Hi everyone

Is it possible to exclude a familymember (guest account) from accessing a particular device in the Homey App? It is a Child and out TV is connected to a homey included power supply. I don‘t want him to be able to turn that particular device on or off. Can I do something like that? Or do you have other ideas, how I could achieve a similar result?

Best regards,

Stefan

FWIN there’s no such possibility.

However, if you mean by this

_a Homey controlled smart power plug/socket:_  
these often can be set to “Always on” per Homey device settings, but that means Homey cannot control it anylonger.

It’s a bit all or nothing
