Hi everyone! I’ve recently gotten into the world of smart home automation and decided to give the Homey Bridge a try. It’s been an exciting journey so far, and I just wanted to share my thoughts and some questions I have about its capabilities.
I’ve set up a few basic flows already, and I’m amazed at how seamless the process is. For example, I’ve created a simple flow where my Philips Hue lights turn on when I open my front door. It’s these little conveniences that really make you appreciate the potential of smart home tech.
One thing I’m curious about is the integration with Spotify via Bluetooth. I’d love to have my favorite playlist start playing automatically when I get home, but I’m not sure if that’s possible with the current setup. Is there a way to link Spotify with a Bluetooth speaker through the Homey Bridge? Also, I’m wondering if there are plans to expand the functionality of the Bridge to include more third-party apps and devices in the future.
Another area I’m exploring is the integration with Philips Hue without the need for a separate bridge. I’ve heard that this might be possible, but I’d love to get some clarification on that. If it is, that would be a game-changer for simplifying my setup!
I’m really excited to see how the Homey Bridge evolves and what new features will be added. I’d love to hear from anyone who has experience with similar setups or has advice on how to make the most out of this technology. Thanks for reading, and I look forward to learning more from the community!
