1. use H32 original firmware is ok.
2. no new firmware for update.
3. H32B use MQTT for integration. if H32, use TCP for integration. we have video tour on our YouTube channel.

so there were problems with connection
so we did via https://googlehome.hardill.me.uk/user/devices
so I changed Work mode for TCP server
1) now I have a new problem - THe app Smart Home can not see relay.
If I add relay againg - no adding in the app. No relay in the app Smart Home. It shows Offline in Host settrings
How to solve it?
2) THen, when I use my PC for control - I Use LAN mode (LAN connecting). And when I set timers - they don't execute. How to solve it?

1. "KinCony smart home" need work mode= UDP, that need for local server. if you changed to "TCP Server" , that is work for local network, so "KinCony smart home " will can't work.
2. if you using PC timer setting, that PC software need work mode="TCP Server", if using timer, need your PC always power on. I think you can upload a screen photo that your timer setting.
