I have been doing that for a while, only draw back is you can only control the tuya device via Alexa, but not get devices status changes from alexa to homey

Is it any better than using the [Tuya Cloud](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/com.tuya.cloud/Tuya-cloud/) app?

It’s just an extra point of failure.

There is a way to gather Tuya Encryption Key upon registration of the devices with the the cloud app, once you have that, you can communicate with the local API. Im not sure if this is something you’re interested in or not. It might help a developer find a way to make a community app until Homey gets Tuya to play ball.

So, we’re a few months further now. Just received an E-mail on changes to the Tuya developer platform.

Any developments in the official app? Or has Athom ceased doing efforts here?  
And otherwise any update in adopting the [https://homey.app/a/com.tuya.cloud/](https://homey.app/a/com.tuya.cloud/)?

The good old, no longer supported, Tuya app still works for me, controlling my heatpump.  
I fear the day that I have to re-install this app, which is not possible.

@Doekse  
Like Rudi I like to know if Athom is working, in the background, on a good deal with Tuya.

Go Doekse! This would still be a great addition to Homey.

I started looking into homey at the start of the year when the tuya was still working. Have tons of tuya devices so i thought this was a very good idea. Couple of months later i bought the homey pro without checking the forums to see that the app is not working anymore. Now i have a homey pro and lots of devices that are not supported. Even by the other tuya zigbee or tuya cloud apps ☹

I have them all working. Also with Tuya Zigbee.

Go to [Cube Private Cloud | Tuya Smart](https://www.tuya.com/solution/cube)

And push the

Hi !

I’m using Homey to control my AC, it works fine, but the reporting back flow card is not working, or works but delayed with several hours.

The flow card

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/9/09a8bec127b60bcfeb4e0cf68d4335c85bdff1f6.png)

The events are occuring on my Tuya IoT Device

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/b/e/be99eb2495513d947468a6fcb603cbd382366169.png)

But does not show up in my Homey, or if they do, it’s several hours late

Any thougths.

The action flowcards are working fine, I can control it, but need feedback from the AC to work with other flows.

Mine are still working absolutely fine tbh

Any devices which need a gateway hub are a bit pants though

The only really annoying part is having to restart the Tuya app if I have to turn off any power rings to install new devices.

It’s really poor that no one from Athom has had the courtesy to reply to you about this.

What did you end up doing in the end?

At this moment there aren’t any new updates. As always, I’ll share any news as soon as there’s something to share. We’ve reached out to the Tuya team multiple times over the past few months but haven’t received a response from their side. We’d love to have Tuya back on the platform, but that’s something that has to come from both sides.
