  • hmmm... so I have deleted a couple of apps Ive loaded and yet to actually configure and also noticed the harmony hub app has crashed a few times recently so removed that and after another reboot and waiting about 10 mins for it to connect to the clo…
  • I bought them from vesternet. Im using a mac (so safari so I'm not sure theres any chrome extensions to disable). They have them on offer at the moment (I assume as they are not being made anymore) however given they're already a supported product I…
  • Hi, I just bought a bunch of these greenwave sockets having first checked there was an app in the store, however adding one is causing homey to crash . they are detected then the setup app freezes, I get the message homey is not responding and after…
  • talked to suppler ... getting the unit swapped... looks like it dead.
  • thanks, I also found that but its for a different looking device to the one I have and what it says does not seem to work so Im assuming maybe newer devices have different controls. I know the zwave is there because homey found it when I initially…
  • harmony hub can also control e.g. hue , sonos, nest etc. and with the hub extender zwave sensors. etc. the collective package is less than a homey and I would suggest for 90 percent of people (non enthusiasts) use cases will cover everything they ne…
  • Having exchanged few messages with Athom Support the suggestion was get a competitors product , so I have ended up buying a harmony hub and that works fine, same location same devices, no issues ........ disappointing as if there had been any appare…
  • create an Aaron said: Hi @sprut I wanted to add a new lamp to my HomeKit. It is the milight gu10 rgb+cct. It works almost perfectly. Dimming, color, on/off with siri all work as expected. The only thing that does not work is putting it back …
  • Use virtual devices as buttons which appear on HomeKit and your phone becomes a remote (if the homey IR will work for you at all) 
  • ongoing IR problems here too... it learns, can't control devices consistently. still waiting for suggestions that will make a difference. Clearly given volumes of issues theres something significantly wrong. I do wonder with multiple IR transmitters…
  • It would be super cool if any of these things enabled control of the Apple TV from homey but I think that needs Bluetooth (at least that’s home Logitech do it and I’m reluctant to buy ANOTHER controller for 100 gbp) 
  • well apart from lights Ive added a virtual tv which was basically an on off switch which is used to trigger flows i.e. tv on = setup tv , sound, and dim lights if its the right time of day.... and TV off means turn it all off and raise lights (if ne…
  • thanks for the help, I can see how to get the event and some parameters into Homey, but how can I then make those becomes something scheduled? ie. the event in the diary would have a date and time associated with it somehow I need the action to happ…
  • For me I just had to goto home app on Siri , add the homey when it asks for the barcode scan image of the one above and all my devices appeared .. then you can tap on them/adjust from home app, put them into rooms/groups and ensure they’re named som…
  • Thanks , I looked at that but I couldn’t see how it could do what I wanted , just seemed like you could use it to tell you about events rather than launch specified actions related to the content ... unless I’ve missed a trick which is entirely poss…
  • Just want to say thanks to both for the home kit app... combined with virtual device I can create switches in home kit that trigger flows and automation. (in addition to all my devices now accessible to home kit automations too) really cool and some…
  • Hi, Thanks for the replies. Homey turned up yesterday, Im giving the own tracks a go but the battery drain isn't great. I can ask Homey where I am now and impressively it reads out my address just incase I forget where I am
  • Thanks, so are there any other ways of passively detecting individual users presence at home to enable specific user based flows? My example was just that , not necessarily one I’d do but the idea of knowing who is there based on them arriving in th…
