  • Waar woon je ongeveer? (plaats lijkt mij voldoende ;-) Bijna heel ons huis is voorzien van Philips Hue lampen en dat bevalt ons prima. Samen met wat Fibaro devices (schakelaars en sensoren) icm de Homey werkt doorgaans goed. Ik zeg doorgaans, want …
  • Mathijs said: As 'RC' indicates that all features are included and that if no errors are found the build will be released as stable I feel it is no more than fair to doubt Athoms claims.  I think it is time to accept that the hardware contains…
  • hnijveen said: Reading slack, it is nor gonna happen. This week, possibly not even in two weeks. For the last 3 weeks 1.2 is somewhere up in the air, promissing media, and some. I do fully understand Athom is delivering at their best capabiliti…
  • stamplus said: My LG WebOS TV (also a 55UB850V) needs to be connected to WiFi to let it be controlled externally. When it's conneted by cable, it can't. For the apps on the TV itself, it doesn't matter if its connected through WiFi or LAN-cabl…
  • Forget about this app. It is not working and should be removed from the app list (see comments on the app page, including mine). This app is only for window dressing to let people think the homey can control your LG Web OS TV, but in fact it is not …
  • Bumblez said: It's not a matter of the developer being "too lazy"... it's a matter of priorities, as previously indicated by (eg) caseda! Let me make a very simple comparison case: If you would put this to vote: - Let Athom spend time on fixi…
  • Hm, a bit, no more than a bit, childish to say Edge is not working, is not a browser. Wow, really? Is this the level we want to discuss on this forum? Is this going into the same childish direction as Windows vs Linux, really? Please people, grow up…
  • mruiter said: Browsers aren't supported. (you also see this as a message on the main screen) and Use the homey desktop app. Because then everybody wants all 34 populair browsers supported. Just use Chrome if you don't want the app.  And please…
  • My situation is that the sensor, actuator and Homey are in the same room only a few meters apart. (and still about 3 seconds delay)
  • So, also here we can conclude: for some there is no issue and for others there is an issue. The story of Homey and very difficult for Athom I guess. I can only conclude that I and other users experience a delay of about 3 seconds. For some situatio…
  • I guess this is 'normal' for Homey. I have the same issue. I have a Fibaro motion sensor and a fibaro switch (both z-wave plus) When I walk into the room, it takes about 3 seconds before the light is switched on (and after the sensor indicates it de…
  • glijie said: At the same time you can't say that homey isn't reliable because it isn't for you and those others who has issues with it. There will be alway someone with issues wich will be mentioned on this or another forum. OK, let m…
  • mruiter said: Homey can be reliable enough. To say it isn't is just so small minded. . Excuse me? Small minded? Do you even know what it means? because the way you use it doesn't make sense at all. I have a Homey and I use it for sever…
  • Don't use Homey for security. The reason is simple; Homey is not reliable enough for that. I use it to switch on the outside Hue lights and use the sundown trigger e.g. But once in a while the lights are not on. And sometimes the lights in the house…
  • mruiter said: @underground you're welcome to join the discussion on slack. That's also where Emile and Jeroen pop up. You can also pm them personally there.  Thanks. I have been on slack, but I don't like that IRC stuff. I prefer a forum…
  • MHubert said: @KoenMartens  Always so friendly and open for others  @underground please share your concerns and the issues you encounter with homey. Else others (especially @Athom, @Emile, @JeroenVollenbrock) can learn from there customers. …
  • jjtbsomhorst said: Maybe you can create a github issue: https://github.com/athombv/homey/issues fort his.  There are 2 options: 1. People of Athom are not following this forum 2. People of Athom are following this forum. I hope it is …
  • +1 I totally agree. But that might have a huge impact on the existing architecture and existing flow. Maybe a global replace of a device is an acceptable trade-off? (Replace device x with device y)
  • MrDutchfighter said: Ah, you mean a real strongly typed IDE or SDK. That would be awesome indeed. No, not only that, but being able to set breakpoints, add watches, evaluate expressions, edit and continue etc. Right now Visual Studio can…
  • MrDutchfighter said: There are tools for node.js as well. I'm a C# developer myself and love Visual Studio with all the tools. But I do understand your point Yes, you are right, there are tools, but not the way Homey works. Visual Studi…
  • Not really. The problem is the way you need to develop for the Homey. I didn't anticipate that it would be that cumbersome. The API of the device is easy. But developing an app for Homey isn't (well, maybe not difficult, but too old fashion). I am a…
  • I can confirm that there is a bug in the manual time setting. When I got the Homey (release 0.10...) I set it manual and all was fine. The problem started with version 1.0.2 where the UTC time was also the time for the triggers (instead local time) …
  • Fire69 said: It's a biweekly forum-post about the software-status, has nothing to do with firmware releases I am not talking about the software status updates. I am talking about a bug in the release that is not fixed in 1 or 2 days, bu…
  • blackice said:  And from now on they will update in 2 week cycles. YEAH. I can now leave homey in the corner and wait till a version is coming where everything works like two versions ago. Agree! It is unbeleavable that Athom is…
  • @Fire69  Yep, that was my plan. But how can you see that it is released to the stable channel?
  • BasVanDenBosch I guess you are right date2016-12-11T13:01:32.093Zdate_dstfalsedate_humanzondag 11de december 2016 13:01:32  I had it manual and in The Netherlands. Meaning this is a bug. I will set it to automatic
  • Thank you for your answer. Hm, weird that you have to put homey in recovery mode. I hope they make it easier in the future. edit: all user data is erased? No way I am going to do this then.
  • BasVanDenBosch said: @underground If everything you want works for now, then I wouldn't update either (but it doesn't for you?). There's no need to update from a security point of view. I don't know better then the HUE-app will crash once a day…
  • Wimstradamus said: What a difference experience people have, i got no problems at all here. (v1.0.3) Hue (around 20 devices) , z-wave (fibaro, aeotec around 10 devices) Kaku (around 5 devices) all working fine. Got the feeling maybe some apps a…
  • BasVanDenBosch said: @underground and @blackice : Philips updated their FW as far as I know. Then Homey has to update too. Same happened today with Plex Notifier: Plex updated the software so the dev had to update the app. In 1.0.3 the crashi…
