Home Assistant on a PS5 that runs homebrew. The app is PPSA11019, its tile is Home5, under Media.

Install

  1. Download PPSA11019.zip, unzip it and copy the PPSA11019 folder to the console the way you add any homebrew app folder (for example to /data/homebrew/ for ShadowMountPlus).
  2. Start Home5 from Media and sign in with your Home Assistant's address (http://192.168.1.20:8123, by IP address), username and password. Two-step sign-in works. Or put a long-lived token in home5.txt on a USB drive (see the README).

What it does

  • Your rooms are Home Assistant's areas, with their devices: lights, switches, fans, blinds, thermostats, locks, media players, scenes, scripts and sensors.
  • ✕ switches a device, L2 / R2 dim and brighten (the triggers push back), △ opens a light or thermostat.
  • The light bar glows in the colour of the light you are on.
  • Add devices to other rooms, rename, reorder, make your own rooms: kept on the PS5 only, Home Assistant is never changed.
  • Home Assistant's notifications show as the console's notifications.

Limits

  • homeassistant.local doesn't work on the PS5: use the IP address.
  • A self-signed https:// certificate is refused (a Nabu Casa address works).
  • No cameras, alarm panels or vacuums yet.
