Oh i now see too, the initial release is no longer available.
Would it be available somewhere that at least is worth to try?

That didnāt work for me, alas
Doesnāt work also, because API key and secret are mandatory⦠![]()
I was looking for the test version also, but thereās no more test version in the store.
Letās see what the author comes up with. Until then Iāll control my lights manually, itās not the end of the world.
Itās unclear to me why there is a time-out on the settings page. There are no time-outs for setting page in my code, but if I understand correctly itās probably because the apps failing to start. This failing to start did occur also in 1.0.2 test version, but should have been resolved in 1.0.3 version. The new fields should be required for legacy only, but I just saw there is an bracket error in code which make the fields required also for legacy
When choosing legacy you only have to fill them with a letter, they are only used for official API. Remember that country code and business(Phone app) are also required.
The 1.0.4. version should already be in test channel. This version has Windows cover and PIR for official API.
Downloaded new 1.0.4 Still problem with timeout 30 sec. Then due this it seems like app is not able to save data in config. After adding login info it confirm saved ok⦠Then on reload it times out⦠and nothing saved. So still cant save config for some reason. Never had this issue before with apps. Other apps do not have this timeout in config. Hope there is a solution
Tested several times. The app demand both legacy and official login to be fillet. Canāt do that on phone in 30 sec. Then timeout⦠screen flicer/flash and itās not possible to save .
Also, after timeout Homey Pro apps is hanging/locked for long time. Have to quit app or change to another folder before being able to access any apps at all. Or wait for a min or so.
Keep up the good work, Thanks ![]()
Edit: Managed to type all info before timeout and save. Still it hamg/lock all apps and will not save config.
@Grim, please send diagnostic report. Without log I donāt know whatās wrong here. Something let the app crash during initialization which resulted in a paused app.

Received report, but no errors or other clues. For now I donāt know whatās wrong. Maybe you can uninstall the app and install again. I hope that the settings get cleared and that you can enter everything from scratch.
Same problem as Grim here after installing 1.0.4-test. Still paused, not able to save any configuration info, and mandatory API key/secret.
Uninstalled Tuya cloud, fixed broken flows caused by removal of Tuya cloud devices, reinstalled, still the same.
Well, @Jurgen_Heine and @Grim I got it working again ![]()
What I did:
Step 7 and 8 might be skippable. I think:
Does this point you somewhere @Jurgen_Heine ?
Reason it looks ok is that itās only reporting a clean install with no config. If i try config the app freeze and itās not possible to create an diagnostic. I guess if i had not removed it, i would be able to use smart life via homey. Just not able to add new ones. Hope you find the problem
remove, reboot mobile, install again didnāt help. Until its fixed i will use Google then add to homey.
New version in test channel with possible fix for pause app
Hi Jurgen, PIR and Blinds install well @ v1.0.4. Cool! But there is an error with both types: āDevice cannot be foundā āstateArr is not definedā.
Diag:
No hurries and thanks for the app update!
Going to install v1.0.5 now
Maybe try again with 1.0.6, found issue with your report. It was small error which could be quickly fixed and code was still open.

There is a new version in test with fixes for Windows cover and PIR.
Please switch your devices to new official API!!! Old API devices will be set to depricated when official windows cover is working properly. After that, itās not possible anymore to add new legacy devices, existing legacy devices will remain working.
@Grim, your log is showing legacy API time-out errors. You have to wait 25 minutes now between attemps, changing settings in this time is pointless. Those are the time-outs of the legacy Tuya API, nothing I can do about. This is one of main reason for adding new official API.
This version will be releases to stable asap when there are no errors for time-out, windows cover and PIR.
Battery status of PIRās works now, and screens / blinds work fine too!
Thanks for the quick fix, Jurgen.
With positioning possibility ![]()

Transitioning my devices to the new API, which seems to work ok.
Shame that the direction control of curtains is gone and only position support is left, so no āopenā command. Only go to 0%⦠But I guess this is a limitation of the new API.
But because of this I do miss some of my (older) curtain switches which only have direction control and no position control. They do not show up as switches nor as curtains. They still work with the legacy api, but the new api doesnāt recognize them. Any ideas?
Where do i create a api access and ID. Since that is demanded⦠itās prolly why it donāt work. Never needed that before
alwasy just used same legacy login as Smart Life.
