I just had an incredibly frustrating experience trying to set up an IKEA Jetstrom smart light unsuccessfully.

Smart homes can feel so difficult sometimes!

Planning a DIY smart home build?

If yes, you'll probably want to listen to this conversation that I recently had with David Webster because he shared a lot of valuable insights that just might save you time, money and embarrassment.

@Athom is this possible?

Is it possible to restart "flows" in Homey before they run their course?

This seems like a pretty obvious use case, but I can't for the life of me see how/where to enable this in the Homey mobile app...

I recently set up my first flows in Homey Pro and I've gotta say, they've nailed it.

Easy to use, intuitive, drag and drop, responsive and that's all just on the mobile app.

These flows are already adding value and providing peace of mind - I can't wait to add some more soon.

@mrhomeproduct I agree, it’s definitely a good sign

[Automated Home @ottomate]

What do you make of the #Sonos statement about the app and the timeline for future fixes?

Too little too late or is this the good news many have been waiting for?

[Automated Home @ottomate]

But with so many negative comments on EVERY platform, #fixtheapp being so widely used and many still very upset, I'm not sure if this is enough to win back the support they may have lost.

Here's what I think..

@melectriccar Great result for the founders and the more I think about it the more it seems like a no-brainer for LG too

Korean giant LG acquires Homey maker Athom 🤯

I remember on the most recent AMA run by the Athom team they hinted at something big coming, I guess this was it.

Alexa paired with my Sonos soundbar is such a pleasure to use

[Automated Home @ottomate]

I was originally going to cancel my @amazonmusic subscription because I didn't see the value, but now that I have Alexa voice control paired with @Sonos Arc and Sub Gen 3, I think I won't be able to live without it.

So so so good! 🙏🙏
