Ratings and reviews

Pro: Homey is the only device I have found which can connect different devices. It connects all my Zigbee devices reasonably well and user-friendly (not my old heat pumps, though). Contra: The app is usable for children only. Just setting up a switch with four buttons in a room with some lights requires clicking and clicking and clicking. It desperately lacks a text interface. I know about "Groups" and "Hue script", but they doesn't remotely solve the task. Also, it is impossible to "capture" a light configuration into a flow, there are confusingly many ways to specify colours, and so on. In my experience, Athom doesn't offer any meaningful support, and I haven't found any community for advanced users. It is difficult to e.g. adjust all lights in a room (without hacks via Homey Script). Conclusion: The best alternative in a very immature industry. It is good for simple tasks, but very time-consuming for advanced tasks.

it is a pretty good app. not super intuitive as to how to get things connected, and the flows aren't necessarily as easy to setup as you might want them to be. and not all major devices are supported. also I've had several instances of it freezing or not letting me scroll far enough to put the device in thr right room. and lastly, might be a user error, but I couldn't find a way to add multiple devices to a room at once. so I had to go through every lightbulb individually.

At first I was disappointed with the system because it could not drive most of the devices I had already installed in the house. Eventually I decided to stop patching different technologies into Homey and decided to replace devices to match devices already compatible with Homey. This meant I searched for a device in the Homey apps section, then bought the matching models. Unfortunately not all app developers list model numbers, but I could still replace all IoT devices. The result is fantastic.
