I chose Homey Bidge to be able to integrate devices from different manufacturers into one system. Right at the beginning, however, I ran into a problem that made me question the whole project. If I add a noname zigber device, for example a plug or touch switch, homey controls it perfectly. On the other hand, when I do the on/off physically on the device, homey does not see this, so the flow does not run. This is not a problem for a Smarttinghs HUB, for example… Is there a solution to this other than using a supported device? ---

Hoi! Not guaranteed way - but You may be check the groups on Your “noname” devices. Usually the device is reporting state changes ( switch/temp/…etc) to members of specific groups. So, there is possibility that during “pairing” (inclusion…) the device not added Bridge into specific group automatically - also Bridge did’nt that during initial configuration of device. So, if You have Noname’s manual - check this point (groups and their meaning). If not - then it’s possible to experiment ( add Bridge into any group ) - but pls. do not it with animals 😉 ( it may be risky). PS. You do not menton the protocol - so, do not expect the _exact_ protocol specific terminology from my side 😉 ---

> [@Cuprum](#): > > add Bridge into any group Unfortunately, I don’t know how to do this. ---

Homey (cloud), but also Homey Pro, is very limited in what a device can do without an app for said brand. If it is On/Off, can dim or change color it **should** work without app, towards the device, but signals back to Homey might not be handeld correctly. ---

Well, that’s it, but it can’t be a big deal if smartthings handles it smoothly. ---

It is just how Athom designed Homey (any version) from the very start, everything should have an app, to offer the best support for a particular brand (and it’s devices), no (or hardly) any generic support. ---

I found out that the plugs are OEM Tuya. According to them, in order to use them fully, I have to wait until I can buy a Homey Pro.
