Home Assistant

Home Assistant is an open-source Android application intended to be used with an existing Home Assistant instance. It is not presented as a standalone home automation service, because its use depends on that separate instance. The Android release is listed in the Internet & Browsers category on MirrorNest.

This package is the minimal flavor of the Home Assistant Android application. It does not include location tracking or notifications, which defines the scope of this particular version. Readers can consult the application documentation at https://companion.home-assistant.io/ for information about using the Android application with Home Assistant.

The open-source license means that the software is provided along with its applicable licensing terms and that its source is part of the way the project is made available. This gives users and administrators a clear basis for understanding the software’s distribution, without changing the requirement for an existing Home Assistant instance. The Android platform designation identifies this download as intended for Android devices.

MirrorNest mirrors the official Home Assistant build directly on its own storage. Before publication, the mirrored build is scanned for malware. This distribution arrangement provides access to the official build through MirrorNest while retaining the platform and category information associated with the software.
