (based on hours) and use a \>50% opened threshold to turn it on/off. My specialty was to forget to turn it off at night with the shutter closed, very efficient…

Ok, now I understand your intention regarding the shutter.
To be honest, I never took care in which position the shutter remains when Pinguino is shut off.
… but a good idea.
Will test it in Flows and let you know

Hi
Just tried to add a “close the shutter” to my flow, but there isn’t an option for it.
Did I misunderstand you?
Edit:
Now I got it. It closes automatically when shutting down Pinguino.

Why is there a pause of 2 or 3 minutes afzer shutdown before I am able to switch Pinguino on again.?

Roller shutter \> I mean on my window, not the flap on the Pinguino.
There is a warning in the device manual about not turning it off and on again too fast, as it has to complete a few clean up & check processes, as well as not damaging the compressor (technical rule for such compressors is usually a 3 to 5 minutes delay betwen cycles). As a security, and not to be accused of doing any thing wrong, I enforced it to 3 minutes. You can still turn it on manually, but that’s not my problem anymore 😃

Thanks for explanation.
