I want to add that this plugin works foor Maxicool airconditioning. To get the correct tokens. I had to use this python plugin and command. midea-beautiful-air-cli.exe discover --account “XXXXX@gmail.com” --password “XXXXX” --credentials The login method with user and password doesn’t work but with tokens it was a success. Thanks for the app. ---

Thank you for your work! I have 4 Midea ACs that I can control via Home Assistant without any issues. In Homey with your app however I could only add 1 of them. Could you please advise how to add the remaining 3 to Homey directly? ---

Hi there, Today my Midea U-Shaped window unit went offline in the Homey App, and it suggested to remove and readd it (I skipped the screens prompting for the keys/creds I didn’t have). Now I cannot readd the AC unit, as it is not found when scanning, and there is no manual add option. I have reset the device, everything is on the same network, I have removed and readded it in all of the manufacturer smart home apps (which all work fine), and msmart-ng discover produces this: INFO:msmart.cli:Discovering all devices on local network. ERROR:msmart.cli:No devices found. Nice app but a bit of a hiccup here. Please help. ![WhatsApp Image 2026-04-24 at 5.59.30 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/4/24151420befd9380c6311ba188b1bfe3b15ec22e.jpeg) ---

There is a PR open that targets several of the Midea pairing/runtime issues discussed here: > > > \## Summary > > This PR makes Midea/Toshiba-style AC pairing and control local-first…, with automatic recovery when LAN sessions expire or a device IP changes. It also replaces the single-device broadcast-only pairing path with a validated multi-device discovery flow that can work on routed local networks. > > The user-facing goal is to reduce the need for repair/re-pair actions: > > \- pairing validates that a discovered candidate is actually addable before showing it as a normal device > \- multiple validated AC units can be selected and added from one pairing run > \- manual "Search another network" accepts an IP-like network hint such as \`192.0.2.0\` and scans the full last-octet range for that network > \- token/key and cloud-login pairing flows reuse the same validation path and return initial capability values > \- runtime polling/control refreshes LAN state safely, resets timed-out sessions, and tries rediscovery before marking the device unavailable > \- static capabilities are no longer re-derived during runtime polling > > \## Why this is a larger PR > > Several reported symptoms share the same root cause: discovery, validation, Homey device identity, LAN authentication, capability setup, and runtime state refresh were tightly coupled. Fixing only one of those paths still leaves users with devices that can be discovered but not added, added but not controllable, or temporarily working until the LAN session or IP changes. > > This is still one logical change: make the AC driver local-first and self-healing across pairing, polling, Flow conditions, and control. > > \## User impact > > \- Devices on routed local networks can be found without needing global broadcast to work. > \- Already paired devices are recognized by stable identifiers instead of mutable host/port data. > \- Pairing distinguishes validated devices from candidates that responded but could not be authenticated. > \- Failed candidates now show an actionable route to the token/key or cloud-login fallback instead of appearing silently broken. > \- Newly added devices start with populated Homey capability values instead of empty state. > \- Existing devices can recover from an expired LAN socket/session by reconnecting and refreshing state. > \- Existing devices can recover when the same unit appears at a new IP by rediscovering and updating stored host/port. > \- Control actions and Flow conditions use the same serialized fresh-state LAN path, reducing stale writes and silent Flow mismatches. > \- Temperature values keep decimal precision where supported, inside/current/outside readings are separated, and unsupported/outdoor placeholder values are not surfaced as real readings. > \- Capability controls stay stable after pairing, so normal polling only updates state instead of reshaping the device UI. > > \## Main changes > > \- Added \`drivers/airco/capabilities.ts\` for conservative static capability definitions and capability value filtering. > \- Added \`drivers/airco/discovery-targets.ts\` for explicit discovery target parsing. > \- Reworked \`drivers/airco/driver.ts\` pairing discovery around validated candidates, stable Homey identity, token/key fallback, and rediscovery. > \- Reworked \`drivers/airco/device.ts\` runtime LAN operations so polling and control use serialized fresh-state operations with timeout cleanup. > \- Added a minimal discovery pairing view that shows validated devices first and failed candidates separately. > \- Added initial \`capabilitiesValues\` during pairing so Homey receives the first known state immediately after add. > \- Kept host/port as mutable store fields for new devices, while preserving fallback support for older devices that already have host/port in \`data\`. > > \## Review guide > > Suggested review order: > > 1. \`drivers/airco/capabilities.ts\` > 2. \`drivers/airco/discovery-targets.ts\` > 3. pairing path in \`drivers/airco/driver.ts\` > 4. runtime path in \`drivers/airco/device.ts\` > 5. pairing UI/locales > > \## Related reports > > Auto-closes the reports that match this PR's main discovery/runtime reliability path: > > \- Fixes #9: multi-device discovery/pairing can miss additional AC units. > \- Fixes #13: devices become unreachable and may need repair/restart. > \- Fixes #18: devices can become unavailable after running for a while. > > Related to reports that may still need device-specific confirmation or credentials/token follow-up: > > \- Related to \[#1 - Not possible to add devices\](https://github.com/mteutelink/nl.intyme.midea/issues/1): discovery does not find devices reliably and users need a less technical manual add path. > \- Related to \[#5 - devices are in homey but not reachable\](https://github.com/mteutelink/nl.intyme.midea/issues/5): devices can be present in Homey but still fail at runtime. > \- Related to \[#17 - Midea Extreme - MSAG-18HRN1 Homey problem\](https://github.com/mteutelink/nl.intyme.midea/issues/17): token/key pairing can fail on some Midea-compatible setups. > > \## Validation > > Ran locally against this branch: > > \- \`bun run build\` > \- \`bun run lint\` > \- \`bunx --bun homey app build\` > > Also validated locally on a Homey Self-Hosted Server installation with two AC devices: > > \- direct LAN state polling > \- control path requiring fresh state before \`SetStateCommand\` > \- LAN session timeout recovery > \- rediscovery/update of mutable host/port > \- pairing output with non-empty initial \`capabilitiesValues\` > \- no duplicate Homey identity for the same AC when host/port changes > > The Homey build still emits existing future warnings about missing \`titleFormatted\` on some Flow cards; this PR does not change those Flow-card titles. > > \## Privacy / public PR notes > > \- No local network addresses, hostnames, databases, backups, or secrets are included. > \- Local-only verification helpers are ignored and excluded from production build output. > \- \`package-lock.json\` only contains root metadata churn from the local package manager; no dependency version changes are intended. It changes the pairing flow to validate devices before adding, supports adding multiple validated AC units, adds an explicit “search another network” path for cases where broadcast discovery does not work, and makes runtime LAN polling/control recover from expired sessions or changed device IPs. It is not merged yet, so this is not an official release announcement, but it should address the “only one device”, “device unavailable/unreachable”, and “found but cannot add” class of problems once reviewed and released. ---

