no mqtt zigbee on home assistant yes now theres simplier ways to integrate to home assistant but originally you made connection through developer on tuya , afer tuya app upped its security. 3rd party integration on git hub for tuya got better over the years QR is only recently on devices 8 relays as digital switches. 00000000 01000100 etc now a word read on other platform. lag and baud compromised do to cloud but managable you reset to 8 zeros when read. ---

sorry about the delay in response but i was resticted as new user on the amount of comments allowed in forum. sofar homey seems to be a monitoring platform with threshhold , switch ,input number and binary controls. Lots of work done by community. still not a true across platform hub. A hub is a central point or place where things meet, connect, or form the main center of activity. Yo **Common Meanings and Examples** - **Center of Activity:** A very busy place where a lot happens. - _Example:_ “The kitchen is the hub of the family home.” - **Transportation & Commerce:** A central station or airport where travelers or goods change routes. - _Example:_ “London is a major global travel hub.” - **Physical Objects:** The middle part of a wheel, fan, or propeller that holds the blades or spokes and where the axle passes through. - **Technology & Networking:** A hardware device used to connect multiple computers or USB devices together in a single network. A **rant** is a long, loud, and angry speech or piece of writing where someone complains about something they dislike. **Key Meanings** - **As a noun:** A passionate, forceful, and often emotional or confused complaint. Accordingly, it acts as a synonym for a tirade **As a verb:** To speak or shout in a noisy, angry, or extravagant way for a long time. else thanks for the introduction to Homey ---

i tried to understand your posts, but i must say that i don’t understand half of them. For me most of them are about general issues with more environments and not apply only to Homey. Can’t you just simply explain what real problems you have with Homey? ---

I want access to all devices on other platforms apps with full use of all entities to use through one device the homey. ---

> [@David\_Watson](#): > > I want access to all devices Which devices do you have? I read Tuya, but what others? Not all devices are supported, some of the manufacturers make it impossible to integrate their products with captcha’s and other bot protections. For Tuya devices, you can install this app: > **[Tuya | Homey](https://homey.app/en-us/app/com.tuya2/Tuya/)** > > Smart Life. Smart Living. ---

Yes I know I was just hoping homey was more capable. I invested in it believing it’s description on web site and thought it was more advanced. My assumptions. Had it for 24hrs found not useful for me. Homey has its niche. I am still searching for ui that minimises my recoding all the time. Sorry ---

I don’t get it. You “want it all”, but you insist on using Tuya crap. Nuff said. ---

Maybe you should develop an “everything works with my hub” device yourself. I think you will get very very rich… ---
