Which tool are you using to download from iCloud and save it in your NAS + keeping it in sync?

No problem, I share your frustration, I’m not saying it won’t happen, but I see many challenges in-between, meanwhile for a native experience I don’t have how not to recommend Apple Home, is until this day the platform I most like to use (when I don’t need anything custom, like a wall tablet dash)

Unfortunately not in the near future, there are some debates around native UI in Home Assistant but for now the agreement is that it won’t happen unfortunately :/

Hahahah it will be fun for sure!

Having a smart home is nice, but when shit hits the fan, I imagine myself living in a far-away cabin. But then again… McDonald’s wouldn’t deliver there, so I get back to work 😂

Next step:

Experiment? I already went to the App Store twice to download it. When does the beta open? 🤓

Hahaha thank you! But it’s definitely not ready, not even for beta, just looking cool for now, but I’ll keep posting the progress in here 😁

Progress on the native dashboard experiment for @home-assistant.io iOS App, now the goal is to copy what the new web “home” dashboard is doing + some extra customization.

Known issues: “everything” 😂

😂😂 someone needs to poke SwitchBot to move to Thread… it’s becoming cringe

Looking forward to receive the new Aqara U400 directly from US (to the Netherlands), but at the same time a bit afraid of making the deadbolt hole at my front door since it has glass very close to where the hole needs to be 😂

You know one that surprised me a lot? The mmWave sensor from SwitchBot (32€), I’m using it in my bathroom and it never failed, usually with other sensors they fail to detect me in the shower and turn off the light 😂. Buuuuut… it’s Bluetooth

I have tested so many mmWave sensors already, each one works for specific rooms from my experience 😂 difficult to recommend to a friend. This weekend I’ll be testing the Aqara FP300

The save the date announcement graphic, created by our graphic artist Clelia Rella. Centered on a dark blue background are geometric shapes: a blue asterisk on the left, green gradient ovals made to look like a plant with leaves in the middle, and four purple into blue gradient circles stacked in a square. Text centered above the shapes reads: Wednesday April 8, 2026 State of the Open Home In-person & Online Text centered below the shapes reads: Save the date <logo> Open Home Foundation

Big news from today's @home-assistant.io live stream: April 8 is the date of this year’s State of the Open Home — an annual event where we highlight what’s new and what’s coming next for our projects.

Mark your calendars – more details coming soon!

The IKEA one is also quite good, I just replaced one Eve plug by the IKEA and works perfectly for 1/4 of the price

What about a @home-assistant.io iOS native camera manager screen? 👍🏻 👎🏻?

Experimenting with how a native iOS app for @home-assistant.io could look like. 👍👎?

This house has no idea how many bugs will show up in the near future 🤣

The iOS HA app does not integrate with Apple Health yet unfortunately

Happy holidays! Before we disappear into family time and catching up on our favorite shows, we have one more episode for you. And it's 90 minutes of deep nerdery about the smart home. Every year, we try to dig into one standard or spec that has impacted our lives this year, and we couldn't think of anything more potentially great and occasionally infuriating than Matter. Matter is supposed to be the protocol that makes the smart home work — so, uh, how's that going? The Verge's Jennifer Pattison Tuohy joins to discuss the state of the smart home, before we play a game to see how well we understand things. Then, Home Assistant creator Paulus Schoutsen tells us what it's like to try and make Matter work, and where we might be headed next year.
