Futurehome Home Assistant add-on

Futurehome add-on for Home Assistant. Designed to be a complete drop-in replacement for the official Futurehome app, with support for all device types compatible with the Futurehome hub.

Features

This add-on:

Fetches all device metadata from the Futurehome hub and maps them to Home Assistant devices/entities.
Fetches and updates device states and availability in real time.
Supports interaction with devices comparable to the official Futurehome app.
Supports pairing of new Zigbee, Z-Wave, and Futurehome devices (work-in-progress). (If you’ve previously used third-party integrations—e.g. Philips Hue—you can still interact with those devices, as long as they're paired with the hub. However, it's generally recommended to use the appropriate Home Assistant integration directly for such devices.)

Installation

In the Futurehome app, go to Settings > My household > Smarthub and enable Local API.
(Optional but highly recommended) Block the hub’s internet (WAN) access in your router settings to prevent future firmware updates.
In Home Assistant, enable the MQTT integration.
Add this add-on repository to Home Assistant and refresh the page.
Open the Add-on Store and search for "Futurehome".
Install, configure, and start the Futurehome add-on.

Futurehome Device Services Compatibility Chart

This chart lists all services supported by the Futurehome hub, along with their current implementation status.

Devices commonly consist of multiple services: for example, a presence sensor might expose a sensor_presence service with a presence (true/false) value, and also a battery service if it is battery-powered.

Some services are more common than others; some are deprecated entirely.
