So just as I anticipated (since last Homey update mentioned Google Assistant update) Google Home finally has full acces to Homey! Works great for most things. Only my ZWave Devolo radiator knob doesn’t do anything (it shows up, but no info/actions. I removed the Gbridge link to fully test this. Too bad I cannot hide certain devices from Google Home. I have some devices connected directly to Google Home and Homey, which causes them to show up twice. Perhaps I’ll just delete the direct Google Home link with those devices.
Btw, there still is no Homey 2.3 app, but it still works.
Edit: just unlinked IKEA and Mi Home connection and strictly use Homey connection within Google Home. Those devices just as fast and direct as direct connection :)! Also I created a new room called “Unused” and just put the devices and virtual devices for Flows I don’t use with speech in there. Also my Aqara curtains is only seen as a switch instead of actual curtains with percentage open/close. This way I have to say “turn on/off curtains” instead “open/close curtains”.
Here’s hoping the Devolo ZWave radiator will work soon. Everything else works very well for now!
Edit 2: although my Aqara curtains are seen as a switch, I can set it at percentages. So that’s less of a issue now.
Edit 3: unfortunately the Xiaomi Aqara Zigbee “battery” devices do not show up. Like the temperature sensor, door sensor and zigbee buttons. The power plug and curtain do show up though. Maybe Google Home doesn’t support sensors (yet)?
Here’s hoping the mentioned Homey 2.3 app will add some fixes and features. Though I am VERY happy since this works better than with the Gbridge and 95% is usable straight away as it should.
