Perhaps. Your best bet is probably with the WiFi version, as with TuYa Zigbee devices you never know what you’re going to get.

There are various TuYa apps available in the app store.

I have bought the same (zigbee), but not working in Homey. I have it working with Home Assistant and then Hass Homey community plugin, this works great. But you need Home Assistant for it with a Zigbee sick.

No, the FP1 is a Zigbee device, and AFAIK the Aqara Zigbee app doesn’t support it. The FP2 _should_ work with the [HomeKit Controller app](https://homey.app/a/com.verbem.Hhomekiy/).
