Hello everyone,  
I have developed an application to add Esphome devices to Homey Pro and released a test version.  
When adding an Esphome device, give the device a name, enter its IP address and Encryption Key information.

I hope you like the app and look forward to your feedback! I will try to respond to all requests as quickly as possible, but since I have a regular job, I will try to resolve issues as quickly as possible.

Congratulations! Is this [the official ESPHome app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-esphome-control-your-esp8266-esp32-by-simple-configuration-files/87271/161) that @Doekse has been talking about?

Thank you, I made this app myself. @Doekse, adding devices to the app he made was a bit more difficult. If there are any bugs in the first version, I will try to fix them over time.

@ugrbnk Thanks for the new app. My Konnected Garage Door Opener (GDO V2 White) running ESPhome 2025.12.7 was very easy to connect using the new app. Unfortunately it sees the device as a fan or something. What information can I supply to help troubleshoot the issue?

Hi @ugrbnk,

I"ve experimented with a presence sensor.  
It seems to connect well, the temperature and humidity entities are functional, but there it ends for now;  
The result seems to be part of a default or template device for a fan.

`Pro 2026 v12.11.0`  
`App v1.0.21`  
`ESPhome v2026.1.3`

H.A. ESP:

.  
I noticed you changed the app id from  
`com.esphome.homey`  
to  
`com.ugrbnk.esphome`  
but it’s not in the changelog. But maybe it’s not needed in the early versions.

@ugrbnk Testing v1.0.25. Progress for sure my friend but not there yet. I ran through the THEN cards and check what the door did and the ESPhome log. See crude test report below. This link to the Konnected GDO White API should help. Let me know what I can do here. Is there a better way to communicate?

@ugrbnk Test results for the v1.0.29 follows. I don’t have a yaml file using Homey. However, you the Konnected Yaml info between the Konnected link posted yesterday and the one below. Thanks again for taking on the ESPhome interface to Homey.

    then:
      - switch.turn_on: configmode
      - delay: 500ms
      - lambda: 'static_cast<LD2410 *>(ld2410)->queryParameters();'
      - delay: 500ms
      - switch.turn_off: configmode

  - id: clear_targets
    then:
      - lambda: |-
          //id(hasTarget).publish_state(0);
          //id(hasMovingTarget).publish_state(0);
          //id(hasStillTarget).publish_state(0);
          id(movingTargetDistance).publish_state(0);
          id(movingTargetEnergy).publish_state(0);
          id(stillTargetDistance).publish_state(0);
          id(stillTargetEnergy).publish_state(0);
          id(detectDistance).publish_state(0);

```

and below’s the entities what Home Assistant comes up with

- the `number` entities should be added to Homey as slider with these min - max values:
- 
  - max\_distance 0 - 6 / 2 digits

- 
  - motion\_hold 0 - 200 / 0 digits

- 
  - sensitivity\_thold 10 - 100 / 0 digits

```auto
binary_sensor.occupancy
button.restart_esp
number.max_distance (m)
number.motion_hold (s)
number.sensitivity_thold (%)
sensor.distance_detection (cm)
sensor.humidity (%)
sensor.illuminance (lux)
sensor.target_moving_distance (cm)
sensor.target_moving_energy (%)
sensor.target_still_distance (cm)
sensor.target_still_energy (%)
sensor.temperature (°C)
sensor.uptime_human (string)
switch.config_mode
switch.safe_mode
switch.show_target_stats

```

At the moment, this is what works, except for the dim capability

- Added as Esphome device:  

- Added as Multisensor:  

The dim capability errors with

Let me know if you need more info / testing.

Thanks!

Hello, I tried to provide support. I created a test driver for you. Add it with the general Esphome driver. If you report the problematic parts, I will do my best. Have a nice day.

Thank you.  
This is the result, all currently added capabilities work, except for signal\_strength; but that’s because my sensor hasn’t such an entity.

I used the general Esphome driver

They look like the same distance entity in Insights.

As a comparison, the H.A. graphs

After updating to v1.0.53 I can’t select the app anymore to add new devices.  
The app doesn’t seem to start

When I press “Restart” it shows:

Yes, I am aware of the issue. Currently, I believe there is a problem with the Homey App Store; it is not downloading the packages correctly.

This phenomenon occurred with an other app as well, it was solved by publishing/uploading the app version again.

Just FYI, the stable version installs without issues.

I’ve sent many new versions so far, but the same problem occurred with all of them. I’ll wait for the system to be fixed. It contains fixes for your presence sensor.
