I know there have been posts before but I feel homey is losing critical functionality.  
I have a:

- Projectionscreen
- Beamer
- Axa window openers

All working with infrared but not available in the homey app.  
You used to be able to setup/ learn Homey new code but the functionality is gone. So I feel my automation options are gone? Anybody please help how do I setup own codes?

So I know its out, I am looking for a solution. The only thing you are saying with your reply is that homey indeed became less usefull as a product + software for home automation.

> You can create Homey apps that use Infrared signals to control devices. This allows you to automate devices such as TVs and speakers that don't have "smart" capabilities.
