Probably the best free smart home system. Only issue is it is more difficult to use and less user friendly. but once set up it is amazing.
Home Assistant Companion App has become unusable since around June 2025. Happens across multiple Samsung phones in our house, not just mine. Constant “connection lost/reconnecting”, UI freezes after actions, icons don’t load, frequent crashes, and it gets slower every update. Meanwhile the exact same setup works perfectly in Chrome on the same device and network. This is not a network issue, it’s the app. Right now it’s unreliable and frustrating to use. Needs serious fixes ASAP.
I'm using HA for more than half a year now and didn't encounter any issue yet. Everything working great!
Simply the best!
For some reason, won't connect unless I force close and clear cache after not using for a while
I installed the server on my raspberry. It works flawlessly with my ZigBee hub and ZigBee bulbs
The app has this cute mini-game where every time your server updates or the app updates it breaks the connection and you have to figure out which random troubleshooting step online will work this time. Especially like the recommendation to constantly uninstall and reinstall it
Paired with Zigbee2MQTT it makes a super-stable and granular automation platform
Best Software in the world. Everything about Home Assistant is so exciting and awesome! If you're not obsessed with it yet you will be soon.
fantastic diy system for smart home and security if you have some technical skills and like to automate and tinker.
