Homie Pro
I tried using Homey Pro as the “back end” brain while keeping Apple Home as the front end everyone actually wants to use. It’s powerful, especially once you start building advanced flows, but it can also get complicated fast—especially when you’re mixing community-built apps and bridging back into Apple Home.
Pros
- +Enables a true dual-system setup with Apple Home as the UI
- +Advanced flows can combine multiple automations in one place
- +Can integrate a wide mix of devices via apps (including community apps)
Cons
- -Complexity can hurt stability and make troubleshooting painful
- -Easy to lose or misplace automations if you’re not organized
- -Splitting control of a single device between Homey and Apple Home is a mess
What Make Smart Matter says
“Could be universal hubs like the Homie Pro”
“I intended to do this with Homie Pro and Apple Home”
“Homie Pro is made up of apps, often communitybuilt, that'll matter later”
“Homie Pro is not without fault and can make things kind of complicated, which I'll get more into later”
