Say hello to Homey Portal, a sleek smart home controller with a round 2.8-inch touchscreen wrapped in a stainless steel ring. Assign it to a zone, and it controls everything you’ve connected there, with a tap or a twist. Anyone in the room can use it. You can pre-order Homey Portal today, at an introductory price for the first production run. Both a desk stand and wall mount are included. Orders are handled first-come, first-served, and are expected to ship before the end of 2026. We can’t wait to get it into your hands 👉 [Explore Homey Portal](https://homey.app/homey-portal/) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/7/374e8b7b78458440d767de78959b0afcb226b135.jpeg) ---
