So - this might be a stupid question but I just bought the Homey Pro without looking into what the hub provided but I thought the hub would support Z-wave?

When I open the Homey Pro beta app and choose “Add a new device” and then go to the Z-wave option I get a message telling me that I need to buy a Homey Bridge.

Is this really the case? I can’t seem to find any other way to include my z-wave devices…

Sounds like you mistakenly registered for a Homey Cloud subscription instead of adding a Homey Pro to your account.

That might be the case - so now I’m stuck in some kind of in between? I can’t seem to find anywhere to add the homey pro to my account.

welcome number 3 of users this week that either don’t receive the email, or just don’t read it.  
but you should have had an e-mail with your Homey Pro (early 2023) that guides you to the [early access page](https://homey.app/en-us/wiki/hp23-early-access/) on what to do next to include the still in early access Homey Pro.

Wow, the last sentence was what I was after.

Log in or create an account, and select _New Homey_ when asked what you want to do. If you already have a Homey, **tap the Homey’s name while on _Home_ and tap the blue Plus-icon in the top-right corner next to _My Homeys_ .**

I had to press “Homey” in the top, and there was a blue + sign.
