Ok, solved it via the tap to run method to be able to set two predefined temperatures from within Homey. Unfortunately, only basic functionality for now, but happy that I am able to control it within Homey flows at all.

What does the “tap-to-run” method entail, step by step?

I made two automations (scènes) within the regular Tuya app. These scenes can be started within a Homey flow (via the Homey Tuya cloud app flows).

Is Magnum via smartlife toe te voegen en zo te gebruiken in Homey?

From the top of my head, that should work. I prefer the Tuya Smart app combined with Homey Tuya Cloud app

Look for it in the 1st post the dedicated Tuya Cloud app topic please!  
You can find the link at the homey.app store app page.

Hi, i managed to ad the magnum floorheating thermostaat in my smartlife app and added the device via the tuya cloud app in Homey. Works prefectly in Homey now!

I managed to add the wifi thermostaat in Tuya. Now I can acces it and change the temperature. However. The value of the temperature sensor in the device is not the same as the temperature Homey shows.Now Floor teperature is 18 and Homey says it’s 22. Cannot find a calibrate. Anybody has a solution. (By the way. Homey wifi thermostaat says it stopped heating (blue instead of red) But the thermostaat is still working (heating Up). So I can still manage it)

Are the values within the Tuya app correct or is it it wrong even in there?

I figured out the thermostaat itself must be broken/not wright. The floor now feels warm. Tuta says it’s 22 C. But tyhe thermostaat in the bathroom still says 17 C.

I have the same issue as mentioned in the last few messages. Temperature target can be set via Homey → Tuya Cloud, but the measured temperature is not updated. While Tuya Cloud app shows the correct number, this is not synchronized to Homey.

A restart of the app, refreshes the current value of one of the two thermostat i have installed.  
the 2nd one stays stuck. (edit: not stuck, it just moves in 1.0 degC increments, strange as well)

I put a restart of the app every 15 minutes. so i at least get a periodic update

The best solution currently is the Tuya-app made by Homey and the Thermostat device. If the Magnum MRC is included in the Tuya Smart app (which is evidently the same as Magnums own app, with the same functions), the floor heating can be linked to Homey with the most relevant functionality available, e.g. reading the current temperature and changing the target temperature. Athom’s Thermostat device has settings that are not useful for the MRC, but as you have the device in the Tuya Smart Live app, this is not an issue. The different operation modes of the Magnum MRC are not reflected in Athom’s device driver, because these are not modes (or workstates), but ControlMode variables. These can even be changed in Homey via the driver with a workflow action “Set (code) to String (value)”, with (code) ControlMode and (value) to AUTO, MANUAL, FROST or HOLIDAY (HOLIDAY might not work as it requires also the number of days specified). All the above is case sensitive.  
Adding a device to Athom’s Tuya app is still fragile, due to the many authentication steps. If something goes wrong, the device is “added” incorrectly and the only way to cure that is to remove and reinstall the Tuya app.  
A new device request was made, but denied by Athom.  
Nevertheless, this is the best solution so far.
