You seem to have a similar problem to what I had yesterday. Honestly I’m not entirely sure what solved the problem for me, but I did change the broker from Homey app to openHabian Mosquitto. I’d recommend doing that anyway to leave as much load as possible off of homey. But sometimes it’s just best to restart from the beginning. Uninstall all apps and just go from there once more. I did that and it works great now 🙂 ---

Ow…you guys are using the settings already! 😬 Know these are not fully functional yet. Especially the on/off button has still some issues (read: don’t flip the switch, or else ☠). ---

Just to be clear, do we still need HA for this or can we directly tie Homey and GH together using MQTT? ---

Well, my question would be: will it eventually evolve into something that would be usable “off the shelf” as a dashboard application for my wall mounted tablet? ![32-1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/e/e5899181a92b4abb728ee604939d10ba6c95059f.jpeg) ---

@HarriedeGroot Looking for a way to use homeys devices from within GH. So without the ask homey… is that possible using this MQTT stuff above? Can / want to elaborate, im just not that much into MQTT yet. ---

@Jan_Peeters Sorry, nope. … The purpose of this app is to connect Homey to the outside world. It’s like a ‘hub’ using mqtt as the communication protocol. It’s **not** meant as a standalone dashboard app. There are many [others](https://community.homey.app/t/concept-heima-for-homey-wall-mounted-dashboard/7702) working on those (edit: sorry, wrong link). ---

I think @Phuturist got this working already? Combined with the great efforts of @xAPPO: > [@Phuturist](#): > > The NodeRED flow by @xAPPO is awesome. I can use most of my devices in home assistant and even use the Dutch Google assistant with my Homey devices because of it! I have said it before and will say it again, I love where this is going. ---

I’m on homey 2.0 (software, not hw, right?)… Not seeing the settings either… - mqtt gateway v2.0.1 - mqtt client v2.2.0 - homey v2.0.2-rc.2 ideas? In mqtt-explorer, I am seeing a 5 `homey_abcd....` entries, 1 with the name of my homey, and one called `homey`… All with `status = offline`. Tried to restart gateway and client without luck ---

Patience guys 🙂 , the settings is WIP and can be found on the [homie2 branch](https://github.com/harriedegroot/nl.hdg.mqtt/tree/homie2) (install via athom-cli). ---

> [@Jeroen\_Bos](#): > > Looking for a way to use homeys devices from within GH. So without the ask homey… is that possible using this MQTT stuff above? Can / want to elaborate, im just not that much into MQTT yet. Yes I have this working indeed. Most has been described by xAPPO already here: [MQTT Hub/Gateway - #147 by xAPPO](https://community.homey.app/t/mqtt-gateway/6766/147) The only thing extra is that you need to connect Google Assistant to Home Assistant as described here: [Google Assistant - Home Assistant](https://www.home-assistant.io/components/google_assistant/) (follow manual setup) You will then have your Homey devices imported into HA and you can use Google Home to control them in your native language.
