SmartHomeShop App
The SmartHomeShop App is the optional cloud platform for monitoring SmartHomeShop devices from a browser. It brings devices, measurement history, alerts, locations, energy prices and calculation tools together under one account.
App or Home Assistant?
| Choose the App when you want | Choose Home Assistant when you want |
|---|---|
| Access from any phone or computer | Local control inside your own network |
| Managed history, graphs and email alerts | Your own dashboards and automations |
| Energy prices, investment tools and account API access | Direct access to ESPHome entities |
| Several locations under one Pro or Business account | SmartHomeShop cards and energy control in Home Assistant |
You can use both. A supported device can run the cloud firmware for the App while remaining available in Home Assistant through ESPHome. Users who want a fully local setup can use the local firmware and Home Assistant without the App.
