    First of all: Welcome!

    I switched from a HomeWizard to Homey some time back. While HomeWizard has a pretty easy mobile app to quickly turn the lights on or off, but Homey focusus on true automation. This is important to realize when setting up your Homey. Although I missed a good smartphone app at the beginning, once I had the automation set up, I realized I didn't need it anymore. I have a few kaku remotes laying round and of course voice commands!

    I can strongly recommend to add your klik-aan-klik-uit devices directly in Homey. Most of the time, you can also keep them in HomeWizard without any problem. The next step is to add your timers to Homey and remove them from HomeWizard. You will notice that Homey has a lot more things it can check when a timer triggers. Try expending the "AND" column with additional card and conditions to improve the way your house reacts to events.

    After that, you can configure a few flows using voice commands. Use the "contains" card and try to find the keywords which work well. This heavily depends on your pronunciation. As it turns our, "Rolluik" is a lot harder to recognize then "Gordijn" in my case. Add two flows (one for rolluik en one for gordijn) and keep the one which works best. Do similar things with lamp/licht, TV/televisie etc. Don't be afraid to be a bit creative. You can also use moods or conversational phrases as voice commands to set the lights ("OK Homey, Initiate evening program" > Trigger op "Evening" > Turn on the lights, TV and close the blinds).

    I hope this will get you started. I hope you will checking back on the forum regularly to exchange ideas and share your experience.
