Home Information Management

This topic describes the API methods for Android to query and manage home information. These API methods can be used to implement a bunch of features. For example, create a home, query a list of homes, query home information, modify home information, query home weather information, and set devices and member groups for homes. You can also register listeners to listen for changes in home information, or unregister the listeners.

Functional description

• IThingHomeManager provides the capabilities to add a home, get a list of homes, and listen for changes in home information. The class ThingHomeSdk.getHomeManagerInstance() is called to implement these features.

	*
	* A notification is received to indicate that the mobile phone is connected to the Tuya Cloud.
	* On-premises data might be different from the data on the server, or the device might not be controlled.
