> Tuya integration doesn’t work

You assume Tuya is one app. It’s not. Tuya wifi devices are supported by [Tuya Cloud community app](https://community.homey.app/t/21313);  
Tuya Zigbee devices are supported by the, yes, [Tuya zigbee](https://homey.app/a/com.tuya.zigbee/test/) app

Nedis = Tuya whitelabel btw

I do not recommend Tuya (whitelabel) devices though.  
But, I use Tuya stuff for 4 years now, most of it still works fine.  
Only the smart plugs started oscillating after a few years, so I binned those right away.

Here’s a link to Athom recommended (measuring) plugs:
