Some time ago I backed the PhoneHome project on KickStarter, I got these mainly in future anticipation of Apple unlocking the NFC chip on the newer iPhones. I don't actually have any other NFC equipped device, so these are just sitting around waitin…

Pretty cool idea. Now that CES is over, I hope they'll have more time for development & answering emails!

Stefan said: I am in contact with someone from them over Linkedin, but they just referred to their Android SDK for now. I indicated what we are looking for instead after that, so let's hope . Thank you Stefan. It's much appreciated!!!!!!

Voted months ago, but seeing the lack of any form of communication from Shortcut Labs, I doubt that 120 people will convince them...

jorden said: The Homey Plex app is best compared to a 'remote control' to control the Plex app that is on your TV, I guess. So if you can't use Plex on your tv now, Homey won't solve that. Perhaps a Chromecast is a good, cheap solution to that…

@mruiter I asked veeeeeery nicely! It was both questions regarding changing shipping address + customs, and also a technical question. First reply was 9 days, then 2 weeks for 2 more emails, and to my last email (sent 11.12.15) they still haven't …

@Stefan that's great news! I'm really happy that you want to try this. Just a heads up, they take about 2 weeks to reply to emails, just so you know. They have a pretty good product, but horrible support (from my own experience). I'd love to be able…

But anyway, as of me, I live in Prague, and I really don't have too much money to spend, but I have invested in this: * Solight 433Mhz plugs (cheapest option) - $25 for 3 * 433Mhz LEDs (recommended by Emile) $17 for controller * IR LEDs (complete…

blusser said: @MarcoWijk , Great idea, since it could (IMHO it should) be a general function to be supported from homey, so maybe the guys at Athom can program such a feature. The "carkit" (maybe we should call it home(y)kit ) which receives …

tunf said: Now that on the apps site there is also a list of supported hardware (many thanks, hopefully a start not the final list), i'm wondering for woonveilig, is the central still needed or will sensors etc. be able to connect to the homey …

@mruiter that's really nice of you. Pulling for the team. I really appreciate that. For me (now that I think of it) there would be a workaround, because I have an android tablet that's permanently mounted as a IP Cam screen, so I could run the fli…

Jacob said: Unfortunaterly I'm no programmer either. However I have managed to add several mysensors IO to my vera3. I believe if somebody programs a my sensors gateway for Homey it will bring a connection to a huge amount of home information a…

I've tried some Arduino stuff in the past, and writing code is really not my strong suite. I've never actually created anything off that site, but I absolutely LOVE the idea, and I really like that site. Hoping to pull myself together and actually c…

I have a few, Customs added one month to shipping for me in the CZ. Nevertheless, I have a few set up, and a few sitting there waiting. If only I could pair them with Homey, would be great. Still not fond of a 433mhz ugly doorbell

Pete said: Official announcement: http://www.wi-fi.org/discover-wi-fi/wi-fi-halow I think this will have the same response as HomeKit questions..... Definitely not retrofitted, maybe possibly in a Homey v2... Homeys are already shipping,…

Stefan said: I have a call with them this week for getting access to their official API. It all depends on the Business Case that they perceive with Homey. I'll do my best Good luck!

You're right, not the nicest presentation, but it does give inspiration! thanks!

I think you guys who are interested can look at this topic, there seems to be a bit more vivid discussion there.

@jovink Yeah, I know what you mean. iOS background apps have to be running, I find that a bit annoying sometimes because I like to keep things clean and several times a day I close all running apps... With the 'danger'; I guess that's the same with…
