Hey I’m quite new to the homey ecosystem. I’m not sure if it’s me adding the switch wrong to the homey or if I lost a function when migrating from HomeKit to homey. When I had the switch in the home app I could dim the lights that are connected to it, but that function seems unavailable on homey? I’m pretty sure added the correct switch, just can’t figure this one out

Is it added as an “Unknown ZigBee device”? That means the device isn’t supported by the Aqara app.

And also, it’s better to ask app-specific questions in the app topic:

Hey Sven, nope it’s installed via the Aqara app as the correct switch, the wired H1 wall switch with neutral. But it just won’t give me a dimmer function.

The Aqara H1 switch with (or without) neutral has no dim-function.  
It can only open or close a circuit and thus turn on or off dumb lights in that circuit.  
At the same you can have smart lights that are not in that circuit to turn on or off.

If there a no dumb lights in the circuit, I can think off a way to dim permanent powered smart lights using the turned on and turned off signals to be dimmed.

Description says it a switch, not a dimmer.

Just checked the specs. Apparently I remembered wrong, it’s indeed a switch not a dimmer
