Makes sense. Might be able to do something easier with a shortcut from the Mac to Home Assistant.

Is there a reason you want to desktop app? On my desktops I just use a dedicated link to the web interface. The iOS app is great and works well for notifications which I believe you can mirror on your Mac.

I am curious if the data had anything to do with your neighbor moving or just a vindication that it was not just minor issue.

Well it would need to communicate reliably to be hackable :grin:

Actually it had no security. I had to put a filter on my electrical panel to keep out neighbors setup signals from messing with my stuff.

If it has a remote control it might be able to be controlled by the LinknLink

Yeah I am so disappointed in my Nest/Google Home stuff. I think LinknLink makes some inexpensive stuff that works to control air conditioners locally with Home Assistant via MQTT.

Sorry to hear about this. I so miss Fred Meyers since I moved to Colorado.

I agree. I love my Home Assistant Yellow with a large NVMe because it is super reliable and simple. I screw up my setups enough that I don’t need hardware issues adding to it 😂
