3.10.16
Important message: this release contains some non-breaking but fundamental changes. All previous device drivers have been deprecated for both Homey Pro and Homey Cloud. They have been replaced by a single unified driver for all Shelly devices. Your already paired devices will continu to function but new devices should be paired with this new driver. This will make adding future devices to the ever growing collection of Shelly devices a lot easier.
- Added support for the Shelly Plus HT and Shelly Motion 2 for Homey Pro & Homey Cloud
- Added support for outbound websockets, a new way of communication for Shelly Plus/Pro devices with Homey Pro
- Add total energy consumption for Shelly 3EM for Homey Pro and Cloud
- Add total power consumption for Shelly RGBW2 for Homey Pro and Cloud
- Fix for Shelly TRV target temperature being out of bounds and causing an app crash
- Various minor code improvements for both Homey Pro and Cloud
I’m sure the deprecation of currently used device drivers will raise concerns, especially since user will see a message about this in the Homey app. No worries, your devices will continu to function normally within Homey until I decide to fully remove the driver. For a lot of long lived drivers I will probably not remove them at all and no action is required, just ignore the message. I do intend to remove the more recently added drivers for all Plus/Pro devices at some point to reduce the apps footprint. With over 75+ drivers the Shelly app has grown huge. It’s hard to maintain and I’m worried this is starting to impact performance. If you have paired any Plus/Pro devices with Homey you are now encouraged to re-pair them using the new driver. I will probably remove the current drivers after the summer to give users some time to fix their flows.
