Does it truly work offline?
I see its a subscription service but like how often does it connect to the Athom servers to check if my license is still fully active? Does it connect once a day/week/month?
Would a lifetime purchase remove this?
And as others ask if I have a zigbee stick does it support this?
That does not seem to be supported. But there are other options like SMHUB, which runs zigbee2mqtt + Mosquitto. Then you can use the devices with the zigbee2mqtt community plugin. It is even a Thread Border Router (which the Bridge isnāt).
No experience with it though. I use a HA Green + ZBT-2 with zigbee2mqtt and use the devices through the zigbee2mqtt integration in Homey Pro. Would also work with SHS.
My Homey Pro still serves me well enough, so no need to run Homey on my Unraid server. However, Iām much more excited about the promise of supporting Python for the development of Homey apps. That should hopefully make it easier to port Home Assistant integrations
Claude is also pretty good at converting them, however it doesnāt know the Homey app best practices. I have no experience with Python myself (only with JS), so I donāt know how that would work.
First bug: Unable to create a HomeyScript. Everything else is working for now. Except for HomeyScript; when I click on it, nothing happens.
and you ? @Doekse
Gaahh, decisions! I bought a HP23 as a BF deal, but havenāt started using it yet as Iām moving to a new house after new years, so my Homey (Early 2018) is still chugging along.
Canāt decide if I should return the HP23 while I still can and go with SHS⦠Would I be able to use my old homey for the zigbee/zwave/433 protocols?
You can use Webhooks and virtual devices, create a virtual device in Homey SHS and add triggers for turned on, turned off, etc. Then, you can use the āEvent receivedā card from Logic on the Pro, and then perform the action on the device. You can also do it the other way around, so that the SHS will have āEvent receivedā as trigger and change the state of the VD.
Same here, Robert. I recently tried the ānew phoneā trick with an older Android phone, Iāve selected OTBR as default TBR in the HA companion app, but after a night of trial and error, the lock just wonāt pair.
Using my current phone, which prefers Ggl Hub as TBR, it paired just like that
Do I understand HomeyLink correct, but I need to add devices to my old Homey, and then with the HomeyLink the devices will be available in SHS? I was hoping for a smooth integration where devices was added in SHS by using the radios in the old Homey (is this how the Homey Bridge will integrate with SHS?)
Oh noā¦. Iāve been exclusively using āsetup via homey proā does this mean I have two thread networks in my house?
I first put every device in Apple Home, turn on pairing mode, and then add it to Homey Pro via āsetup via homey proā and Iāve noticed lately that a lot of matter devices are going offline in homey, but not Apple.
