Anyone had the issue where you added a device to the Tuya app and then you try and add it in Homey and you get a quick screen saying “found a new device” but then “No device found” comes up and the device isn’t added.

I would like to start by thanking @Jurgen_Heine for his great work on this app, and I hope someone else at some point might be able to take over. I have never developed an app, and frankly wouldn’t even know where to start, so I don’t think it could be me.

With that said, because of the fact that @Jurgen_Heine built raw commands into the homey app, I have been able to use a device that is not on the list of devices yet.

I have created a advanced virtual device with all the characteristics of the device (in my case a CREATE fan, that included a Tuya / Smart Life controller) and use raw commands to update the virtual device when an update is received from the Tuya IoT platform and vice versa.

The raw commands / messages from Tuya to Homey all have the format  
DEVICE ID - COMMAND - VALUE OF THE COMMAND.

I am very happy with this, as before I was using controlled the fan with homey by going to IFTTT and then run a smart life scene, but I would not get an update if I would control the fan directly (with remote or smart life app)

If you would like to add you own device, you can see the structure, and data type of the command under device debugging in the Tuya IoT platform

I have a bug in the software for a thermostat that shows 230g instead of 23.0. Does anyone have any tips on how to fix this?

Tuya uses integer values as default. So it sends 230 as value.  
But the device should have a decimal factor defined (in Tuya developer page). Can you check if it’s defined there?

Hi. It’s seems like it’s just some Tuya products that can be integrated with homey. It would be nice with a list of usable products.

Here are products I have included with great success 🕶

Since today I got an error when I try to switch an wifi plug on or off. The error says “Missing Capability Listener on/off”. Any idea what’s wrong? I allready restarted the app and Homey, but that doesn’t help.

For the “it worked for months” issues:  
you’ll have to extend the “iot core” free trial period every half year. It’s on the https://iot.tuya.com/cloud site.

Hmmm. There is almost no restriction.

There’s no automation for that, I’ll suggest to spread the word and try to find someone yourself 😉🙃😉
