So I bought Homey took it to Jamaica and plugged it in, I have Yo-Link Stuff primarily because our concrete houses dont seem to like Zigbee or ZWave we have some success with Wifi but I think the jury is out the best success has been Yolink but the build of their stuff and app is alot to be desired. So I am looking for help to get the most out of my Homey but I feel stuck. ---

Hi, YoLink was adviced last July, as reply to the same question, but you didn’t respond anymore > [@Connectivity](https://community.homey.app/t/connectivity/157762/3): > > Perhaps mention your problems in the YoLink topic here: The Homey App developer reads along there. I have been very pleased with Yolink for quite a while now. The range is superb and don’t have any complaints about the Android app as well. For me everything is very reliable.

Hi it is just very glitchy, for example many times I go in the app the.devices are not available or show a wrong state. I really like what Honey is supposed to be but if we can’t get a consistent connection from Yolink then I don’t think it is going to work well. ---

In that case, you can connect the devices using the official YoLink Homey app: > **[YoLink | Homey](https://homey.app/en-us/app/com.yolink/YoLink/)** > > Powering your smart home with Yolink’s long-range reliability. ---
