Hi @ElCid - currently we don’t have any work in progress for the Vera skill. Our last update was done in July 2019 when we added support for other languages.
I have asked the same question, never received an answer. Why do they keep fleecing people by selling Vera products if they are not going to support them.
We’re currently working on different ways for users that have Vera controllers to use the new Ezlo Platform - one way is via the Ezlo Linux firmware - see the alpha we started for Vera Edge controllers , another way is via hub grouping that will allow using Vera controllers with Ezlo controllers and benefit of all the features we’re developing on Ezlo, but we’re still working on defining this one.
We want all of you to use the Ezlo Platform, so we’re investing in solutions that allows you to do this. Meantime, we’re also working on the Ezlo Platform features, as you can see from all of our posts in the community because we want you to have most of the features you’re currently having with Vera, plus other new features.
Thats no help as we would have to start from scratch with Ezlo firmware. Thats not what i want and i don’t think others want that either.
If Ezlo don’t start supporting vera hubs (add missing amazon support, ifttt, zigbee full stack) when this hub has to be replaced i will be remembering how Ezlo just stopped supporting a hub they still sell.
I want all the features i currently have not most.
Ps. can i get a responsive answer to my question?
