Unboxing / First impression of Homey

HansieNL

When I first played with Homey aI was a bit disappointed that not everything was working as shown in the promo video.
Today I like how it works and Homey has given me a lot of fun yet.
Fw 0.10 sucks, but I hope new version will be better.

Stick to Fibaro so you can always buy a Fibaro Home Center if Homey fails to deliver.

2 - there aren't many stable firmware releases so you have to use the experimental ones. 

You really don't *have to* use the latest experimental version. I'm still on the latest stable and have no problems with my current setup/devices. It's not that extensive but it does the job for the moment.

I have the feeling that a lot of people think that an experimental version just adds some new features that the stable doesn't have.

It's kind of true that is adds features. But it comes at a risk. A risk everybody knows when the check the experimental box.
And if they don't i'm not getting the point of buying a homey for automation of a rock! (living under...)

Yes, I meant that people think it only adds new features. But you also get bugs.
