    Thank you for testing! And nice that you didn't have any troubles getting it to work. I remember that you said somewhere; "Zone numbers? Ik have no idea what those are!"... so, I kept that in mind during development... Any "normal/non tech" user should be able to handle it. Enjoy!

    I have sent a Pull Request to Athom for the tado app including info about what I have done.

    I also have asked them to wait a few days with an actual app-store update.
    For now the responses look very nice, but I like to see some more responses from users who did a CLI-install from GitHub.... just to be sure that noone will have a cold winter and Athom has to start a rescue project. :grin:

    Just curious... Did you already test the GitHub version? :blush:

    hi @OpenMind_NL no, I didn't. B/c I am not (so) familiar with installing apps outside of the Athom app store. So, although I am reaaaaally curious, I'd like to wait until it's been launched there... :(

    No problem! :smile:
    At least I did not get any negative responses yet... So I guess it wont take too much time before it appears in the app-store.

    Testing went very well. I don't have found any issues. I am very happy with the app at the current state.
    I just have one request, an enhancement.

    When the Tado smart thermostat knob is switched of manually to the status OFF, this is not reflected in the app.
    On this moment I am using Homeyscript in combination of Better Logic to test if Tado is is in the OFF state.

    Thanks for testing... and good point! I assumed that the thermostat would indicate a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius when the heating is switched off (Frost protection). But that does not seem to be the case.

    I make a note to look at this... just like keeping a changed device name after rebooting Homey.
  • phil_sphil_s Member
    My device was today unreachable ( broken chain Symbol ).
    restart the app under settings fixed this issue. Never had this in the Last week. 

    So have a look on it. But all seems good After restart. 

    Just as an info

    I noticed the same over here. According to Insights, data stopped changing at about 11:30 in the morning. Everything went to normal at about 15:20, when I noticed it and restarted the app.
    But... at the same moment I noticed that the Netatmo Weatherstation device was offline also... and I thought it might be something in my network, so I rebooted my modem/router....

    But yes... let's keep an eye on it.
    Maybe tado is not happy with our lurking and sent some data to make the apps crash  >:) :D

  • RobinVanKekemRobinVanKekem Member
    It didn't crash because you restarted the app instead of starting it, right?
    It might ended the connection?
  • YaotzinYaotzin Member
    So is the app published yet? I can't seem to get it to work
  • phil_sphil_s Member
    Now i have a Second smartthermostat in my kitchen as a second zone. (Zone 2). 

    All works great! Thank you @OpenMind_NL

    I offered Athom a Pull Request more than a week ago... and 5 days ago I told them that there were no negative responses so I asked them to update... but no replies...

    The only working version is curently available for CLI install at: https://github.com/OpenMindNL/be.geekness.tado
    We're waiting for Athom to update the app-store version.
  • 2Be2Be Member
    I installed the Tado app too. Works great for about 5 days now.

    Athom ask on slack if you @OpenMind_NL could take the ownership of the app from athom. Emile asked that on slack today.

    Great work on the new app OpenMind_NL! Can I install v0.7.0 without using the Homey app store?

    I got an email from tado october 26th saying it now works with Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple Homekit. Ofcourse I thought "No Homey?!". Is there perhaps a new API available because of these new clients?

    You can install v0.7.0 with the Homey developer tools (CLI)
    https://github.com/OpenMindNL/be.geekness.tado
    .
    But... My guess is that the actual app-store update wont take long anymore (few days max?). They received my Pull Request more than a week ago... and it is assigned for further 'processing'.
    https://github.com/athombv/be.geekness.tado/pull/1
    For some reason they seem to be very busy at Athom (christmas season?), so it takes a little longer.

    BTW: I don't know anyhting about a new API. As far as I know, the current API v2 is from about 6 months ago. Maybe 'the others' also use this same data and needed 6 months to build their compatibility?

    The app-store BETA version has been updated...

    I noticed that the version number has been changed to v0.7.1, but there are no technical differences with my v0.7.0

    NOTE: The stable version is not ussable for most people! Use the Beta!

    I did a test-install from the shop version 0.7.1 over my 0.7.0 development version... No problem. It works fine :)
