Thanks for making this local app!
The app config on my side is recogizing the dishwasher, hob, hood and oven. But only the oven and dishwasher are found as devices.
Would be great if you could add the hob and hood as well
@lucasvdh
Thanks for your time for make this app possible and your support.
Appreciated.
Let me know how I can donate for your work
And to add, regarding the “Remaining time” as status indicator. I think based on the documentation it is just a matter of exposing this capability as a string (like the official app) instead of a number; or give the capability a specific prefix (meter_ or measure_).
The agent string and the headers are sort of needed as this homey app is simulating to be the Bosch Home Connect app. The app sends this values for identification purposes I would guess. I don’t know if the Headers are mandatory though. If it works without for all devices than it is probably no issue to leave them blank.
changing my json file to the dedicated ip or change the name to blah blah.local, didn’t change it. The dishwasher is still not found on the network. Anyone have any tips/ideas?
Ich hatte zuerst ziemliche Probleme, die SingleKey-ID Anmeldung durchzuführen. Über den Login mit Browser klappte es gar nicht, dann habe ich die App für meinen Mac bei Github geladen und nach ein paar Versuchen konnte ich die *.json downloaden.
Mein Bosch Wäschetrockner funktioniert ohne Probleme (ist ein ganz neues Modell), mein Siemens Geschirrspüler wird erkannt, kann dann aber über das Netzwerk nicht erreicht werden. Habe alle Tipps hier im Forum ausprobiert mit den Änderungen beim Host-Eintrag. Zuerst .local, dann mit der lokalen IP-Adresse und zuletzt noch mit .fritz.box
Ich kann alle diese Adressen per Ping erreichen aber die App findet das Gerät nicht.
Danke schon mal für die gute Idee.
Tom
Did you check something ? @lucasvdh

I got device. It available on local network but is added and
Have the same issue
Hi everyone,
First off, thank you all for the testing and the detailed reports, it has been a huge help.
It took me a little longer than planned to get back to you, but I’ve now gone through the whole thread and created a GitHub issue for each bug report so nothing gets lost and you can follow along.
The main one: appliances found but “unreachable on the local network”
This is by far the most reported problem (thanks @Ray_S, @owuerker, @Jurgen_Jacobs, Dennis Weel, @Mark1541, @Effendi68 and everyone else who chimed in). I’ve split what I found into two issues:
- 403 on the connection caused by an empty Origin header: https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/7
- hostname / mDNS / IPv6 resolution: https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/8
@Ray_S did some great digging on this. In the meantime, the workarounds that helped people were adding .local to the host in the imported JSON, or using a static IP. I’m working on proper fixes for both.
Other bugs I logged
- Energy/water forecast and program progress showing wrong values (@Amersfoort): https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/9
- Status indicators differing between the phone app and the web app (@Ray_S): https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/10
- Older washers needing a manual remote start when powered off (@Ray_S): https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/11
A few questions answered
- @Ray_S asked where to send feedback: GitHub issues are easiest for me to keep track of from now on ( https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues ), but the forum is of course still fine too.
- @MichiganJones, the Siemens InHab energy monitor isn’t supported yet. Logged it here: https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/18
- @Markus8, the IVT/Bosch heat pump is an interesting one. I’m not sure yet whether it speaks the same local protocol, so I want to look into it before I promise anything: https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/16
- @Florian_Truck, you’re right that you can only set the options at the moment, not pick the program itself. Tracked here: https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/17
New device types people asked for
A lot of these are appliances I don’t own myself, so I’ll be leaning on you for testing once I get to them.
Their progress will be tracked at:
- Induction hobs/cooktops: https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/12
- Extractor hoods: https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/13
- Coffee machines: https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/14
- Fridges/freezers: https://github.com/lucasvdh/codes.lucasvdh.homeconnect/issues/15
Thanks again to @Gabriel_Laguna for the pull requests on the washer and dryer options and to @Ray_S and @Florian_Truck for the deep debugging on the connection side.
One heads up: I’m going on holiday next week, so it will likely be around three weeks before I have proper time to pick this back up. I’ll keep an eye on things when I can, and the GitHub issues are the best place to follow progress or add anything new in the meantime.
Thanks for the patience and the testing, see you in a few weeks.
Thanks and have a nice holiday !
Is the problem with mdns on my side then or is it something with your apple?
Other devices from other apps working fine I think !
Can you explain how you did this?
Thank a bunch Lucas! It seems your Local Home Connect app is getting quite some attention . 
I added an issue in github regarding the “Remaining time” Status indicator. (Which probably is somewhat related to the one you already logged about webapp vs phone app)
Hi Tom,
I had a small issue with my dishwasher as well when first creating the device. After creating the dishwasher device, the connection was broken. But after I turned on the dishwasher manually (or actually, via the official Home Connect app), the connection automatically changed to successful and the problem disappeared. Also after shutting down the dishwasher again.
i think I saw that happening twice, but (un)fortunately I can not seem to reproduce this behaviour now. I removed all devices and added the dishwasher again but now it succeeds directly, even though the machine is turned off.
Also, I guess you are not using the app on two different Homeys? I tested on a Homey SHS but had the devices also created on my Homey Pro. I think I remember seeing some connection errors due to duplicates, so I removed all device from my Homey Pro. But I guess this is not a common setup, so did not report it as a bug.
Thanks, Enjoy and have a nice holiday! 
I will test in the next days too, great job Lucas Will you add coffee machines too? Im having a dish washer and a coffee machine right now from Siemens
Nice, this is what I’ve been waiting for.
Definitely going to test
washing machine
tumble dryer
dishwasher
Combi oven
This was the fix for my washing machine as well
