SmartThings

My house is set up with Inovelli switches everywhere and Hubitat. I leverage MakerAPI to make it all work with HomeKit. Simple, fast and reliable.

I’m fully migrated to the new app, using the new ide url with home bridge. The look and feel is exactly the same. Haven’t used the “classic” app in about 2 years. I really don’t see ide going away anytime soon. Sure there might be a new api set down the road, but we’ll just update.

Still works well - but I believe Samsung eliminated the tool that allowed for initial setup to Homebridge. I could be wrong… but I have ~10 devices still enabled via ST that work great through Hb

Are you signing in to the SmartThings CLI on one device, but completing the authentication on another device? If so, that’s likely the problem. The SmartThings CLI assumes you’re using the same device for both steps. After you log in, it redirects to localhost. If you authenticate on a different device, the redirect goes to the wrong machine, and the login won’t complete. You have two options: 1. ⁠Use the same device for running the CLI and completing the login. (Recommended) 2. ⁠Or manually change the localhost redirect URL to the IP address of the machine running the SmartThings CLI. Tip: …

I am trying to get my Yale Conexis L1 lock with the zwave module working in HomeKit. It works fine in smartthings classic app. But does not show up in HB and not in HK Smartthings button that works in Smartthings classic app, shows in HB and works in HK. So I know the overall setup is correct. First step is why isn’t the lock showing up in HB?

Added new fan service - seems to work. Hopefully others find this useful!!

I do the same thing with great results. Both the lock and the DoorSense sensor is exposed to HomeKit via Smartthings. Before switching to Smartthings, I utilized the Wink Homebridge plugin to expose this lock in HomeKit. This integration does not expose the DoorSense sensor, but worked otherwise identically.

It should work with the Homebridge SmartThings plugin, especially since it lets you manually specify which type of device your appliance should be

It’s still working, but you are right. I think switching to Hubitat is the best choice here.

I hope you understand the Smartthings groovy IDE is going away, some speculate that will happen this year. When this happens the homebridge-Smartthings plugin will completely stop working permanently along with some other great apps like webcore even if they are working now. If you want zwave / zigbee / LAN devices in homekit i would look into hubitat or home assistant.

Title says it all really. Running homebridge on server and smartthings plugin. Talking to my Apple watch to unlock a Schlage Zwave lock passed over via Smarthings. The plugin does what it is supposed to do every time without fail, but the door lock doesn't seem to be reporting back what iOS needs to hear, as Siri replies "Sorry, I wasn't able to unlock your front door." at the exact moment the door is unlocking just like I asked it to. Is there a fix?

Which plug-in are you using for this? I’ve had my SmartThings in HomeKit via Homebridge via this plugin https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-smartthings-tonesto7. There is a V2 of it but I did not have any luck with it when it first came out. It’s worked really well for a long time now. Light switches and door lock along with Fan controllers all Zwave. Just got the button but it’s a bit flaky right now as far as changing light colors.

I've had the same issue with both a SmartThings Outlet and a Fibaro Dimmer 2 module; duplicate devices appearing within HomeKit, one for the switch (that actually works) and another marked as an outlet, which doesn't appear to do anything. After looking through the homebridge debug log when both devices are switched on and off via HomeKit, the instructions are being sent to homebridge as different characteristics on the same device. I also observed that the outlet characteristics appeared to be different for the SmartThings Outlet and the Fibaro Dimmer 2 module: The SmartThings Outlet uses …

With Smartthings starting to charge for access to their API, I’m thinking of removing my devices which are connected via Smartthings. It’s mostly nearly 10 year old ge paddle light switches. I run a ton of Lutron devices so I could go that direction but wondering if there are any cheaper options (perhaps HomeKit compatible natively). Lutron would my gets expensive and I need close to 10 switches. I also have one spot that’s a 3 way switch.

Samsung has identified 30 Sept as the end of Groovy, which means the current version of Homebridge-SmartThings will stop working. I'm curious what others might be planning for transition? It's been a long time coming, and I've kicked the can down the road for so long that I was content to keep kicking the can. I have mostly leak sensors and a few motion sensors left in ST, all fed to HomeKit via Homebridge. I'm trying to decide if I get a Conbee and move what I can there because it's a less expensive option, or do I suck it up and replace with Aqara devices which would be direct HomeKit …

Hello! ​ I am attempting to get SmartThings devices enabled in HomeBridge, using https://github.com/tonesto7/homebridge-smartthings. However, step 2, the SmartThings Classic Mobile App is required. ​ This app is now discontinued, and I have not found a way to get around this. Is there something I am missing? or is all hope lost as the classic app has been discontinued? ​ I'm not sure if this will even work, I am attempting to add a Samsung range/oven.

I'm having the same problem. It happens all the time with my wemo switches, zigbee light bulbs, and my Schlage Camelot z-wave door lock. I'm using v0.3.5 of the smart app and homebridge & homebridge-smartthings both seem to be up to date according to npm. It used to work fine for me up until I think the version that added the switches section in the smart app. This may be unrelated, but a couple days ago I added a good many bulbs and water leak sensors to ST and added them to the smart app. When I restarted homebridge I kept getting a rate limit error for a while. That error's gone now though.
