Sorry to be a little off topic; but this alarm idea sounds intriguing. If I set up an alarm with Homey, do I set it up in a flow just by picking a sound to be played from some predefined examples? The implementations of this are of course tremendous…

Emile said: Jeroen has done great, great work regarding the low-level functionalities of Homey. That's mostly done so he'll continue working on the iOS app pretty soon! We hope to have a beta somewhere I late the end of January / begin of Februar…

Jacob said: However I am always aware of an old saying, the Swiss army knife can do everything but is good at nothing. Very nice saying. Guess you're right, then again, a device with capabilities such as Homey... You never know. Still th…

Jacob said: @tommyjay. Altough i dont like to be the dissapointing person, I think you are thinking way to complicated. Homey is designed as a home automation controller and the added value are the extensive communication possibilities. It is not…

If I may give my two cents... Not that long ago I received my CarAware, which is an iBeacon with a very simple iOS app. Basically, if I get in my car, I get a notification (shortcut) to launch music or Waze, and when I get out of the car, it remembe…

Damn, I'm following that thread and still missed it.. Thanks though!

I'm 99.999% sure that this was already mentioned in another topic, nevertheless +1.

Emile said: Basically, we'll ship as fast as we can make them at the start of next year. Look, it was our first run at the production & self-test :-) Currently making it better (and faster, mainly) so we can produce them at lig…

I'd say ask that question here..

Just got it in the mail today. I'm wishing you good luck on getting it to work! Can't wait to plug mine in! Now Just waiting on Homey!

@Reflow Oh wow! This is actually news to me! Since I read that the new remote used BT, I guess I was ignorant and didn't realize that the new ATV still had an IR sensor! Thanks for the article!

Emile said: As for light pack, should definitely be possible, but I'm gonna leave that to the community. Well then I hope someone will be willing to do that!

@Reflow even though I have a first gen chrome cast, yesterday I ordered my apple TV 4, can't wait to get it. I'd also be happy for Homey to be able to control it, but the reason I mentioned it was because unless Athom finds a way to control the TV t…
-
@Reflow If I'm not mistaken, it has been previously mentioned that Homey won't be HomeKit compatible. I also remember Emile mentioning that he wouldn't want to personally 'hack' devices on behalf of Athom, which also leaves out the possibility of H…

Hi @RobinVanKekem, I think we may have talked about this in a different topic here already. I looked into them, even contacted robbshop about it... Even though they are pretty expensive for me, I would be able to bite the bullet before I move (right…

This has been a big reason why I haven't yet adopted 'smart' lights, and I'm still not sure on how to 'properly' do it. I would be happiest if there was a small wireless 'thing' to put behind my lightswitch, that would work as a multiway switch, bu…

Well this faketv thing actually looks pretty good at a decent price. Now, All I have to do is make my own and make homey turn it on when I'm gone! +1

Since I'm a bit on a budget at the moment, I was thinking something like this could work...
-
Thanks for pointing this out @Spawnreaper. Almost forgot to think about Homey integration for that. I have the same, and because LightPack doesn't go to sleep/shut off when my macbook does, I've gotten so annoyed with it before I found a UnifiedRemo…

@Compadre I've ordered 10 Qubes, they're expected to ship in June. They have said that they will include an API and also plan on IFTTT.

BasPost said: Will it be ready when Homey ships? Emile said some time ago that the Android app will be first, and iOS will follow some time in the first half of next year I think. But us Apple people can still use the webUI.

Floris said: Is the iOS app going to include a widget for Notification center? +1. Also, I don't have a 6s, but I can imagine that Force Touch would be pretty convenient. Of course, not to mention Apple Watch

Well you know, you could just ask Homey to do it without even touching your phone...

captkiwi said: But than again why use the MI app if homey can do it for you. I guess the question remains; Can Homey communicate with these Zigbee devices...
-
@MarkVanWinden said: Also, I cant login by my virtual homey so can test things out.. The virtual homey has been shut down. More here. As for the other question, think you're gonna have to ask @Emile.
-
I guess the tvOS app would follow soon after iOS, if Athom would even be interested in this path?
-
Even though the app store already has an app for CoCo/KaKu plugs, I've wondered the same thing, you can find my question and a good reply here. So I'm sure that your blinds can also be taught the same way. I wanted to reference a video of Homey lear…

But now really, Since you guys have a full office of cool gadgets by now, I'm sure that these real comparisons/reviews would be great. I know it sounds weird to have a hardware company reviewing other companies hardware, but your first hand perspect…
