Hello looking to see if anyone has made any integrations with Dreo. Specifalily Dreo Smart Wall Heater DR-HSH017S and Dreo Smart Wall Heater DR-HSH009S They are wifi based and would like to link them to my homey pro. they have a ton of fans and other products
The quickest way to check whether a device is supported is to search the app store. If you canāt find the specific device, have a look for the brand of device you are looking for.
If no app is found, you can make a request to Athom or the Homey Community to add support. See [Requests] Official Homey App and Device Request for ways of doing that.
No support yet but would love to integrate my Dreo fan.
Same here would love to be able to control them through Homey.
EDIT: There is this for Home Assistant but would hope a Homey developer could do something with it; GitHub - JeffSteinbok/hass-dreo: Dreo Smart Device Integration for Home Assistant
Maybe you can add it to the Athomās official request list at Request a Brand | Homey. I donāt see an existing request related to Dreo devices.
I have two Dreo fans and would love support for this from Homey. However in the meantime I figured that using a virtual switch would allow me to control it using Google Home as a bridge.
How I Got Dreo Fans Working with Homey Pro ā The Clean Virtual Switch Workaround ![]()
If youāre using a Dreo smart fan and feeling limited by the lack of native Homey Pro support, hereās a simple and effective workaround using Google Assistant + one Virtual Switch.
What You Need:
Dreo fan connected to Google Home
Homey Pro
Virtual Devices app in Homey
Google Assistant with Routines enabled
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Create a Virtual Switch in Homey
Open Homey app ā Devices ā Add device ā Search for Virtual Devices
Add a virtual switch and name it simply: āFanā
This will be your master control for both ON and OFF actions
- Link Homey to Google Home
In the Google Home app:
Go to Settings ā Works with Google ā Link Homey
Once linked, your virtual switch āFanā will appear in Google Home as a controllable device
- Create Two Google Routines
Routine 1: Fan ON
Trigger: When āFanā is turned on
Action: Say or add action ā āTurn on [your Dreo fanās name]ā
Routine 2: Fan OFF
Trigger: When āFanā is turned off
Action: Say or add action ā āTurn off [your Dreo fanās name]ā
What This Enables:
Now, you can build Flows in Homey to trigger the āFanā virtual switch based on:
Time
Temperature
Presence
Itās a clean, simple workaround that uses Google Assistant as the bridge. Of course, this only offers basic on and off functionality
This I can see would also work for many other devices that are not natively supported by homey
I had added it before donāt know why it wasnāt showing just added it again
Weird still comes up āThere are no ideas matching dreoā when checking on https://request-a-brand.homey.app/.
Iāll try adding it as well.
Edit; mine is up now; Dreo | Homey so please comment etc there ![]()
Maybe requests are saved only when you are logged in to the site?
Iāve tried that way also and didnāt work. But we now have a request up go and comment on it so we can get attention ![]()
I also couldnāt find it with search had to click on @Patrick_Dankers link above
Hi all! Just a quick update: Iāve seen your requests and wanted to share where things stand.
Iāve been trying to get in touch with the Dreo team ever since CES back in January, but so far without much luck. In the meantime, I came across a Homebridge integration someone made using TypeScript and a bit of reverse engineering.
Since Iām almost done with my Whisker app and looking for a new project, I might give it a shot and see if I can turn that into a proper Homey app. Iāll do some research first before committing though.
Iāll keep you all posted! ![]()
No I meant searching for dreo to see the all ready requested ones. Thanks I know that link already.
Hey thatās great to hear thanks looking forward to seeing what can be done thanks in advance for looking into it
Strange indeed. Like you, when I search for āDreoā in the search bar I get no hits. It does not matter whether I am logged in or not. Only the direct link works
.
Every request is hidden by default. Since we get thousands of them, leaving them all visible would quickly become messy. In the backend, we consolidate similar requests and mark them as āvisibleā once enough interest has come in, typically around the time weāve contacted the brand ![]()
When two people request Dreo, we merge those requests on our end and mark it as visible once we take action.
Good to know, Abe. Until now I presumed āwhen it doesnāt show up in the search results @ request-a-brand, it wasnāt requested yet.ā
I get the idea of not showing every individual request, but as long as a brand doesnāt show up as already requested, continue requesting a brand is the way to go anyway?
Yes, as they will simply keep accumulating
Got it! Is a āDotanā protection in place
?
I did some digging and found that the Dreo team has been working on an official Home Assistant integration, along with Python libraries that handle authentication. Iāve already started porting the authentication logic to JavaScript, but Iām currently running into 401 Invalid authentication credentials errors. Itās unclear whether this is due to incorrect credentials or a region mismatch on my account. Iāve reached out to their development team to clarify.
[Update] Also tested another account I created for the US region and there it does work but it says Wrong account or password
