Last week, I made a valuable addition to my home appliances - a new Samsung washer and dryer combo. To my surprise, I discovered that the integration with Homey was not yet available. Both the washer and dryer function flawlessly with SmartThings, however, an integration for SmartThings was notably absent. I decided to take matters into my own hands and create one.
Presently Supported
All washer models compatible with SmartThings, encompassing Samsung as well as other brands.
Comprehensive support for all SmartThings-compatible dryers, which includes Samsung and other notable brands.
Official app published by homey
In the Pipeline
Add support for energy insight (Cancelled since most Samsung devices don’t have a powerMeter capability. Samsungs power rapportage doesn’t work within Homeys energy insigh system)
Add support for air conditioning
Add support for washer/dryer combination machines
Add support for setting and reading (first then cards) washing/drying program (bedding, eco, towels, coton etc…)
Frequently asked questions
I am changing my Air conditoning mode but it jumps back: Sadly Homey doesn’t provide a way to enable/disable the picker or to send a message to the user. When the air conditioning device is set “off” samsung is not willing to change the mode. Make sure the device is “on”!
The app is currently in the process of review before submission. In the interim, I’ll share some screenshots here for your convenience!
I would like to offer as much as possible. But I would also really like to encourage other people to contribute. I will also contact @Adrian_Rockall the expert when it comes to SmartThings.
For now I am just adding WHEN flowcards and showing sensors. I would add more functionality overtime following the needs.
I just finished Homeys feedback and a resubmission has been done.
How to get an Personal Access Token (PAT)
Here are the instructions of getting an personal access token.
Notes: Make sure that you do have a Samsung SmartThings account and that your devices are connected and visible within the SmartThings app(Standalone app of samsung itself not Homey).
Open the SmartThings token page: https://account.smartthings.com/tokens
If you are getting a login page, please login. You will automatically be redirected back to the tokens page. If you don’t have an account yet, please make sure to read the note above.
Press “Generate new token”
Choose a “Token Name” for instance: Homey
Make sure the following Authorization scopesare selected:
Devices
List all devices
See all devices
Custom Capabilites
Read custom one or all capabilities
Device Profiles
See all device profiles
Drivers
Read all drivers
Press “Generate Token”
Your token will now be displayed example: “f7212as2-f9dd-4f63-1238-329f5c1dc2cs”
Copy this token and put it in either the app settings or when the homey app is asking for it when adding your first device.
Right now no. Since o don’t have a device like that. I do want to add it but then i need access to such device. You could create an extra personal access token and share it with me in a private message. Then i am able to add support.
Hello there I have a question. I generated the token added it to the app but no devices rather than the washers and dryers. So my question is simple does the app support a full transparent connection between Homey (pro 23) and my lovely Smartthings hub? I have some aeotec devices on the Smartthings whom has more variables than when added to Homey (pro?)
Little joke there.
Thanks in advance
Kind Regards
Kees
A full transparent connection is impossible. Because I have to implement logic for every single device. Therefor this app wil grow and grow and support for devices will be added over time. (Airconditioning is almost done). That is also why I created the code opensource so other people can contribute.
I see that the support for air conditioning is in the changelog, but I can’t find icon to add air conditioner to my Homey Pro. Will be release later or it is a bug?
(you can change it on the top post)
