Hi everyone,

Did some guys try this app to control Home Assistant : https://open-store.io/app/home.s710. It's work well or it's better to use the official app with waydroid or use HA with search engine ?

Thanks

@jukebox3711 why not just try it and see for yourself?

I don't use this app but if i refer to last comment on openstore from 02 august 2022 :

This works perfectly, great to have a nicely wrapped Home Assistant view!

So just test and see if it fits your needs ^^

Hi,

Maybe, because for now I don't have a device with UT... and I just want to buy a tablet with UT (Lenovo M10) to use Home Assistant like a hub to control my home.

If Home doesn't work, I will buy an other tablet. That's all.

@jukebox3711 well, if the main designated function for your tablet is to drive Home Assistant, I suspect you would be better off running Android on your tablet..

Hi,

Yes I saw the 2 comments, but its not very much to know if it's work well
And like i said, I don't have yet a device with UT. I will have when UT will be compatible with the Fairphone 4.

Yes but I don't want Android I prefer Apple if we go that way

I don't know if you heard about Nymea but this is another open source connected home control solution, that has a very polished Ubuntu Touch native app.

Hi,

Yeah but all my home is build with Home Assistant. I don't want to restart.

@jukebox3711
Ah ok, i understand that
Maybe you could rise this topic on home assistant forum : they lack an Ubuntu Touch native app

Aren't all of the tablet Home Assistant dashboards just an Android tablet in kiosk mode with just the browser running?

I don't know if Ubuntu Touch has a kiosk mode, nor if you could lock it down to just the browser.

Seems this is the case now. See here.

@mark1250 If the Home Assistent app is only just a web app, then the UT app should work as well as any other, since it is also a wrapper around the website.
