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 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.
Already exists: Tuya App for Homey | Homey
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/?

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.

Like Rudi I like to know if Athom is working, in the background, on a good deal with Tuya.
We are! But it is proving to be difficult difficult lemon difficult.

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
