Hello Homey Community, I am currently in the process of evaluating potential alternatives to my current home automation setup with Vera, and I find myself hesitating between Hubitat (C8pro) and HomeyPro. Before making a final decision, I wanted to reach out to the knowledgeable members of the Homey…

Search the app store to see if all your devices are actually supported by Homey (don’t assume that because Athom markets Homey as supporting 50,000+ devices, your devices will be supported).

Thank you for the heads up! I always assumed Z-Wave was pretty standard across the board, but your insight has prompted me to start investigating further. I’ll make sure to thoroughly check the supported device list and app store for Homey to ensure compatibility with my specific devices. It’s bette…

I have used Vera elsewhere and transitioned quite a similar large setup from Indigo a few years ago. My advice would be to migrate one ‘piece’ at a time, keeping both systems running in parallel at least to start with. Also, the advanced flows in Homey are extremely flexible (for me this is the kil…

Hi Jonathan, Regarding the transition to Homey, yes, I suspect I’ll need to run both systems simultaneously for a period to ensure a smooth shift. Thank you for sharing your insights on flow organization within Homey. While I’m not fully acquainted with ‘flows’, I understand the importance of organ…

Claude, I know you’d like to hear user experiences, but here’s what should be possible according to the KB: This article claims 231 to be the max number of z-wave devices @ one Homey: [image] Using Z-Wave devices with Homey Homey supports Z-Wave devices manufactured by a wide range of…

I’ve compiled a list of all the Z-Wave devices I currently use in my Vera setup, which you can find below: Aeotec… AL001…Touch panel Aeotec… DSC06106… Smart Energy Switch Aeotec… DSC17103… Micro double switch Aeotec… DSC18103… Micro switch Aeotec… DSC19103… Micro dimmer v2 Aeotec… KeyFobGen…Ke…

[image] Fouclo: Where can I find reliable information about the compatibility of these devices with Homey These are all apps which support 1 or more zwave devices. You could use the search function to check for every individual model: https://homey.app/en-nl/apps/browse/#filter?connectivity…

It seems like the concept differs significantly from what I’m accustomed to in Homey. In Vera, a device represents a physical object, such as a Z-Wave sensor, with attributes, capabilities, and states, often displayed on the GUI. On the other hand, an app in Vera is essentially a program, which may …

From what you say, I think a device is very similar @ Homey. A Homey app is like the interface / driver for a (set of) specific device(s), and it also provides for the flow cards. A ‘flow’ is a sort way of GUI programming. The platform provides for standard flowcards, and the app developer can add…

Ok I searched homey.app , and for example if I don’t see an ‘app’ on that list for my Enerwave ZWN-SC7 7 button Scene controller: https://venus-user-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_static/zwave/switch_dimmer/enerwave_sc7_7button_switch.html I am screwed? or are there possibilities out there (beca…
