Anybody have some more info on which new features will be coming tot homey V5?

Only way is to check github repo, in app.json you can find the sdk version number. But all main apps are sdk2 or 3

I figured that out and just updated. All seems to be working fine :slight_smile: Only one app sdk1, led ring collection :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: And there are some alternatives, so I will manage

I haven’t upgraded to v5 yet, so question for those who did: Does this increase the Zigbee range at all? I have a sensor in my shed that’s struggling to connect and I’m wondering if I should hold off on getting another router for it in case v5 fixes the issue.

I don’t think it would increase range, hardware is not changed in either homey or your devices. My devices are still connected, but i have a lot of routers (philips hue) so no idea about range And having routers in a zigbee mesh is a always a good idea anyways…

@Cory v5’s zigbee is awesome. Reliability and speed is much better. It wont improve range, if range is a problem include more net powered zigbee devices or ikea signal booster, all net powered zigbee devices will work as a mesh router in your zigbee network

Again when are they expecting to release the final V5? Just bought some stuf from Robsshop (its own brand) to find out it is not supported under V4 (not stated on their website), and not planning to update the robs.app for V4. Only V5. So its useless for the moment.

@Lowlander61 . Wait no more :wink: Well… you will have to install the experimental firmware… but the app is ready. [image] ROBB smarrt Automatisera ditt hem eller kontor på det 'smarta' sättet med ROBBshops egen linje!
