\*\*What is the brand:\*\* Somfy (with Zigbee Motors) \*\*What is/are the device(s)/service for type:\*\* - Roller blinds \*\*What kind of category/signal(s) would the app use:\*\* - Zigbee \*\*Is there an (public) API / documentation / manual(s) or known (other) implementations (like Blogs/Github etc)?\*\* - Existing thread on the wish to have this app available for Homey: [Can somfy Zigbee motors be used with the current somfy app(s)?](https://community.homey.app/t/can-somfy-zigbee-motors-be-used-with-the-current-somfy-app-s/133633) - Some other discussion on (im)possibilities of Somfy Zigbee: [Reddit - The heart of the internet](https://www.reddit.com/r/ZigBee/comments/1dyk15q/anyone_played_with_the_somfy_sonesse2_zigbee/) \*\*Are you willing to loan or donate to a developer?\*\* - Yes, donate money € \*\*Extra information:\*\* Apperently Somfy uses its own Zigbee network but there is a way to let the device pair with other regular Zigbee networks (See Reddit thread above): _“I have been able to pair a Sonesse2 motor with zigbee2mqtt, and the trick was so simple that I can´t even believe it, I just had to hold the button of the blind for 10 seconds (instead of 5 seconds the manual says) and the blind did 2 consecutive jogs and it immediately joined the zigbee network. It seems by default the blind creates its own zigbee network, and by holding the button longer it enters a different pairing mode to join other networks”._ I tried this method using the “Somfy Sonesse2 28 Wirefree Zigbee, 2Nm/20tpm, Li-ion’ device and it connected to my Homey Pro but was recognized as a ‘Unknown’ device’ that only had one operation ( = on/off) that was not supported. So it did not do anything. But it connected! So my guess/hope is that adding some usefull functionality (most usefull is just up and down) should hopelfully not be very difficult. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.homey.app/t/requests-homey-pro-community-app-requests/2713)._
