Please integrate the Osram Ligthify Lightstripes Outdoor.Osram Smart + ZigBee RGB LED Strip Outdoor Stripes, warm white, daylight (2000K - 6500K), dimmable, length 5m, Alexa compatible.  
These are only recognized as a Zigbee device. Please, I have been waiting for a long time and have already made a request in August. Thank you

There is a beta version of the app in the Homey App store that supports the flex (lightstripe). I think it will work for the outdoor version as well.

In the changelog it says  
1.2.4

- Added product id for Lightify Flex (outdoor)

What manufacturerName, productId, deviceId and profileId does the device display which is only recognized as basic zigbee device?

This is probably a silly question, but am I right in thinking that Osram Smart+ devices can be used without a gateway as long as I have a Homey or Hue bridge? I am especially interested in the gardenpoles.

yes both is possible.  
You can use them with a Philips Hue bridge and the [Hue app](https://apps.athom.com/app/nl.philips.hue) or you can connect it directly with Homey using the [Osram Zigbee App](https://apps.athom.com/app/com.osram.lightify.zigbee).

I am trying to add the “Osram Smart+ Gardenpool Mini Multicolor” (says the box), but Homey says it cannot find an app and adds it as an unknown Zigbee device. Is this device different from the “Gardenpool Mini RGBW (ZigBee)” Osram Lightify app device? I have also tried adding it as one of the other gardenpool devices.

Hi, with spring arrived I have finally been able to install my Osram Gardenspot Mini RGB using the [https://apps.athom.com/app/com.osram.lightify.zigbee](https://apps.athom.com/app/com.osram.lightify.zigbee). First of all, I couldn’t put them where I intended as this was probably too far away from the Homey and wouldn’t connect. But even after moving them closer to the Homey, there is a kind of serious issue: Whenever I turn the spots off (either in the Homey app or the Home app), they turn off and then on again right afterwards. The only way that (mostly) works is to dim down to 0%.

Any fixes for this?

It’s not on the official list of supported devices but is there any way to connect and work the Smart+ outdoor light?

As I posted before… This is bugging me too! A simple ledvance dimmable E14 candle is not recognized bij Homey. Tried both the lightify app as the Hue app. Device is added as standard zigbee device NOT DIMMABLE! The Osram ledvance product line is rather limited compared to hue. How hard can it be to add devices??? Especially if there is a E27 version that already exists?  
I contacted Athom support and they told me to contact Osram support. I had to ask support for Homey… ofcourse no answer from Osram…

Ask for support with Homey here: [https://www.osram.com/os/contact/forms/technical\_support.jsp](https://www.osram.com/os/contact/forms/technical_support.jsp)  
If more people are requesting Osram to help Homey adding devices, they will get triggered. So do an effort and request support @Osram

I know @robertklep  
But that is what Athom told me… I guess they need “help” in keeping up support for all non supported ledvance devices?  
Anyway, I do understand why Athom asks me to contact Osram, but can’t say I was really pleased with the Athom answer on my support request 😕

It may have been a boilerplate answer, where the support person didn’t even know that Athom develops the Osram app… 🙄

And I _don’t_ understand why Athom is asking you to contact Osram. What can you, and Osram, do? If Athom requires specific knowledge, they are in the best position to ask Osram about it.

Hi, I am a new user to Homey and I am converting from the Klikaanklikuit control station. I tried to add my Osram Smart+ Zigbee motion sensors but to this moment I didn’t succeed.  
Does anyone have an idea if the app is still being developed and new devices are being added? I saw that the last update was 1 year ago…
