Tutorials

Hi everyone :waving_hand:

I recently started testing Homey Pro and decided to document the experience step by step in a Beginner Series, starting completely from scratch.

The goal of this series is to help new Homey users get up and running quickly, understand the basics, and build confidence before moving into more advanced setups — without overcomplicating things.

:small_blue_diamond: What this series covers

  • First-time setup and initial configuration

  • Homey app & menus overview

  • Apps and compatibility (Zigbee, Wi-Fi, Matter)

  • Pairing devices from different brands (IKEA, Aqara, Sonoff, NOUS, Roborock, etc.)

  • Building simple automations with Flows

  • Introduction to Advanced Flow using real-world examples

:clapper_board: Current episodes

Feedback is very welcome — especially from more experienced Homey users.
If there’s something specific you’d like to see covered in future episodes, feel free to let me know :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks!

Hi everyone :waving_hand:

I’ve started a Homey Pro beginner series, and this is Episode 02, where I focus on the basics that most new users struggle with after the initial setup.

In this episode, I cover:

  • Pairing devices from different brands (Zigbee & Wi-Fi)

  • How the Homey App & Apps system works

  • Adding devices like IKEA, Aqara, Sonoff, NOUS, and Roborock

  • Building a first automation using Flows

  • A practical Advanced Flow example (motion + time + delay)

The goal of the series is to show how Homey works step by step, from a beginner’s perspective, without skipping important details.
