Support – myStrom Home

myStrom Home is the little box that brings 3rd party devices from Philips Hue, IKEA TRÅDFRI, Shelly into the myStrom app. This means that you can control them together with myStrom devices and use them with myStrom features, e.g. the scheduler, scenes and many more. The devices are also available to myStrom-compatible services such as IFTTT and Alexa. myStrom Home controls devices locally and quickly. And your Smart Home remains controllable even in the event of an internet failure.

You connect myStrom Home to your router with the Ethernet cable. After installation via the myStrom App, myStrom Home automatically finds Shelly devices and devices connected to an IKEA TRÅDFRI Gateway or a Philips Hue Bridge, which you can then add to the myStrom App.
