Where Husqvarna fits in a smart home

Every mower supports Bluetooth for short-range control. Remote control depends on the model: some have mobile network or Wi-Fi built in, and Bluetooth-only models can be upgraded with an Automower Connect kit. Voice assistants, IFTTT and third-party platforms all go through Husqvarna's cloud account rather than a local connection, except one community Bluetooth integration for Home Assistant.

That suits owners who want to start, park or schedule a mower from the phone or by voice with Google Assistant or Alexa, and developers who want to build on an open cloud API. It is weaker for Apple Home users, since Husqvarna says Siri is not supported, and for anyone who wants Matter or local control, which we did not find.

Apps

Automower Connect

The official app for Husqvarna robotic mowers. It shows mower status, sends start, pause and park commands, and exposes settings such as timers and cutting height. Husqvarna lists two modes: Automower Connect for long-range access and Connect@Home for Bluetooth within about 30 metres. Long-range models add GPS tracking and theft alarms. Recent release notes mention Smart Routines such as rain and frost guard. The Husqvarna support page links to the Google Play listing, which we did not open. Published by Husqvarna AB.

PlatformStatusWhat it meansSources
Connection
BluetoothYesHusqvarna calls this Connect@Home. Control works within about 30 metres of the mower and is included on all models according to Husqvarna's service page. A temporary Automower Direct connection allows Bluetooth access without logging in on mowers from 2018 or later, except the Automower 105, and needs the PIN each time.Husqvarna: Automower Connect app Husqvarna: Automower Connect functions
Mobile networkYesOn models that support it, remote control works anywhere with mobile coverage. Husqvarna says Bluetooth-only models can be upgraded with an Automower Connect kit, and its support page lists compatible models.Husqvarna: Automower Connect app
Wi-FiYesSome models can join the home Wi-Fi network for remote control. Husqvarna describes it as a model-dependent option and the page does not name the Wi-Fi band.Husqvarna: Automower Connect app Husqvarna: Automower Connect functions

Apple HomeCommunityHusqvarna states that Siri is not supported. An unofficial Homebridge plugin brings Automower and Gardena Smart mowers into Apple Home as switches and sensors through Husqvarna's cloud. It needs a mower with the Connect module, does not support Bluetooth-only models, and needs a Husqvarna developer application key.Husqvarna: smart home integration Homebridge plugin Apple Home accessories list

Open platforms and developer access
Home AssistantYesHome Assistant has a built-in Husqvarna Automower integration, maintained by the Home Assistant project, not by Husqvarna. It uses Husqvarna's cloud (listed as Cloud Push) and needs OAuth credentials from an application created in the Husqvarna Developer Portal with the Authentication API and Automower Connect API connected. Only mowers with Automower Connect or the Connect Module are supported. A separate built-in Husqvarna Automower BLE integration talks to the mower over local Bluetooth with no account or cloud, but it relies on an unofficial reverse-engineered library. An older custom component by an independent author is archived.Home Assistant: Husqvarna Automower Home Assistant: Automower BLE Archived custom component
HomeyCommunityA community app listed in the Homey App Store with developer Magnus Ohlsson, not Athom. The store lists Homey Cloud, Homey Pro, Homey Pro mini and Homey Self-Hosted Server and does not list Homey Bridge. A forum thread by a community member says it needs a free Husqvarna developer portal application key and secret, does not support the Bluetooth-only Connect@Home variant, and polls every 10 minutes by default. We could not confirm whether the forum poster and the store developer are the same person.Homey App Store Homey community thread
