  • A bit offtopic. What is the sphere made of? [effect on IR signal, UV resistance, Heat resistance] I know that you went through all these, just curious.
  • How about that the ring seems to project out?
  • Emile I agree with you, every possible hardware bug must be sorted out. In a case of a local manufacturer, the production and the assembly will take at least 4 weeks (experience) because that is not an issue free process. Than you have to handle the…
  • Might sounds like a stupid question: Can we access the web based UI from a remote location (e.g. while on holiday), or we must be on the same wifi/local network?

  • The visual language is good though. Its such a pity that the widgets wont be part of the app.
  • Of course it is a busy time for you. There are more important things to sort out. I was just curious if it is in the pipeline somewhere. Glad to hear it is there. Planning to have a recessed nexus 7.

  • Lovely! A bit sad about the scrapped widgets. However I hope we will have at least toggle widget so we don`t have to open the app to eg.: control the blind. Do you plan to make some sort dashboard layout so to have a visual interface on a wall mount…

  • As I can see they pretty much followed this GUI guideline when they created the interfaces we can see on the published videos and screen shots, etc. So I see no reason why they would not follow it when it comes to the app. I guess now the main focu…

  • Hi Reflow, Please check this, this will give you an idea about the GUI (it is super cool): http://essay.utwente.nl/67146/2/BO_Derksen_Ivo_05-15_Public.pdf

  • I think he meant to spray the HiFi, Xbox or the Homey 2.0... Never mind. Really constructive conversation.

  • I agree with MennoVanDerAat. Maybe the the Homey II could be black. The TV, HIFI, xBox One, remote controls, media player are all black it wont blend in that environment. The kitchen units are white though The brilliantly designed Nexus Q was blac…

  • I believe this is not the typical will homey support X, Y, Z device question. From the beginning it was advertised as homey can support LightwaveRF. Other systems , gateways claiming that they support LightwaveRF they usually mean 433.92MHz devices …

  • If someone triggers the motion sensor during the 4PM – 9 PM time frame that turn on the lights with 100% intensity. If the sensor triggered 9 PM – 11 PM time frame than use 50% intensity. If the MS is triggered during the 11 PM – 5 AM time frame tha…
  • If someone spends more than 2 minutes in the bathroom turn on the ventilation for 10 minutes
  • Also it would be useful to have extended time parameters: - Fortnightly events - Monthly events - Randomised trigger with random time range: If no one at home between 6 PM and 2 AM » Turn on the lights in Random room, Random frequency (15-…
  • Thank you Emile. DLNA is so widely used standard. Why not to support it? Homey has IR transmitter but it cannot have visual contact with the TV and all AV devices, etc. Even if they all would be on the same shelf (that would be a very long one) it w…
  • Of course it is not impossible and I think it would be fairly easy to change the current design of Homey and add this underneath the board. The above round-up reflects the current (and near future) situation.
  • Hi Emile, I appreciate that the software/device support development is not yet finalised but I am getting confused on this. In another post you wrote that Homey does not support DLNA. Most of the WIFI audio systems are UPnP or DLNA systems. So the w…
  • Average consumer: Well... I don’t know. Average consumer: Home automation? Ah! Switching on& off lights and other stuffs. What? 300 euro?! No thanks. And they rather go to buy a console or laptop or whatever. An average consumer won`t see such a…
  • I think it is a very good topic and good questions have been raised. With most of the controllers you can write scripts like that. The difference is not really there. No question that Homey is the best controller if you want to control wide range of…
