It has 56 installs sharing analytics, needs the vendor's cloud and was last updated November 6, 2026. From the [repository description](https://github.com/renaudallard/homeassistant_homeconnect): > Home Assistant integration for Bosch, Siemens, Neff, Gaggenau, Thermador and Balay appliances, through the Home Connect cloud or straight over your own network [Open in My Home Assistant](https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/marketplace_repository/?owner=renaudallard&repository=homeassistant_homeconnect&category=integration) On Home Assistant 2026.10 or older? [Open it in HACS](https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/hacs_repository/?owner=renaudallard&repository=homeassistant_homeconnect&category=integration) ## Supports - **Uses the vendor's cloud**: Needs an internet connection and an account with the vendor. - **Found by itself**: Home Assistant spots it on the network and offers to add it. - **From the Marketplace**: Installed through the Marketplace, formerly HACS. - **Actively maintained**: Its author released or pushed a change in the last six months. ## Setting it up Install it from the Marketplace and restart Home Assistant, then add it under Settings, Devices and services. ### Sign in to Home Connect - **Address the browser ended on**: The whole address, not just part of it. It is only good once and only for a few minutes. - **How to reach the appliances**: Through the Home Connect cloud, straight to the appliances on your own network, or straight to the ones that can be reached that way and through the cloud for the rest. Signing in is needed in every case: the account is the only place the key to an appliance is kept. ### Sign in to Home Connect again - **Address the browser ended on**: The whole address, not just part of it. It is only good once and only for a few minutes. ### How to reach the appliances - **How to reach the appliances**: Local control needs each appliance to be on the same network as Home Assistant and to be announcing itself on it. Choosing "where possible" sends an appliance that can't be reached directly through the cloud instead. ### After setup - **Through the cloud**: For an appliance that misbehaves when reached directly. The integration is loaded again when this is saved.

Pair the appliance with the app once, then drive it from here. > > No developer account. It signs in as the app itself, with the app's own credentials, so an ordinary Home Connect login is the whole of the setup. Nothing has to be registered anywhere and there is no client of your own to create or keep. > > - Built from what the appliance says — a command becomes a button, a settable flag a switch, a choice a select, a bounded number a number. No per-model tables, and no list of appliance types to keep… > - Only what it will accept — an appliance also says what it will take right now. A washing machine offers the programmes it will run in the state it is in, and nothing at all while its door is open or… > - Cloud or local — reach the appliances through the Home Connect cloud, or straight over your own network with no cloud in the loop at all, or straight to the ones that can be reached that way and… > - Live, not polled — through the cloud, one Server-Sent Events connection carries the whole account, so a cycle finishing shows up when it happens. Polling carries on behind it at half-hourly… From the README of [renaudallard/homeassistant\_homeconnect](https://github.com/renaudallard/homeassistant_homeconnect#readme), [BSD 2-Clause License](https://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause.html).
