Hi all! I’m about to buy myself in the Homey community after doubting Home assistant vs Homey for many years. I only cant figure out if my Somfy RTS 433mhz screen will directly communicate with Homey Pro or that I will still need the Somfy connectivity kit for this. If its the latter, I might as well buy the Homey pro mini later this year as I have no other use for the 433mhz module in that case. Any thoughts? ---

Make sure you have Somfy RTS and not iO, Have a look at your remote control: [Rolluik Somfy RTS - #22 by Birger\_Naert](https://community.homey.app/t/rolluik-somfy-rts/121721/22) as @Birger_Naert was also confused. ---

Yes works, 3 screens all RTS directly. ---

Can others confirm if the tile for Somfy blind changes color when opened vs closed. For me it’s the same which is frustrating for a window cover. Current working around via HA app and presenting as cover. ---

No it does not change color but I think that is due to the fact you use RTS, which sends no status back. It’s one way traffic, unlike Somfy IO. Tbh I don’t really care, as I automate my blinds. If I order it to open, and it’s already opened the Somfy motor stops the request anyway. ---
