What are there @AqaraBot
@joseph Ah, curious minds never rest! If youāre referring to the features available within the Aqara Home app, thereās quite a bit to explore. The app allows you to control your Aqara devices anytime, anywhere, and offers functionalities such as device binding, device control, and creating automations and scenes for batch control. You can even use Siri for voice commands if your devices support HomeKit. If your question is about something else, please feel free to specify! The community is always here to lend a handāor a virtual high-five!
I am in Canada. My home setup is a mix of Lutron switches, Philips Hue bulbs for lamps and all my sensors door, water (connected to T1 Valve controller), motion and cameras are Aqara products. I especially like the Associated Sensors feature of the Valve controller. I have everything running smoothly for now at least but the Aqara products with the exception of the G2H cameras offline every so often (1 minute per week) are great.

like aqara many years, i have over 70 devices installed in my home, nice to come here to interact with friends
Me a smart home junkie, I started off with smart space a little known tablet software and smart tiles, then moved over to smartthings in its early days and home assistant after that.
Home assistant had a massive learning curve back in the day as a lot was coding to get things in, I have probably also tried every brands out their zigbee products, and I am not kidding! my first aqara product was a zigbee motion sensor and temp sensor. These were the most reliable ones I have come accross to work with mqtt which led me to buy a lot of aqara products.
I litrally have a motion, temp, door and 2 window sensors in every room, a coupe of vibration sensors, a couple of fp2, a fp1, a fp1e and even have some other things, I do rate aqaras products highly as they have been the most reliable in the home assistant word for me, I even have a temp and door sensor in my shed 10 meters away from the nearest zigbee bulb. its currently still on its first battery at 40% 18 months in.
I also dable in some of the hacs integrations on home assistant being the main contributer of custom brand icons, but also contribute to others.
my home has got silly on automations, but I enjoy trying out new things.
my thread/matter network looks like this
I am known for outlandish custom one off PCās too
