80% less steps than in other tutorials but YOUR tutorial works perfectly fine!

I stepped waaay out of my depth adding my Zemismart blinds to HOOBS. This was immensely helpful. Thank you 🙏🏻

Amazing video! Thank you. No waffle, no faff... just clear instructions that got me to where I needed to be with the least time as I'm impatient.

Thank you thank you very much. Your video is the only one I have found that explains very well how to connect.

I literally have a had WEEKS of mental break downs because i couldn't figure it out. I am so thankful for this video you're seriously a life saver!!!

I was so close but not there. Your video helped me get this working. Thanks!

Thank you so much was trying to set this up for ages and your tutorial worked 🙏🏻

Many many thanks for your really helpful video!

Thanks mate, great video! You made it all so simple.

Thank you for an easy to follow tutorial that helped me get this setup. I did run into an issue that was causing me some issues. I use the SmartLife app and setup Tuya IOT like in this video. However, I kept getting the 2406 error. This was due to the region not matching my smart life app region. When you go into the Tuya IOT device tab (to setup SmartLife link to Tuya) make sure the correct region is selected. You will know if you have it correct by how many devices are connected. Hope this helps anyone that runs into the same issue. Great video!

Thanks for a super easy step-by-step guide. Exactly what I was looking for 👍🏼

Thanks man! Great tutorial!

easy easy with your help. Thank you

i am stucked at scan QR code. after scanning it says no access. i have enabled all data centers.

very helpful thank you

Thank you. Some trial and error on region etc. But it worked fairly easily in the end.

just brilliant!

Thank you for a great tutorial! Followed all the steps - everything works, but I can’t see any switches that are connected to Smart Life App in the Homebridge. The Homebridge log shows no faults or alarms…. Any tip would be very appreciated… thanks!

Thank you Sir !

hey there, found this tutorial after watching the official one but i'm still getting the "error 1106 permission denied" error, what do i do?

Brilliant, Thank you for this detailed Tutorial, PS: can you send a link of the video were you explain how to install homebridge. thanks

At 4:32, under the "Link Tuya App Account" description, your screen says "Already added 1 account and 3 linked devices." I have three devices, two light strips by different brands from amazon and a garage door opener. My screen says "Already added 1 account and 0 linked devices." What is causing the IoT platform to not detect the devices in my Tuya app? I don't understand what I have done wrong.

Nicely done. It is a bit outdated and the screens have changed a bit, but nothing that anyone can't figure out by themselves. Bravo!

Thanks!

My device’s dont show after install? If i click on acceories nothings shows up

Nice Video. By any chance do you think it would be possible to Add an AC to homebridge using the Tuya S08 Pro IR blaster & sensor

I am trying to add a dehumidifier. I can see the device in the cloud api, however no in the home bridge, As per I know this type of device is not full compatible, Is there a possibility?

Any idea how I get notified if my tuya smoke detector is detecting smoke? By now only the app will trigger a notification but HomeKit doesn’t. It always says no smoke detected, while the alarm on the device is going

Please everything is working well except some curtain wifi switch, i don’t see it in the home app And I can’t find the problem or a solution Please advise Thanks so much for the awesome guide

Will this work with light strips that are bluetooth only? Im having issues and wondering if maybe I need the wifi light strips for this to work.

Great video, thanks! Does anyone have issues with thermostats reading / reporting incorrect numbers?

Thanks for the video. But how i am gonna unlink my device cause i got only 2 devices to link and need to try it again.

Thanks for the video, I have followed all steps however my devices don’t show on the homebridge? Any ideas?

Hi. Is your light and switch using Wifi protocol? I wonder will the homebridge integration works for devices/lights/switches using Bluetooth mesh and zigbee protocol via gateway/hub added in Tuya/smart life App?

Hoobs 4 changed the process. Any tutorial on Hoobs tuya set up?

I have tryed to connect the Tuya app to my project and it does not show up in the project at all and no devices show up in the project at all and I followed all the steps that you did and it did not work at all so what do I have to do to get it to work the first time

Maybe You know what schould I do?:-) [11/16/2022, 9:04:32 AM] [TuyaPlatform] Login failed. code=2406, msg=skill id invalid [11/16/2022, 9:04:32 AM] [TuyaPlatform] Please make sure you selected the right data center where your app account located, and the app account is linked with cloud project.

Great Video. Did everything as instructed. but in homebridge. The device is on Tuya IoT. But when I open Homebridge, in the command panel I get: Got 1 Device (so it is finding it ) than fetching etc, finally i get: [Tuya] Unsupported Device: Name of device (in brown). Can you help please

The A1 Pro Max lock was added to HomeKit, but it does not lock or unlock the door. The device was added, but it doesn't work. This might be because the lock requires a Bluetooth connection and only allows connections through the Smart Life app.

following all steps i can add my device to tuya website but in homebridge i cannot see the accessories ...so in website I can see the accessories but in homebridge accessories tab nothing is there… any idea?

Is it a local integration or does it uses tuya cloud in some way when triggering devices ?

Hi, my tuya homebridge disconnects from homekit when I turn off the pc that I used to set it up, even though I have a tuya bluetooth hub, why?

Hey man, do you have any idea if the Lidl smart hub works with the HB Tuya integration yet? Thanks :)

TuyaLan No devices found. Need help Setup: wifi 2g - Light Bulb but my hoobs is connected to the 5g, Will it work? Tried to use the Tuya Platform and it works. Can someone help to make it work on Local Tuya? BTW Im using Hoobs

i don't get any devices . in the tuya cloud i can see all devices but not in the homebridge or homekit.

If I use this plugin would I be able to add all my devices to HomeKit, the current smartlife plugin I use not all my devices show up homekit which includes a power strip and a star projector

🎉This is a great tutorial. However it’s not working. I have done everything exactly and I don’t see and errors. Could you help me?

When I try to "Add App Account" it gives me an error: "No access", what can I do then?

Great video. When trying to scan the qr code for Smart life app auth to says "you cannot scan the qr code to add a device deployed in another data center". Any help? Thanks

Hello, it is free to use tuyaplatform ? Thanks for the video

Is it completely free? What does the “free trial” mean in creating the cloud project? Would it still work when the free trial expires?

Tuya wont let you unlink accounts but sends this error “The number of projects linked with this Tuya Smart App account has reached the upper limit of 2. Unlink the account from existing projects and try again.” But also if you look through their FAQ you’ll find “Note: Currently, deletion of cloud development projects is not supported, we will support it as soon as possible.”

I did something like this once before but after a month Tuya wanted me to pay, is this the same or did I make a mistake last time I did it? Please confirm this process will not require payment. Thanks.

where do i find the end point url?

will this work locally ?
