# Govee

> Govee is a Marketplace integration for Home Assistant. Its installs are not shown, because another integration uses the same domain, govee. It needs the vendor's cloud and was last updated April 28, 2026.

Govee is a Marketplace integration that controls and monitors Govee lights through the vendor's cloud API. It adds light entities to Home Assistant and is set up in the UI with an API key from the Govee Home app and a poll interval. Some devices cannot report their state, so the integration assumes the state from the last command, and otherwise requests it from the cloud. Options cover assumed state, showing an offline light as off, and switching off state updates for chosen attributes as a temporary workaround when the API returns wrong data. The README says the repository is discontinued and that only fixes for breaking changes will be accepted.
