Hello, What is the default web local login for the web interface portal with Self hosted server? I did login through the IOS app but there is no option to add or modify a local user? Thanks ---

You can create Local Users on [https://my.homey.app](https://my.homey.app) on Settings → Users. ---

Just installed it through docker, worked pretty quick but I cannot seem to login to the webui (locally) Is this intended, planned.. ?? ---

Please first set up the Self-Hosted Server via the mobile app and afterwards create a local user via the Family & Guests menu 😉 ---

@Doekse can’t find this option on iOS mobile app 😕 It just creates an invitation links. ---

@Techniman but I can’t login into web app, and the solution was to create a local user. what I’m missing there? thank you! ---

found it, [https://my.homey.app/](https://my.homey.app/), the menu option is for an existing user and it’s named ‘enabled local user’ ---

I was wondering about this too.. login in was impossible through the local login but once connected through [https://my.homey.app](https://my.homey.app) you can enable it by hitting the 3 dots at the selected user ![Schermafbeelding 2025-12-18 070707](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/2/d2cbb1dfc3032dda165b1ad7e947d6eb0489ba53.png) ---

yes.. you need to enable it once inside homey see above ---

Does this mean that SHS can run without Internet access once in is setup and a local user is created and used? ---

Yeah it’s a bit fuzzy still. When you buy a lifetime license, it should be possible to use it with the web app without any Athom server. The mobile app however, with the Dashboard & Energy tab needs to authenticate to Athom’s servers once in every 2 weeks. I hope Athom is continuing making the “everything local” statement reality. This is what Abe responded with to my question: > [@Homey Self-Hosted Server (Pre release analysis)](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-self-hosted-server-pre-release-analysis/146695/69): > > > [@Homey Self-Hosted Server (Pre release analysis)](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-self-hosted-server-pre-release-analysis/146695/67): > > > > Or, when one pays the €149,- , will one become owner of the software (if that’s possible at all)? > > @Doekse ? > > You get a lifetime license to use the software which still doesn’t tell to me it will run “forever” without needing Athom servers somewhere at certain intervals. ---

Hi, short question, is the webinterface for advanced flows now running local with Homey SHS? Or do I still need the cloud for creating and managing advanced flows? Thanks Peter [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/self-hosted-server-local-web-login/147111.md?page=2)
