# RuuviTag
This app adds support for RuuviTag Bluetooth Sensor
## About RuuviTag
RuuviTag is an advanced open-source sensor beacon platform designed to fulfill the needs of business customers, developers, makers, students, and can even be used in your home and as part of your personal endeavours. See [https://ruuvi.com/](https://ruuvi.com/) fore more information.
## RuuviTag driver
This apps allows integration of RuuviTag (RAWv1 and RAWv2 format) in Homey, allowing to monitor :
- Temperature
- Humidity
- Pressure
- Acceleration
- Battery (min and max voltage can be changed in device settings)
- RSSI
- Movement (RAWv2 only) - movement rate can be configured in device settings, and completely disabled
- Entering/leaving range : it can be used as a BLE beacon, triggering an event when the device enters or leaves the range. The number of attempts scan can be configured per device in device settings.
Scan duration (how long homey listens for BLE advertisment) and polling interval (how long between two scans) can be configured in app settings.

I did not do a proper range test. From one side of the house to the other, or from the garden I have no reception problem. I would say that the max distance is around 15m, may be more, but it depends on many factors (noise,wall, etc.).
Ruuvi has a FAQ about range : [https://github.com/ruuvi/ruuvitag\_fw/wiki/FAQ:-range:-Bluetooth](https://github.com/ruuvi/ruuvitag_fw/wiki/FAQ:-range:-Bluetooth)

It’s in the app preferences. At the bottom right in homey main windows, choose the 3 dots. Then parameters, and at the bottom of the list you can see apps parameters.
If you choose Ruuvitag, you can enable it with the checkbox

Thanks, I found it. Now, where would I change the settings for the station?

On your device ; for example if you use Ruuvi Station :
in gateway settings, use :
- http://\/api/app/com.thomashoussin.ruuvitag for local access only
- https://.connect.athom.com/api/app/com.thomashoussin.ruuvitag (cloudId can be found on [Homey Developer](http://developer.athom.com/tools/system))

I’m using Ruuvi Station on iOS. I got only App Settings, and Sensor Settings but **no** Gateway Settings. Am I just blind or looking at the wrong place?

It’s on the main window, the three lines on the top left (NOT the sensor settings), where you can setup background scanning, etc.

not sure this is in the released iOS app yet – at least I can’t find it. (maybe in the beta version)

I had to change how it works with SDKv3 ; in new version the option is gone, gateway is public by default.

@Ethaniael I obeserved the movement alarm is triggered erratically in Homey. Even if there are none (I checked) I get 10 or more in a row. Not sure where these artefacts are coming from

Hello,
Thank you very much for the app. However, I am not sure how to use homey as a gateway for ruuvistation. I have added ruuvitags locally to homey but when adding the gateway to the android app I just can’t get the any readings. Have I missed something on the setup?

RuuviTag no longer works. Is it because of some update?

I have one tag that I connected to Homey a year ago, without any problems. Got another one today but it is not discovered and the process just times out. Any ideas how to fix this?
No gateway.

Hi,
It seems that local nor external access to the app api in HomeyOS 10.0.0 to feed the data from a RuuviGW are somehow different. And wont’t work as described.
For the external URL [https://IDHERE.connect.athom.com/api/app/com.thomashoussin.ruuvitag](https://IDHERE.connect.athom.com/api/app/com.thomashoussin.ruuvitag) , the response is
`Cannot GET /api/app/com.thomashoussin.ruuvitag`
And same goes for local network access.

Hi,
Does somebody know if the Ruuvi Tag PRO works also with Homey ?
