🏠 Home Connect Local: Bosch, Siemens and Neff locally in Home Assistant, set up by signing in

Hi everyone,

this fork brings Bosch, Siemens and Neff dishwashers, washing machines, ovens, hobs, hoods and fridges into Home Assistant over your local network. Once it’s set up, everything stays local.

Sign in right inside Home Assistant
During setup you just log in with your Home Connect account and the integration fetches the appliance profile itself. No extra tool, no juggling files, and it works from any device.

What else is in there
Over time a lot of my own tweaks went in, plus plenty of fixes from your issues. Names and options match the Home Connect app, in English and German.

Tested at home (all Siemens)
• Dishwasher SX63HX52BE
• Hob EX851LYV5E
• Oven HB774G1B1
• Hood LC91KLT60
I test every patch on these four first, in detail. Everything they can do is covered by now. For other appliances and models with more features I need your help: with your diagnostics and debug log I can add them properly.

Install

  1. Open the repository in HACS, it always takes you to the latest release:

Open your Home Assistant instance and open this repository in HACS.

Manual: HACS > â‹® > Custom repositories > https://github.com/Asmir1975/homeconnect_local_hass-UI (Integration)

  1. Download it and restart Home Assistant

  2. Add the integration and pick Sign in with Home Connect:

Open your Home Assistant instance and start setting up Home Connect Local.

  1. The sign-in with screenshots: Guide
    Already have your profiles? You can also upload the ZIP files from the profile downloader.

If something’s off
I’d prefer an issue on GitHub. What helps most is a short description of what you did and what happened, plus the debug log and the diagnostics file. How to get both, with screenshots: Debug log and diagnostics
No GitHub account? A PM or an e-mail works too, the address is in my GitHub profile.

Join in
Testers with any kind of appliance are welcome. And if you’d like to help with the code, PRs are welcome too.

Hi everyone,

Home Connect Local 1.12.6b1 is out as a beta. Testers are welcome, coffee maker owners especially.

I tested it on my Siemens EQ700 integral (TQ703D07). For other models I need your feedback.

To install: HACS, Home Connect Local, Redownload, pick the beta in the version list, download and restart Home Assistant.

What changed and what helps me (logs, diagnostics or a short “works fine”) is in the discussion:
Beta 1.12.6b1: instructions and feedback


Update: beta 2 (1.12.6b2) is out, with reworked coffee maker sensors. What is new: Release 1.12.6b2

Home Connect Direct 1.13.0

The integration has a new name and the repository moved. HACS follows automatically, old links redirect.

New:

  • Fewer duplicate entities. Warnings and events of oven, dishwasher, hood and coffee maker are in one message sensor each
  • Coffee maker: amount dropdown, state sensors for water tank, bean and grounds container and drip tray, Problem sensor
  • Oven: meat probe sensors, a “Confirm message” button (off by default), the alarm clock shows 0 once it has elapsed
  • Smart Start switches (off by default)

After the update: entities that moved into the message sensors or became selects show as unavailable. Please delete them by hand (Settings, Entities, gear icon).

First install:

Open in HACS

Manual: HACS > â‹® > Custom repositories > https://github.com/Asmir1975/homeconnect_direct (Integration)

Debug logs and diagnostics help me, ideally with the model number.

Release: 1.13.0

Home Connect Direct 1.13.1

New:

  • Fridge freezer: dispenser function, quick ice switch, sabbath mode duration, messages for water tank empty, ice hopper empty or inserted and quick ice bin full, plus the WiFi signal
  • Hob: “Join zone” diagnostic sensor
  • New icon and logo for the light and dark theme

Fixed:

  • Oven: program selection now works on ovens that expect the full option set (Siemens CM836GNB6), without error 526
  • Hob: zone 120 is kept and a fifth zone 500 shows up
  • Dishwasher: the “Remote start allowed” sensor is back (off by default)
  • Fridge freezer: the greyed-out duplicate temperatures and the generic door entities are gone

After the update: low water pressure of the dishwasher is now a state of the message sensor (low_water_pressure). Please switch automations that use the old sensor. Entities that are gone show as unavailable and can be deleted via the gear icon.

First install:

Open repository

The button opens the Marketplace on Home Assistant 2026.11 and later, HACS on older versions. By hand: Marketplace, Add from link, https://github.com/Asmir1975/homeconnect_direct. Older versions: HACS > â‹® > Custom repositories (Integration).

Debug logs and diagnostics help me, ideally with the model number.

Thanks to nitroxis (hob zone 120, with a patch and diagnostics), Kommbinator (oven), EDelsman (dishwasher and hob) and lyubomirtraykov (fridge freezer, with tests and logs): your reports and logs made this release possible.

Release: 1.13.1

Thank you!
