Smart window coverings by Coulisse.

DISCOVER MOTION BLINDS
MOTION Blinds is a groundbreaking window covering automation solution that makes motorized blinds available to everyone. The blinds are super easy to install and can be operated from anywhere, in any way. Discover the endless options to find the solution that fits your requirements.

SMART WINDOW COVERINGS
Smart window coverings automatically adapt to your daily rhythm and to natural elements, such as temperature and daylight. Even when you are away from home. This makes your smart home safer, more comfortable and more energy efficient. Discover the endless possibilities of MOTION Blinds.

USAGE
To connect your MOTION devices to Homey, you must have a WIFI bridge in your local home network that can control up to 30 different blinds. (This app is not for Matter and cannot do RF communication without the bridge). The bridge is configured with the blinds you need by using the official MOTION Blinds app. Homey communicates with one or more of these bridges to control the devices connected to them. You can also link the blinds to a remote. Note that remotes are a useful addition to MOTION devices but cannot be added directly to the bridge or Homey. The remote controls the blind directly, and the blind reports what is happening back to the bridge and Homey.

In order for Homey to be allowed to send commands to the bridge it needs a key. The key can be configured in the Homey MOTION app settings. You will find instructions there on how to obtain the key.

EVE MOTIONBLINDS
The new Eve MotionBlinds product line is also supported by this app, provided you connect them using the WIFI bridge as there is currently no support for Matter in Homey.

AVAILABILITY
Motion products are developed by Coulisse and can be found in window coverings from various other manufacturers across the world. ROBBshop features a DIY kit to convert a normal rollerblind into a Motion powered smart blind. You can also find Motion controls in products from Zonnelux, BSL raambekleding, Smartblinds.nl, Omniablinds.com, Kwantum, Hornbach and others. You can find a store near you at https://motionblinds.com/stores/.

It was made in my spare time, sponsored by ROBBShop.
Coulisse generously donated TDBU blinds to develop and test support for these.
@TedTolboom kindly adopted it because I am no longer able to support it.
