Ahhh well, they are cheap enough to experiment with, thanks for the help!

Sorry for the Dutch, forgot... I have that installed and it works fine for from Sonoff devices that are NOT setup to use the standard app. My issue is that I am unable to add them to Homey after they have been setup. The aim is to be able to use …

Get a 35 euro Google Home Mini and use it as voice input. You'll never be tempted to use Homey's microphone again. Hit rates are as close to 100% as possible.

Again get a Google Home Mini and you can speak from 10 meters away with almost perfect recognition. I bought 3 for 66 euro in Germany today. It's the best gift you can get for your Homey.

Thanks Koen, my heart rate has gone down to manageable levels. the text on that page was not totally clear on the matter. After readinmg the Dutch version it was more understandable!
-
Placement of the Homey is very critical as it seems to be suffering a lot when it gets reflected sounds. The best advise is to get a Google Home Mini and use that to talk to Homey, 99% correct understanding for just a few dollars. And besides a sui…

Pretty similar. But do add a different battery if you by the Coolcam, the ones they used in my devices are the worst of the worst and one heated up until it started to vent.
-
You will never know if these if these are any good. And if you get hardware that comes directly from China and is not regulated or checked in any way you simply take a risk. Let's be honest Neo Coolcam is not a world brand and it seems to take a lot…

You seriously got your bomb shelter zwaved?

Just take really good care of youre batterys and all wil be ok. That is NOT a fair comment. If the design is okay the battery housing is separated from the mounting, in fact that is mandatory for EEC labels etc. And it was the case …
-
What was the brand of the battery in it? While I am willing to buy neo coolcam I would NEVER use the batteries they ship. They go directly to the chemical waste disposal.
-
Will run fine on 5 volts btw.

Bram said: We know that for some users the speech recognition is not working very well. There can be multiple reasons why it is not working properly (accent, background noise, position in your home). For those people we tell them to use the sma…

That issue has been raised many times. It's unfortunate because Homey is good enough without voice control. I wish we could just simply remove it from the services and use some of the resources for other things.
-
Is there any reason the 24 and 25 devices won't respond to commands? They work if I move them in the same room as the Homey. Mod break: moved question to Neo app main discussion topic
-
They won't be able to fix it unfortunately. I think we simply have to accept that voice control is not a feasible option for the majority of people. As we have seen a number of software updates (and the fact it works fine using your phone) I think w…

Thanks!

Attaboy!

Damn.... that will be a complex fix for a simple problem. I use this to set the volume of Sonos and it really does not like the volume set to 3.0000000004. The Execute MathJs Expresion accepts the formula "round(WAARDE * 10) / 10" but do I replac…

Normally not the one to ask..... but how's progress towards a new stable version?

Of course could not wait... How did you select the radio channel in an activity? I got the radio station as favorite but I see no way to select that.

I do have a Harmony...Great idea, will experiment this weekend. Thanks!

Personally I have not seen significant improvements in speech, IR and 433 since release. I am pretty much convinced the limits are in the hardware and will not be overcome.
