[APP] Reolink

v1.1.4

  • Replaced async getCapabilityValue() checks with a synchronous in-memory activeAlarms set to track alarm state. This prevents race conditions where rapid ONVIF events could cause missed state changes for motion, AI detection, and doorbell alarms.

v1.1.3

  • Improved the ability logic and simplified capability detection for older models

v1.1.2

  • Added automatic ONVIF reconnection on timeout, the device now re-establishes the event subscription when the connection drops, preventing silent loss of motion/AI events

Hello @Koktail My E1 Pro is not detect while my other Reolink cameras work OK.
Hardware version is IPC_513SD5.
Any clue?

Hoi allemaal,

Ik probeer mijn Reolink deurbel te koppelen aan Homey, maar ik loop vast op de beschikbare Flow-kaarten. Ik zie in een eerdere post dat sommige kaarten (zoals ā€œingeschakeld voor x secondenā€) automatisch gegenereerd worden door Homey maar niet daadwerkelijk functioneren.

Mijn vraag is: Welke kaart uit de Reolink app moet ik specifiek gebruiken om een actie te triggeren wanneer er daadwerkelijk op de bel gedrukt wordt?

Ik hoor graag welke kaart bij jullie betrouwbaar werkt voor het fysieke aanbellen. Alvast bedankt!

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to set up my Reolink Video Doorbell with Homey, but I’m a bit confused by the available Flow cards. I’ve noticed that some cards (like ā€œturned on for x secondsā€) seem to be auto-generated by Homey and might not actually work, as discussed in some older forum posts.

Could anyone clarify which specific trigger card I should use to start a flow when the doorbell button is actually pressed?

I am using a [vul hier je type Homey in, bijv. Homey Pro 2023] and the [official/community] Reolink app.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Koktail,

Sorry for my late reply, but my dog ​​passed away and my mind is elsewhere right now.

I deactivated all flows. Then I created a simple new flow: If Camera 1 detects a person for 2 seconds, it should send me a push notification with a screenshot. The same error occurs here. I receive many push notifications, but 90% are without a person. It’s probably just motion detection or something similar.

The error only started after the Homey - Reolink app update. Everything worked fine until then.


The following second error is still present: There’s a contact sensor on a patio door. When it’s activated, by opening or closing the door, a push notification with a screenshot from Camera 1 is sent.

I used to have a flow that involved this contact sensor, but that flow no longer exists. The contact sensor isn’t currently included in any other flow either. However, the error/malfunction is easily triggered: I open the door, and then I immediately receive a push notification with a screenshot from Camera 1.

I’m at a loss.

Maybe it lacks a web server like my particular E1 Pro version, see quoted post below. This seems to make it ā€œunfindableā€ by the Reo app.
It works fine with the Onvif Camera app however.

Hello. I don’t understand. Why isn’t the app working again? I haven’t changed anything. Even a very simple flow isn’t working.
