I recently upgraded my Homey setup from a Bridge to a Pro, and I wanted to share my experience in case anyone else is going through the same process. It was a bit nerve-wracking at first, but everything went smoothly in the end!
First, I made sure to back up my current setup. I found the backup option in the Homey app, which was crucial for preserving all my devices, flows, and routines. I was worried about losing anything, but the backup process was straightforward and saved me a lot of time.
When the Pro unit arrived, I followed the setup instructions carefully. The app guided me through the migration seamlessly. I was impressed by how quickly it recognized my existing devices and imported all my saved configurations. It’s like the Pro version picked up right where the Bridge left off!
One thing I did differently was keep my Homey+ subscription active. I heard it helps with updates and new features, and it definitely made the transition process smoother. I also made sure to update all my devices to the latest firmware, which I believe contributed to the success of the migration.
Overall, I’m thrilled with the upgrade. The Pro version feels more powerful and responsive, and I’m excited to explore all the new possibilities it offers. If you’re considering making the switch, don’t hesitate—just back up your data and dive in!
