Tuya automatic litter boxes are detected in Homey Pro, but no functions are available

Hi everyone,

I have two automatic litter boxes connected to the Tuya app. They are sold under two different brands, Zedar and Bome, but they seem to be basically the same device.

I was able to add Tuya to Homey Pro using the user code, and Homey successfully detects both litter boxes, as well as my robot vacuum.

The problem is that the litter boxes appear in Homey without any usable functions or capabilities. So it is nice that they are visible, but I cannot actually do anything with them in Homey.

My goal is to connect these litter boxes through Homey and then make them available in Google Home as well. I also tried linking them directly to Google Home, but no supported devices are found there either.

So Homey seems like the best solution, but I am stuck on one point:

How can I get the functions/capabilities of these litter boxes to show up in the Homey app?

Has anyone managed to get Tuya-based litter boxes like these working properly in Homey?
Is this something that can be fixed with the right driver or mapping, or is it simply a limitation of the Tuya integration?

Thanks in advance.

You can use these Flow cards to control the device (add it to Homey as an Unknown device):

Litter boxes aren’t the most common devices as you could recon, please create an issue on the GitHub repo for the official Tuya app. Or reach out to the developer via the support/suggest options in the Homey App Store. That way the developers can have a look what they can do.
