Will the new Homey Pro get a new app as well, or will the app be updates? Much left to be desired in the app. 🙂 ---

> [@phusebox](#): > > Will the new Homey Pro get a new app as well You probably already have an updated app that also supports the new Homey Pro (Early 2023), but the version with the second-last bugfixes will be available to the world the day you receive your New Homey Pro. > [@phusebox](#): > > or will the app be updates? Yes… Or we get an new app between now and Christmas … any any year. That could have been the hidden message in the AMA video somewhere, Or we completely misinterpreted Emiles Laugh… ---

Hi, I hope this statement is big joke ??? I buy the new homey pro only if I can import all settings and data with one click from the Early 2019 Homy Pro, otherwise you push me to find another solution. ![05-01-2023_16-12-53](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/c/8cd33f5511c7e05a0326d13b00e4cffdd74753ea.png) ---

They haven’t updated that FAQ in a while, the latest [blog post](https://homey.app/en-us/blog/christmas-development-blog-homey-pro-early-2023/) has better information. > # Software > > **Migrations** — As promised, we prioritised transferring setting from your current Homey Pro. Good news, because we’ve successfully restored a backup of a previous generation Homey Pro to the new Homey Pro. 🎉 Unfortunately Z-Wave proved to be more difficult than anticipated, so this requires a bit more work. And of course, Zigbee is still on our To-do list. ---

And it says “not **yet** supported” and “we’re working on it” Don’t take the proposed ‘solution’ too seriously 🙃 And the link of that latest blog post is [right above your post](https://community.homey.app/t/the-new-homey-pro-ask-me-anything/70378/357)… 😉 ---

Great news that migrating to the new Pro works, including Z-wave and Zigbee devices. That is awesome: > **[January Development Blog — Homey Pro (Early 2023)](https://homey.app/en-us/blog/january-development-blog-homey-pro-early-2023/)** The requirement to manually repair each Zigbee device isn’t a big deal, it would have been much worse to have to re-pair all of them, given that many are hidden in walls and such. ---

> [@mroek](#): > > The requirement to manually repair each Zigbee device isn’t a big deal, it would have been much worse to have to re-pair all of them, given that many are hidden in walls and such. I’m pretty sure they mean “re-pair”. ---

Ah, of course, you’re right. 😢 To hyphenate or not to hyphenate… In that case, it will be a real pain. Not sure what the migration did for Zigbee, then. Just preserve the identity of the devices, so that can be correctly re-associated after re-pairing? ---

> [@mroek](#): > > Just preserve the identity of the devices, so that can be correctly re-associated after re-pairing? That’s what it sounds like, yes. It’s something that also works with the current Homey, in case Zigbee devices fall out of the network: re-pair them without first removing them from Homey. The device has a unique ID that Homey associates with its device entries, so when the device is paired it’s recognised again. ---

The only think which prevents me from ordering new Homey is the fact that few of apps are still SDK2 only ☹ Some of them are even confirmed abandoned, some of them are promised to be updated… ```auto "Xiaomi Mi Home": null, "TP-Link Smart Devices": null, "Broadlink": null, "Face++": null, "Google TTS": null, "WebOS Plus": null, "Mi Homey": null, "Roborock": null, "Homey Heating Scheduler": null, "Advanced Scheduler": null, "< group >": null, "Homey Community Store": null ``` ---

Unfortunately the Roborock seems to be abandoned. I think I will keep my old Homey Pro and see if it can be solved by using the Homesh Controller/Satellite apps and keep old Roborock on the old Homey. ---

In case you didn’t know, here’s a pretty accurate topic: [[Homey Pro (Early 2023)] App unsupported list](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-pro-early-2023-app-unsupported-list/70324) Which also lists some alternative apps in SDK3 version. TTS, WebOS, \< group \>, Face++ and HCS are announced to be updated. You can help by trying to find developers who’d be interested to take over (an) app(s), or to help updating it to SDK3 ---

I’m well aware, yet the list is not full and all the devs have been already contacted. Indeed some promised updates yet still some were abandoned as I stated already. ---

Did the developer @Justin share any reason with you ? He seems not to be responding at all but nobody actually knows why, in the thread he was trying to help and support and then suddenly went off. Last activity was 1 year ago. … and unfortunately it seems it’s not related to Homey only, eg. he updated last beautiful Drone photos on Instagram ([https://www.instagram.com/jh.dronegraphy/](https://www.instagram.com/jh.dronegraphy/)) last time also the same time his last posts appear here. I hope he is alright. ;-( ---
