Work With Homey

Looking for more than just app control? By connecting your SmartWings shades to Homey, you can make them part of a smarter, more responsive home, whether you're using Zigbee, Z-Wave, or Matter motors.

Unlock the full potential of your shades with a compatible Homey hub. Effortlessly automate your space and control your shades with your voice—using Alexa, Google Assistant, or even Siri through experimental HomeKit integration. Imagine your shades reacting automatically to sunlight, temperature, or motion, creating the perfect ambiance every time. Just add the right sensors and watch your home come alive.

Highlights

Unified Control for Your Entire Smart Home

Manage your SmartWings shades alongside all your other smart devices—like lights, thermostats, and sensors—using a single Homey app. This unified control streamlines your smart home experience, eliminating the need to juggle multiple apps.

Powerful, No-Code Automations with Flow

Homey's intuitive Flow editor lets you create customized automations without any programming skills. Set your shades to open or close based on time, presence, or other triggers. For example, schedule your shades to open at sunrise on weekdays or close automatically when you leave the house.

Hands-Free Operation via Voice Assistants

Integrate with Apple Siri, Amazon Alexa, or Google Assistant to control your shades using simple voice commands. Whether you're busy cooking or relaxing on the couch, you can open or close your shades effortlessly.

Built-in Sunrise and Sunset Automation

Homey knows your local sunrise and sunset times and can automatically trigger your shades accordingly. No additional sensors are needed for this feature, making it easy to sync your window coverings with natural daylight cycles.

Let your environment take the lead

Integrate intelligent sensors to create a space that responds to real life, not just routines.

  • Rising indoor temperatures? Shades lower on their own to maintain a cool, energy-efficient environment.
  • Shifting light throughout the day? Your shades subtly adjust to reduce harsh glare and shield furnishings from UV exposure.
  • Someone enters the room? The shades react instantly, creating a seamless blend of comfort and automation.

Note: Environmental sensors must be purchased separately and be compatible with Homey.
