The distinction is “Homey Ball” and “Homey Puck”, not “White Sphere”  
😉😂🤣😂

But how do we call the Homey Pro Mini? Homey Cube? Or is that too confusing?

**Edit** : @Doekse won, Homey Squircle it is!

😃 😃 😃

🤔

Asked a friend:

_If you’re already in the “shape-based nickname” lane with **Ball** and **Puck** , you’ll want something that feels consistent—compact, physical, maybe even a bit playful._

_“Mini” suggests small, lightweight, maybe even cuter. A few directions that fit your naming pattern:_

\*\* **Homey Pebble** – keeps the rounded vibe, just smaller and more refined than a Ball\*  
\*\* **Homey Button** – small, simple, something you can place anywhere\*  
\*\* **Homey Nugget** – playful, tiny but still powerful\*  
\*\* **Homey Pod** – fits the smart-device ecosystem naming style\*  
\*\* **Homey Dot** – emphasizes minimal size (kind of like the smallest unit)\*  
\*\* **Homey Chip** – leans into compact tech power\*  
\*\* **Homey Mini Puck** – if you want to stay tightly tied to the Pro naming\*

_If you want the cleanest continuation of your logic, **Homey Pebble** is probably the most natural evolution:_  
_ **Ball → Puck → Pebble** (shrinking, still physical, still tactile)._

So, let’s start a survey! 😃

`https://homey.link/homey-portal-setup` also related for sure. It just leads to get.homey.app, but other URLs return 404 so it does exist

Let’s wait for the next Homey Android app update 😉

And the update is there! It didn’t contain anything new though.

Only in the drawable-mdpi-v4, I noticed this filename:

```auto
shared_img_setupportal_portalframe.png

```

Just a black image though:

 ![shared_img_setupportal_portalframe](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/5/f/5f9523dd697916ce5b084ff5cef93abece8a8b73.png)

And the setup videos are still Homey Pro mini placeholders.

I did find something interesting:

```auto
r1 = {'home': 'Home', 'devices': 'Apparaten', 'device': 'Apparaat', 'zones': 'Zones', 'zone': 'Zone', 'flows': 'Flows', 'flow': 'Flow', 'mood': 'Mood', 'moods': 'Moods', 'energy': 'Energy', 'dashboards': 'Dashboards', 'apps': 'Apps', 'app': 'App', 'users': 'Familie en gasten', 'insights': 'Insights', 'insight': 'Insight', 'ledring': 'Led-ring', 'settings': 'Instellingen', 'alarms': 'Wekkers', 'logic': 'Variabelen', 'more': 'Meer', 'close': 'Sluiten', 'support': 'Ondersteuning', 'feedback': 'Feedback geven', 'backups': 'Back-ups', 'premium': 'Premium', 'popular': 'Populair', 'account': 'Account', 'bridge': 'Bridge', 'homeyPremium': 'Homey Premium', 'developer': 'Ontwikkelaar', 'internal': 'Intern', 'employee': 'Werknemer'};

```

Specifically the last 2 options: “Internal” and “Employee”. These appear to be options that would show up in the More tab, but probably only if you have the `employee` role (just like how the Developer Tools website restricts the Push Notifications and Review Apps tabs). Maybe I can install it on an Android emulator and modify the response to give my user the “Employee” role and see if there’s anything interesting in that menu.

Good to see that Athom is acknowledging @smarthomesven’s Hercule Poirot-skills when it comes to product launches 😀.

@Doekse: You’re welcome to share that bag of breadcrumbs. No need to keep that private 😉.

I don’t see any new domains. At least not those following the standard pattern.

I actually found the image as well a few hours before the launch because the filename on the CDN was predictable (based on the other launches). The blog article was still private, but images are never private on Wordpress if you know (or can predict) the filename and the month it was uploaded in (09 in this case).

But that post got removed by Athom.

I also tried some other methods to get details on the Homey Portal, but those failed. I won’t disclose those since I might be able to use them again in the future 😉
