  • Highly disagree that Z-Wave is dead. There are many companies, especially Zooz, coming out with new products all the time. Yes, ZigBee is far cheaper but I’ve had the worst reliability issues with ZigBee and moved everything to Z-Wave. Zero issues with connectivity or batteries dying too fast.

    But that’s the beauty and strength of HA. Openess and selection.





  • My biggest question to FUTO/Immich is if they’re worried about a revenue stream, why not do something similar to Home Assistant? You never have to pay HASS a dime and never see anything to “shame” you. All you get is essentially a forwarding subdomain with some “easier” ways of doing cloud related things. There’s zero “shaming” or calls to pay. I pay HASS/Nabu Casa monthly cause I’m lazy and it makes my life easier. FUTO should consider doing something similar.


  • Can you share a screenshot of the error? (Block out any PI of course.) I run into this issue due to my DNS blocking things that Google uses for the integration. I take my cell phone off WiFi, run the integration steps and viola, it connect.

    I don’t believe remote access is required but I pay the subscription cause lazy and want to help fund the project.
