Has anyone ever been able to incorporate Sonoff devices into Home Assistant without having to flash them with custom firmware? While I’m familiar with MQTT, i would like to use the official firmware/app for remote control, e.g. for when I’m on holiday. I have 2 x Sonoff T1 heading my way, they are…

It would work without the firmware modification, but you would not be able to use the app any more. But as @DanielGalle said, you could control the devices via Home Assistant from remote…
