Thanks this worked, I went on the Github to try find Threenow, I found it here: [New App Shortcut]: ThreeNow · Issue #540 · PRProd/HA-Firemote · GitHub where’d you pick up the adb command?
Sorry no idea, its been a cpl years now, lots of trawling through these groups lol
No worries, i tried the button from the repo but sadly it doesn’t work. One down one to go I guess lol
Am wanting to use the Mobile API for the MetService weather integration, has anyone managed to extract the iOS app api key and would be willing to DM it to me?
wouldn’t know how to extract it from current config…
https://www.mitmproxy.org is your friend for stuff like this
I believe I know where the key is stored if you’re running HAOS and willing to have a go (it’s just a grep command on the right file, assuming you have ssh access).
I wasn’t successful using Fiddler, can try mitmproxy this evening
happy to run a command on the integrated terminal, on iOS it is really easy to send all traffic to a proxy…
I’m running Android, and the issue I have is with trusting the cert for the re-encrypted https data. Will be trying mitmproxy later if the below is not palatable/successful.
The command is
grep metservice /config/.storage/core.config_entries
I believe the apikey will be visible in plain text as one of the json values.
I had thought a year or more ago that I needed this api key too. But I never found out how to get it. However, I have the NZ MetService HACS integration installed and working fine - has been for ages.
So I was wondering, do you actually need to go to all this effort?
Yeah fair question. When setting up the integration, you have two options: public api, and mobile api. The public api has no restrictions on usage but also only takes location (City, Region or similar) as the location. The mobile api takes longitude/latitude as the inputs, but also needs an api key.
Why do I need long/lat precision? In my case I want to use the long/lat of a person that moves around, not a fixed location.
found the api-key will send you a dm
After all that the integration doesn’t let you track a specific device/person that exposes longitude/latitude, it just assumes the Home address…
Hey All - Im looking to create my own heat transfer system from our lounge (where we have a log burner) at one end of our house to the bedroom at the other. Apart from a small space header, we have no other heating or cooling in the house. In the winter, I want to move warm air from the lounge (which actually gets too warm sometimes!) to the bedroom, in the summer (at night), I want to pull warm air from the bedroom to the lounge (which also has the effect of pulling in cool air from outside).
I know this is not especially a NZ thing, but Im checking to see if anyone knows of an inline fan (and supplier) that could be used please? ideally I would like:
- Super quiet (I hate fan noise)
- Reversible speed control via HA somehow
- Would be great to be able to stop air flow as well (open close vent?)
I have done several ESPHome based projects at home so have no issues getting into this side of things as well.

I have been looking to do this for quite some time as well. I am in Tasmania but NZ does have suppliers of heat transfer systems.
https://dvs.co.nz/heat-transfer/
The key would be intergrating the control system into HA.
- Control over fan
- Control over Dampers
- Any Zigbee sensors can be used for Temp, Humidity and Door status.
Thanks for that - I am specifically going to DIY rather than buy an off the shelf product and integrate with HA. I have been looking into a few options for fans, as this is really the main component.
might sound a little pointless but by the time you add up all the cost of ducting & vents it kind of works out cheaper to buy a heat transfer kit and build on that or that’s what I’ve done linking it up with a very modified older HRV
thingiverse has a lot of good 3D printed air vents with servo control I’ve used

More on my Z-wave journey (with Shelly):-
After Shelly sorted out their web pages for their “ANZ” Z-Wave devices I ordered 1 of each type of device I wanted and tested them fine.
I now have on order a bunch of devices to use in the new house we are going to build next year.
Early in my “z-wave journey” I ordered two Shelly Wave Motion EU sensors which I do not need so they are available free to any Kiwis using EU zone. (They don’t have ANZ ones yet)
PM me if you would like them.
The contact energy integration is giving me quite unreliable readings in the energy dashboard, is there a better way for someone who is renting to be able to get energy set up in NZ?
put your own energy clamp on although all meters in DUN are being upgraded to new smart meters atm
