Welcome everyone to this thread where we can share our experiences with Aqara devices and their integration with Homey and Matter! I’ve been following the recent marketing push from Aqara and I’m really excited about their new products, especially those that leverage Matter technology. It’s great to see Homey featured in their promotions, but I’m curious about how seamless the integration actually is.
One thing I’ve noticed is that while many Aqara devices are compatible with Homey, there are still some that require a M3 Hub for proper integration, especially when using Matter. For example, the W600 and smoke detectors fall into this category. I’d love to hear from others who have successfully integrated these devices and any tips they might have for optimizing their setup.
I’m also interested in hearing about experiences with the new Aqara Hub M200. It seems like a powerful addition, especially with its support for Thread and PoE. Has anyone had the chance to test this hub in combination with Homey? I’d be curious to know if it’s living up to the hype in terms of performance and ease of use.
Lastly, I’ve heard some users mention issues with delays or compatibility when integrating certain Aqara devices. If anyone has encountered these problems and found solutions, I’d love to learn more. Let’s make this thread a collaborative space where we can troubleshoot, share successes, and explore the full potential of Aqara devices within the Homey ecosystem!
Feel free to share your experiences, challenges, and tips below. Let’s keep the conversation positive and constructive as we explore the possibilities together!
