Using homey for three years and still happyš
+1
1,5 year and still quite happy. Although there sure are some difficulties, i wonāt deny that. But it does what it should do for me, soā¦
Same overhere. Still have a few old kaku shit, also working as aspect.
Iām not a happy user, but content. My reason to not be happy is not due to instability. What is it that you are running in to?
my biggest issue is that its not stabelā¦ one day/hour its working all fineā¦ then some hours/days, the homey says that it have preformed as flow shuld. but nothing happensā¦ most with one of my traafri bulbs (that happend after the last update ikea app had) and the outer is my danalock, sometimes it says lookedā¦ but my door is still unlookedā¦ what presence app are you using Peter_de_Vos?
I realy want too love my homeyā¦ but at the moment i could have throw it way out at the northen see.
I use the beacon app with tile pro 2018 for presence, but also use life360 app for other geofence notifications, witch works also very accurate
Is it possible to use phone Bluetooth on beacon app? Or just tile?
Just tile i ques
Oki. Now i lost my connection with one of the traadfri bulbs again. āStuckā on ON. Got error timeout. I also use a traadfri repetere. Any one of you that have had some issues with them?
I know it sounds silly, but have you tried to make your homey sphere without power for 30 minutes. Quite a few people have confirmed that this resolved a lot of strange issues.so literally pull the plug, wait 30 minutes and plug it. The waiting is important.
I recently had a simular issue with a motion detector (hue outdoor). The bulb which lives 60 cm next to it worked fine, but the motion detector wasnāt recieved anymore.
I moved homey to another part of my house (which was something I wanted to do anyway) and now I have no issues. Iām not sure if it was the time during moving it, or the physical relocation that fixed it for me though.
Edit: Do you have the zigbee or zwave danalock?
ill try to take the power for a while. just done like 10 sekunds before.
i have zwave danalook. and use bluetooth connection also. feels more stabil with the bluetooth connection also.
After some playing around I am using Homey seriously for about 6 months now.
Very happy about the possibilities and mostly also about the functionality.
Only the occasional random Fibaro switch/dimmer not turning on or off while Homey states it did (wrong status) worries me a lot for times when I am not at home to see and correct. The fact it does not switch is acceptable, displaying the wrong status is not.
My X-mas wish would be reliable status
Using Homey almost for a year and iām very happy with it despite some āhick-upsā with my Z-wave motion sensors from Coolcam.
I do noticed that, during a year of visiting this forum, people tend to have a lot of issues with lighting other than Philips Hue. I understand why people choose for cheaper options like Tradfri but it doesnāt always seem to work out for the best.
My Homey communicates with a Hue Bridge and a bunch of Hue lights on several floors and rooms and it has always worked like a charm.
Despite the expensive price of Hue i get a reliable lighting system in return with a high level of performance.
I use both Homey and Telldus and both works quite well. But sometimes both Homey and Telldus miss part of a flow. Especialy now at Christmas a device can still be on during the night. It happens randomly on both Homey and I control both with Alexa and if I tell the device to turn iff it works.
I also have problems with Traadfri, but they are the same as I had with HomeSeer. I regard it as āyou get what you pay forā. I am in the process of replacing all of my Traadfri. Hue has never acted this way.
That being said, Homey does become quite cluttered really fast when building flows. It has no way of competing with HomeSeer, unless youāre running a moderate setup. And thatās unfortunate, because HomeSeer really sucks (!!!) in gui. Iām still confused, after 15 years with HS. Maybe HomeAssistant is turning into the best option after all, given their major GUI upgrades lately.
How do you get Homey to Bluetooth on Dana lock , I have the same trouble and the worst is that in the app it say it is locked but it isnāt
i know , it is connected with z-wave now but it is unstable. the treadstarter here say he got it connected with bluetooth to Homey also and maybee that is a more stable connection
ok. thank you, i havenāt noticed that when i installed it. gonna try it later to see if that will do the trick
