New to Home Automation Looking for a Single app?
-
Hi All
Hopefully this place looks like a helpful forum as I’m quite new to all this!
I’ve had a few devices all working separately /through their proprietary apps but we’re just finishing off a large house extension and this has added to the list.
I’d ideally like to be able to view/switch a number of different devices on one screen/head end but have no idea where to start.
The devices we have/will have shortly are as follows;
Zigbee Smart Sockets
Zigbee smart switches (for lights)
Heatmiser Neo Underfloor Heating (this runs from a Samsung ASHP but that part is automatic)
Samsung VRF air conditioning (currently using Smart Things App)
Hive (2xLTHW heating circuits in the existing house and Hot Water)
Ring (doorbell!)
Hik Vision PoE CCTVWe have lots of appliances (Neff N70) which we can control remotely but not too fussed about controlling those at the
Moment)Any help/recommendations would be appreciated!
Thanks
Adrian

@christian_fabre Yes, but unofficially and utilizing the cloud. Company's like Ring (Amazon) notoriously block third party use of their APIs at random, so what may work now will not be guaranteed to work in the future.

Good reason for folks like us to not choose those products.
