Presence Fusion — combine several devices into Homey’s native user presence
Presence Fusion automatically drives Homey’s native presence from several devices (phone / Smart Presence, Beacon, Nut, etc.).
The goal: fewer false home / false away events when a single source is flaky. It replaces a custom Flow to combine multiple devices — link your sources, Fusion writes Homey presence, and your presence-based automations keep working.
App Store
What it does
-
Merges multiple sources into
user.present(Homey native presence) -
Settings: automatically lists Homey users — enable a person, link devices, set mode and delays
-
OR / AND / quorum modes + confirmation delays (home / away)
-
Presence overview widget — who’s home and since when, each linked source detected or not, + optional Auto / Home / Away force
-
UI in English and French
Setup (a few minutes)
-
Install the app (Homey Pro)
-
Create a Homey API key with Presence (required — apps cannot write presence otherwise)
-
Apps → Presence Fusion → Configure → API key tab → paste → Save
-
Enable a person, link devices, set mode / delays
-
(Optional) Add the Presence overview widget to a dashboard
API key:
-
my.homey.app → Settings → API Keys → New API Key
-
Check Presence (
homey.presence) -
Copy the key (shown once)
-
Paste it in the app
Avoid conflicts
For each managed person:
-
turn off Homey location-based presence
-
don’t use other Flows / apps that also force home/away
Otherwise they conflict and presence becomes unreliable.
Usage ideas
-
Phone Wi‑Fi + Beacon / Nut for more reliable presence than one source alone
-
OR mode: as soon as one source sees the person → home (responsive)
-
AND / quorum: require several sources before switching (fewer false homes)
-
Longer away confirmation delay to reduce flapping
-
Widget: who’s home, since when, which sources are detected
-
Force Home / Away from the widget when a source misbehaves, then return to Auto
-
Several Homey people: each profile with its own sources and rules
