+1 Ikea Shortcut button coupled with a firmware update (2.0.080). So far, the button doesn't burn battery and it works perfectly, thanks to @birdslikewires

[RELEASE] IKEA Drivers with Health Status and Zigbee2MQTT

Following my take on a driver for the Tradfri Shortcut Button I've cobbled more together to support the Symfonisk Sound Remote and the Tradfri Signal Repeater. These are combination drivers, so can be used with directly paired IKEA devices or those connected via my Zigbee2MQTT Routing Driver. I recommend Zigbee2MQTT as it solves all of the battery related issues seen with these devices. Installation Search for the keyword "IKEA" on Hubitat Package Manager and you should see "IKEA Drivers from…

+1 Google Home Community. I was able to expose my Sinope Thermostats that were not exposed through Hubitat version of Google Home. Thanks to @mbudnek and all the others that contributed!

[Alpha] Community-maintained Google Home integration

I've been transitioning over to Google Assistant from Alexa for a while now, and one of the biggest problems I had was the fact that the Hubitat integration with Google Home reported all of my window blinds and ceiling fans as lights. I got annoyed enough with it that I decided to write my own integration between the two. This is a very highly customizable integration that allows the user to define how each device type appears to Google Home and how Google Home commands map to Hubitat comman…

+1 to Hubitat Package manager. I don't have to go to github everynow and then to check if a new update is available for our community driven packages. Thanks to @dman2306

[BETA] Hubitat Package Manager

Ok I think this is stable enough now to release as a beta. This is a package manager for Hubitat that makes installing and managing your apps and drivers easier. It allows you to install an app (for example Ecobee suite that has 13 apps and 2 drivers) with "one click" instead of having to do each one manually. It also automatically checks to see if new versions of anything installed using this app are available. As time goes on I hope more developers will come on board (if apps you use aren't su…

[RELEASE] Google SDM API - Nest integration

Google SDM API is an app with coordinating drivers for monitoring and controlling Nest devices from Hubitat Elevation. GitHub repo: CHANGES.md file lists changes in each release Some discussion of initial issues in early development is in this thread: Nest Developer access now live Upgrades from v0.x.y to version 1.0.0 and above:

This has been great!

Iris V1 Keypad! It is something I had wanted since moving from Iris, and it finally was done this year.

Google Home Community and Hubitat Package Manager.

GHC is perfect. I try to avoid dashboarding, GHC is great for interaction with my smarthome (alarm, open door notifications, temperature control, light, etc).

HPM is just great for installing and keeping community stuff up to date

Honeywell Integration Driver and App maintained by @brianwilson

So nice to be able to use all my alarm contacts in integrations and not have to buy a bunch of sensors. The response time is rediculously fast too.

I would agree that the "Hubitat Package Manager" is best third app.

As pointed out above, a lot of us are ignoring the title of the thread.... Devices not apps...

Devices not apps.

My apologies

Thanks for flagging gametime I would have never known about it if it was not for this post.

Not just you, about half or more of these suggestions are apps.

I was never an Iris user when it was a thing. But since its demise, I have collected many Iris components for my Hubitat (mostly motion sensors and door contacts). Just yesterday, I received an Iris security starter kit which included the V1 keypad. Finding out there was a community driver available for it made me so happy!

My home is elevated by having an NHL virtual device that flashes a bunch of colorful lights and plays a goal celebration. A virtual device is still a device, device states matter!

Ah-devices, my bad.

Ring Alarm systems via the "Unofficial" Ring Integration that allows interoperability with them.

[BorrisTheCat]

Google SDM still counts though as it's a app to bring in devices like lifex is a device.

It allowed me to use doorbell rings to do lights shows at Christmas and Halloween. And allows me to control my heating.

Hubitat Package Manager followed by unofficial Ring Integration which I used to turn on my front porch light if motion after dark.
