I recently discovered the Heimdall app for Homey, and it’s been a game-changer for my home security setup! 
I wanted to share my experience and some tips for anyone looking to integrate surveillance into their smart home ecosystem.First, I set up Heimdall to monitor my entry points and motion sensors. The app allows you to customize surveillance modes, which I found incredibly useful. I configured three modes: Disarmed for when I’m home, Armed for when I’m away, and Partially Armed for nights when I want some security but not the full alarm system. The delay feature was a lifesaver—giving me a few seconds to disarm the system when I come home late.One thing I especially liked was how easy it was to integrate Heimdall with my existing smart devices. I added a smart switch to control the surveillance mode, which I can now toggle from my phone or even through voice commands. It’s seamless and adds an extra layer of convenience.I also experimented with setting up flows for notifications. When the alarm triggers, it sends me a push notification and even dims the lights to alert me. It’s all about creating a system that works intuitively with my daily routine.For anyone looking to try Heimdall, I recommend starting with the basic setup and gradually adding more advanced features. The app’s support for multiple languages and the active developer community make troubleshooting a breeze.If you’ve tried Heimdall or any other surveillance app, I’d love to hear your experiences and tips! Let’s share and improve our smart home security together!
