Aldi Smart sockets from Balco (Cocoon Connect app)

Hi all!

I recently have bought myself a couple of smart plugs from Aldi.
These are of the brand “Balco” and are ment to be operated trough the Cocoon Connect app.
I searched a bit if it’s possible to integrate these into HA but can’t find much.
Only thing I can find is a discussion about Aldi’s Cocoon Camera’s:

Anyone who has been successful in integrating these plugs?

I will be trying to take a look inside to see if it is based on an ESPxxxx chip.
If so, it should be possible to flash it.

Is it a Tuya based app?

Also try looking at this:

It seems tuya based. You can connect to the device using the tuya app (same steps as the cocoon app), which can be added in home assistant. Next thing is to control it locally, which should also be possible.

Use the tuya smart app instead of the cocoon one the follow then setup for tuya home assistant and voila it works
