Wow big thanks! Works like a charm with my 3 Hikvision camera’s! It would be great to add one more feature: when the camera detects motion, the status indicator on the Homey tile should light up blue.
That’s awesome. Thank you. I’ve paired the app with my Hikvision NVR and cameras.
I also wasn’t aware that there was a new Hikvision app in testing. Separately I’ve been writing one, intending to submit it for review. It’s unfortunate that three of us have been independently developing the same thing. Thank you both for your effort in building (and finishing) these!
I’ve also another couple of apps in development. I guess it’s worth posting on the forum beforehand to make sure I’m not duplicating something that already exists.
Well if the app of @Pierre_V can be the official one, my app can be deleted. Just let me know when.
Hi door station is working, is it possible to add a bell button so I can maken a flow when the doorbell is pushed I get a notification?
Many thanks for creating this app!
Really appreciated

Do i have to use my admin login or can I make a user login?
Thanks again to both of you for your hard work writing these apps.
Has anybody had success getting flows to trigger reliably, using either app? My cameras are connected to an NVR (DS7608 NXI I2/S) and I’m having difficulties. I’ve tried intrusion and line crossing. I’ve also tried updating my NVR to the latest firmware. I can’t get it to work on either app, but for different reasons.
Pierre’s app - I cannot get flows to trigger at all. I’ve turned the device on/off, but this just seems to alter “connectivity alarm”.
Brian’s app - I can get the intrusion start flow to trigger once. But the intrusion end event never triggers. So the intrusion start event never triggers ever again, presumably because it thinks the event never ended. Same for line crossing - starts but doesn’t end. If I delete the app and reinstall it then it triggers exactly once.
You can create a separate login, and this is probably advised. The homey user only needs to be an operator, not an admin.
I created a flow with the intrusion trigger but it doesn’t work at all.
Positive thing is the app doesn’t crash after opening the doorstation in Homey pro 2026
You can use an user account.
I will take a look at it. But we only need one good app, so if it works well with the other app, then we don’t need my app
