I’ve been really happy with my Homey Pro, but I recently encountered an issue. I purchased a Dreame X40 vacuum robot, assuming it would integrate seamlessly with Homey since it’s one of the fastest-growing and best vacuum robots on the market. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a way to integrate it.
Does anyone know if there’s a solution or workaround to get the Dreame X40 connected with Homey? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Except for Matter enabled devices, (most) supported functions (should) work without an app.
And for zigbee & z-wave enabled devices is very basic support for lights, switches/plugs, like OnOff & dim
I also have a dreame bot (can’t remember the version) and agree that it is a really great vacuum cleaner and can also agree that you always have to check first if the product is supported.
But I could easily integrate it with a simple an cheap Amazon Alexa dot. You install the Dreamehome skill and then you can manage the dreame with the skill and the flows.
Yes, you would need to use the Xiami Mi Home app to control your Dreame X40 robot. However that specific device is still not listed as officially supported:
For now you can only pair them if you know the IP (which I did) and you are able to get the necessarry token to actually connect to the device (which I failed to do for now). I will let you know if I succeed during the weekend.
Yes, it’s in development. For now, I will create a simple integration because it takes a lot of time. I’m doing reverse engineering and have set up a proxy to capture requests between the robot and the Dreame app. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the Dreame specifications on https://home.miot-spec.com

That’s very personal and region dependent imho. I’ve never heard of Dreame.
