There are couple of facts worth mentioning. The Neeo had cover on it. It wasnt just a bare top as in the early Homey demos. The final top might look black (more like a very dark purple) in the visual spectrum but transparent in the IR spectrum. Most…

I think recently this topic is more about the delivery of the first batch, which Athom has in their office. And I believe we will be all excited to see the first reviews, screenshots, videos a bit more insight of the software. And not to beg anymore…

kickstarter update

Exactly! They need to catch up with the software side. Without that it would be just a nice white ball. I guess thats the reason why the first batch is on hold.

Everyone will get it till Christmas! 13 Months must be adequate. The guys long enough in the queue, know how to view the expected delivery dates. I havent seen the old veterans like MarcoF and others on the forum for a while. Prime example is the…

Perfect. Thanks Emile. That is all what we need to avoid parallel developments, also will help potential customers to make the right decision. Deferentially it is not something to use taking you accountable as some people understood. Have a lovely …

I came across with this site before. If nest is there as a home automatization controller, than Echo, SmarThings, etc should be there too. I believe the real competitors are: Zipato, Homee Cube, RaspberryPI solutions. There is also other projects l…

Apology for the misunderstanding. Nothing personal My bad, actually the first batch is around 20 pieces as some guy have upgraded since the Kikstarter campaign. From the kickstarter update:"about 20 will be sent to the Super backers and Early Bat…

Then you have to wait a few more months. How many? 2 months or 22 months? You dont know without a development roadmap. Also how do you know what apps Athom is going to release in the next few months? Without that knowledge you dont know i…
-
You know what I meant. Officially should be shipped by next week. Athom is not dealing with the assembly it is done by Global electronics. Irrelevant for us not irrelevant for Athom. And the software development not irrelevant to any of us, with…

They have ordered more than the Kickstarter and Pre-order. The rest will go to retailer if I remember well. (Have been mentioned couple of times that the preorder price is below or equals the retail price. So it will go to retail.)

ReneBoeije said: As Emile stated before, ther is no launch date... Homey is available when hardware is ready. First Homeys will be shipped next week.

As I mentioned that issues/bugs can pushes the timeline. Why you need to change the priorities in the device support during the development? They don`t need to update the roadmap all the time. They have never updated this: However it was still n…
-
Of course if they have to deal with a serious bug that pushes the timeline. Otherwise don`t see why need a flexibility for device support. There should be a set priority. Can you tell for example when Somfy will be supported January, September, 2017?
-
And this is why I have asked to provide a software development roadmap: https://forum.athom.com/discussion/419/ Bit disappointing that still havent received an answer. You might find it annoying, pointless, afraid that if you do one than people wo…

For face recognition you need a camera. I believe Z-wave dont have the bandwidth for that and also the Z-wave devices are generally are low power devices and not designed for constant operation (they just send simple messages periodically, like temp…

You will get the same answer from Athom as from any other developer. It is up to us to find these and report them. PS.: Don`t use Homey for security applications. Does not have battery or 3G/4G module. Of course you can add an external PSU and s…
-
So what is that?? Come on!
-
Otherwise I agree with you. First batch backers should share videos, reviews about homey. The info we get from Athom is limited or they share it with others and we need to dig for those.

He/She should play with the turtle How about making the legs capacitive? If you touch 2 of them than it would do a backup

Wish to import such things from the continent. But it is like importing cars… you can`t register it (not cost effectively).
-
I reckon you are better off with a small tablet, like a second hand Nexus 7. It is also more decorative, easier to recess/semi recess into the wall. According to the Kickstarter video the app will have voice recognition. And hope they will make a ta…

That is really nice Peter. Good job. They only serve large businesses in the UK, they dont sell products for domestic customers.

Mainland America or Europe? Sometimes the folks here pretends that the island is in the middle of the Atlantic ocean or close to American shores.

Apology for the radio silence on my end, I have contacted couple of manufacturers and were waiting for their feedback. Although UK is in Europe most things are quite different on the island: driving on left side, using different sockets, imperial me…

Thank you for the summary. That is a great news. There is some time between the order and the actual start of the production. I hope no issue will surface in the meantime and the guys can focus on the device supports. So does it mean that the 10pcs …

Thank you guys for the great help, getting close to the full picture. rscheers what Vaillant boiler/module do you have, is that module came with boiler or you had to purchase separately? Why the pump of the boiler still works when the target tempera…

Thank you rscheers and thank you JaapPelt for the nice explanation, halving the heating cost is really great. I started to read about the OpenTherm and I can`t find Boiler what uses this interface. I am planning to have either Vaillant or Bosch boil…
