Hi to you all.
I am located in Sweden and have a house with 2 ConnectX hubs in 2 separate houses on my land. I bought the Homey with the expectation that the “official app” would cover the most modern product but I can not find a place to connect it.
I have searched the forum without luck, can someone support a poor newstarter with if and how I can connect my 2x L3S to Homey?
Thanks in advance!
I assume you are talkin about Yale Home | Homey.
See this post for instruction how to get support: [APP] Yale Home - Home security at your fingertips (EMEIA).
Drenso is the company maintaining the app on behalf of Yale/Assa Abloy.
If the wifi hubs are configured to connect to the same subnet Homey is connected to, like, 192.168.1.x, and the locks are connected to one of those hubs, Homey should be able to find the locks.
However, I’d like to mention to never assume “it should work” with Homey, always search the homey.app store for an indication of supported devices. (I know you’ve searched the forum, which is also useful next to searching tge app store);
On the app pages, you’ll find links to contact developers, issue trackers (Github f.i.) and dedicated forum topics.
Often it’s possible to discuss with the app devs, and also to request for an unsupported device to be added to the app. Zero guarantees though.
Is that a condition, wanting to use only an “official” app?
The “Official” tag doesn’t say anything about “supporting all the brand’s smart home devices” and “what a user considers to be the most modern product”.
A part of these apps only appear to be present just to say “yeah supported by Homey”.
Imho in many cases community apps are functioning better, have (way) more features, and are more actively supported.
Which leads to my question to you:
Did you try any of the other Doorman / Yale apps as well?
PS
Maybe you mean something else, but I found ConnectX to be archived, Apple/Google app downloads are unavailable:
Strange, since they are still sold on Bol.com
Maybe it moved to the regular Yale mobile app with an update? I don’t know though because I don’t have any Yale devices.
Most of the community ones are for alarm company integrations, and I am not a customer of verisure, sector etc.
The connect X bridge is the one bundled with the locks from Yale.
After trying 999 times I logged into the Web app, and voila! It logged in nicely!
So, that was my solution!