Hi! I wanted to try out Homey and got a Porta Split recently. No matter what I do, i always get: No Device Found. Theres not request to Login or Enter some token. Its just Add → Midea → AirConditioner → Connect → No Device Found As I’m new to Homey, maybe I do something wrong. I have the SmartHome App installed and the PortaSplit is connected there. Any ideas? Thank you! ---

Hello! Big thanks for this App integration. Everything works fine for me. I have Porta Split. I was wondering, is it possible to set the device on ionizing mode? Is it possible to choose a specific fan speed in %, for example 8%? Both of those I can do with the SmartHome app but I am not able to through homey pro flows. ---

The app is working great and really happy with the integration. Using it with the Midea PortaSplit heat & Cool I do have some feedback/feature requests: 1. The SmartHome app shows the energy usage of the unit it would be amazing if the homey app could expose this information too so the airco will show up in the [homey energy dashboard](https://apps.developer.homey.app/the-basics/devices/energy). ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/6/7658dcb025ba6b8517b2b92ea234eecfe79d2ed3.png) 1. The unit has a special I-Sense mode that will use the temperature sensor in the remote. Is there anyway this can be exposed/toggled in the homey app? 2. In the swing options I also see a horizontal swing that the unit does not support I think. Hopefully you find some time to take a look at these points that would make me really happy! ---

Hello I just tried to add my new Porta Splint to Homey. The device is detected, but then I get the error message shown in the image. I’ve already restarted the app once. I have a Homey Pro 2023 running version 13.3.0-rc.16. What can I try? ![IMG_0979](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/4/7491488fdc1ee073ceb1580f9d70f818c6368a3f.png) ---

I just added a Midea Portasplit myself, and I thought I had to login with my own credentials at first, but I ended up force closing the Homey app to reset everything and then I did the following: 1 - I opened the SmartHome app as per the Midea manual and added the device there, during that process I was asked to enter wifi name (ssid) and password. (Without this, the Homey Midea app couldn’t find the device) 2 - Once added in SmartHome, I opened Homey again. 3 - Pressed the plus button and added a new device using the Homey Midea app. 4 - Didn’t enter key/token, just left them blank. 5 - Used the prefilled login details instead of adding my own. 6 - Key and token was then retrieved and filled in, so from then on it was next next next​😊 Hope it helps! ---

Hi Swedownhill, Thank you very much for your feedback and help.👍🏼 I tried all of that a few times, but it never worked! So I asked Claude AI, and he suggested I use the NetHome Plus app instead of the iOS SmartHome app from Midea. It worked perfectly with that app.💁🏻‍♂️ ---

That’s great to hear! 🙏😊 By the way: I recieved my Midea Portasplit yesterday and this morning when I woke up there was a notification from the Smarthome app that there is a firmware update available for the device. Not sure what it does, it takes a while to update and the device need to be inactive during that process so I’ll probably do it tonight. Just wanted to share that info in case the Nethome Plus app does not notify you about it. ---

I have both apps running. But I’d rather just have the SmartHome app—it just doesn’t seem to work for me. Have you ever created a NetHome-Plus account? My firmware is shown in the picture. Do you have the same version? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/8/18d1513330988463bba78a435e8f570c2b46f5e5.png) ---

Hi! I didn’t create a nethome account, I just pressed continue and signed in using the pre filled details that was shown in the Midea Homey app when I got to that step. I have the following version. The only difference I can see is that mine says 5006 instead of 5000 on yours. Edit: I turned on automatic updates in the smarthome app when I got the notification this morning, and the device updated itself shortly after so the image shows the version after the update. I never thought about checking it before that so I don’t know what version it had yesterday when I connected the unit to both Smarthome app and Homey. ![1000001874](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/0/20e3f52220f96b93a781037385969dc03eac3458.png) ---

After using the app for a few days, I think it’s great, so thank you for taking the time and effort to make it 😀. There are a couple of functions that are visible in the Smarthome app that are not available in the Midea Homey app. Not sure if they can be implemented but I wanted to mention them as a request if they do. All of these are for the Midea PortaSplit specifically: 1 - There is a toggle to make the outside unit extra silent. It would be great to trigger this from a flow, for example when time is after 22.00/10PM. 2 - The Smarthome app can control the fan speed with a slider between 1% and 100%. The app seems to only have 20% increments (20, 40, 60, 80, 100, and Auto). 3 - There is a toggle in the Smarthome app to clean the inside unit and prevent bacteria from growing. Not sure what it does to prevent this, but it seems like a good idea to do from time to time.
