Hello everyone,

I’m not yet equipped with Gladys, but the temptation is now very strong :grinning_face:

Initially, I was hesitating between waiting for Apple’s hypothetical « HomePad » (champion of the closed ecosystem but paradoxically a member of the Matter alliance) and Home Assistant, whose complexity is as great as its catalog of integrations…

due to my uncertainty, I started equipping myself with Matter over Thread devices (via Apple TV 4K):

  • Tado x thermostat

IKEA:

  • Kajplats bulbs
  • Alpstuga sensor
  • Grillplats outlets
  • Klippbok water leak sensor
  • Bilresa remotes

I also have a Somfy Tahoma switch for io roller shutters.

In my shopping plans: Shelly WS90 weather station (but unfortunately in Zigbee), Reolink cameras, IKEA timmerflotte sensors…

In short, I’m still in full reflection, both on the equipment and the ecosystem to adopt…

Welcome to the Gladys community.
Many things are already compatible with Gladys.
For weather stations, I recommend checking out the ECOWITT models (WiFi MQTT). I don’t have one yet, but it’s on my shopping list (WS2910).
Don’t hesitate if you have any questions.

Welcome to the community!
Once you have Gladys set up, don’t hesitate to use my Apple TV integration to control your TV in scenes :wink:

I’d be curious to hear more feedback!

Welcome @Damien and don’t hesitate if you have any questions :slight_smile:

After a few weeks of use, I have a few beginner questions:

  • In an « energy consumption » widget, how do I make the default display the consumption rather than the cost?
  • Overkiz: I have my Somfy shutters added via the Tahoma switch, but the « My » position is not recognized by Overkiz. Is there another option?

Gladys Plus:

  • How do I change the default AI? (In the discussion tab and/or Telegram, the « auto » model never answers my simple questions)
  • Is there a way to manually stop the microphone? (If there is background noise, it doesn’t often stop)
  • Suggestion: Put users, Gladys Plus user management, and remote users in the same tab

Thanks to everyone!

I’ll check (I maintain the Overkiz integration)

For the energy consumption widget, it is not currently possible; you will need to request a feature.

For My, I’m not sure if anything exists; I haven’t seen anything like that in the different integrations I’ve been able to test (Jeedom, Home Assistant, Matterbridge).
When you define your My with the Tahoma app, the position is recorded in the roller shutter, which allows you to use the My from the physical remote control.
