It would be absolutely great if you are able to implement support for ESPHome Bluetooth proxies as well! I realize it might take some architectural changes to make it work, but given the rather underwhelming BLE range of Homey, it would be incredibly helpful. 🙂 ---

Hello, just seen those messages, and discovered the problem through an issue opened on the github. That useless breaking change impact device migrated to 2025.10+. If I upgrade the app to use the latest native api version, users whom didn’t migrate will lose their connection. Only solution would be to support both version of the api, but it’s a big change I cannot handle (I’m not using Homey anymore). As for the “maybe to come” official ESPHome version, wait and see, … dynamic select is not supported by Homey, maybe they will finaly fix that … I’m affraid the official version will not include the “wizard” I designed ---

Slowly I’m moving my smart home over from assistant to Homey. One thing Im struggling with is my Smart doorbell from Zuidwijk. It’s connect using the ESPHome app but there is not a real entity that suits it. For now I have it added as a contact sensor, this works but in a flow the tigger is is with a minimum duration of 1 sec. This would mean that the doorbell should be pressed for 1 sec, this can work but not can be trick The option _button_ is not working, adding a general device makes it also a contact sensor. ---

(un)fortunately I’m using the other ESPHome app. but I managed to fix it! In the yaml I added a template binary sensor (“Doorbell Event”) that uses `binary_sensor.template.publish` to push directly to Homey on every press, ensuring short presses are detected. ---

Great news, don’t want to put pressure and won’t hold you to it, but is it something that homey might be aiming at having available in the next 6 months or more longer term like 6+ months? Cheers.
