I have tried to login in to my homey device using my 192.168.x.x:4859/web/login-local address, but my user id and passwords do not work. What am I doing wrong? ---

I guess. I was able to get a local user set up, but thats about it. Think i’m going to stick with HA, this is way too complicated, can’t find any of my devices, no apps for anything I use. Even to do the most simplest of things requires a phone. ---

> [@King\_Papadaddy](#): > > no apps for anything I use Which devices are you missing? In my case, it’s actually the other way around: Homey has apps for many devices that HA doesn’t support ---

Leviton lights, I’ve got about a dozen that are wifi but homey needs some adapter, tapu cameras, and a Chinese diesel heater. That I might be able to get working with my broadlink. also couldn’t connect it to tailscale but that isn’t too important since it would be offline pretty much all the time and from what I’ve read, homey doesn’t work offline very well. ---
