I don’t mean that Homey specifically needs an “official” app, but I think (based on nothing 😅) the Tuya community app is one of the more popular/most used apps for Homey. So what if that didn’t exist, or would stop working?

Seems like Tuya (based hardware) is used a lot, new people are still coming to the forum to ask for help with the not working “official” Tuya app for their Pro or Bridge.
