Hello, does anyone know how to pair candles with Homey? These candles work with a remote control. I’ve installed the application and brought the candles close to Homey, but nothing happens. I assume it works through Homey’s infrared (IR), but since I’ve never used the IR feature, I don’t understand how to proceed.

What type Homey do you have?
This app just copied the IR code from the developer. Nothing to pair, just play
homey 2023
How do we do it?
What have you tried?
I installed the application and added it via “New”. The icon appears correctly with various possible uses. However, when I click, for example, on “Turn on”, nothing happens, even with the candles next to the Homey. I assume it’s normal because I haven’t configured the candle remote to the Homey. I don’t know how to do that.
The same here.
Hi all, fun fact: These candles were in our Christmas Package this year, a colleauge wrote the App 
You really need to hold the Homey right next to the candles before they work, they are really picky with picking up the IR signal. It’s a limitation of the candles unfortunately.
Oké, i will give it a try. Thanks.
Hi Abe,
Nice christmas gift 
So they don’t work because of the range? Or is the APP not working?
The app works, but the IR receiver in the candles is extremely weak. Even with the included remote, you have to hold it very close to the candle for it to respond. As a result, when Homey sends a command, the candles often fail to pick it up.
Aah, oke.
Noproblems with the remote here turns on/off a few meters away. I tried to learn the code from the Homey/APP but nothing is send. Don’t know what the problem is.
But i have a Logitec Harmony that learns the code from the remote en that works great.
Same here. Even with the candles placed against or on top of Homey Pro 2023, there is no response when setting on/off in Homey. Maybe the IR code has changed?
Same here.
The app directly installs a couple of candles without pressing a button on the remote. For example: How to add the remote to the added candles?

Another user was kind enough to provide me with a remote and a candle, which allowed me to implement support in a test version. Could you please try this version and let me know if it works? Thanks!
Hi Stephan, it works! I have a 10-button Flinq remote, and I can control it as a “Anna’s Collection 10“ device.
Addition: it works as an Action 10 button device even better, with support for all 10 buttons
Bedankt voor het snelle testen Hans! Grappig dat uiteindelijk de Action-driver het beste werkt. Het blijft lastig: alles komt uit China en veel van die afstandsbedieningen lijken sterk op elkaar, terwijl er op de apparaten zelf vaak geen merknaam staat. In ieder geval bedankt!
