The Homevolt app for Homey helps you getting a better understanding of your Homey Energy utilization by connecting your Homevolt battery and power sensors to Homey.
Monitor your charge level, charge/discharge pattern and even grid frequency from the Homey app.
This app requires:
- A Homevolt battery connected to your local network
- The webserver enabled on your Homevolt battery

- Password (local auth) to be disabled
GETTING STARTED
1. Ensure the local web server is enabled (without password)
