| RainSoft water softener (Remind) | Works | Automatic device discovery with account login in v0.3.0Saved copyNot everyone is going to be comfortable with snooping SSL traffic to figure out what your Device ID and Auth Token are. Other homebridge plugins offer a login for your cloud account with that service. This may obviate the need to manually obtain this information for the config. I need to set up a test environment with the app and Charles Proxy to see if we can identify the endpoints and the returns from that. Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22. | Issue #2 · 2025-10 |
