# Welcome to NS for Homey

**The NS app for Homey turns Dutch train data into something your home can react to.** Pin a station or a daily route as a Homey device, automate flows on departures, delays, cancellations, crowdedness or disruptions, and read it all back in Insights.

The app talks to the public NS APIs ([Reisinformatie API](https://apiportal.ns.nl/api-details#api=reisinformatie-api) and [Disruptions API](https://apiportal.ns.nl/api-details#api=Disruptions-Api)) using your own subscription key — your data stays yours.

## What you can do with it

* Get a notification 5 minutes before your last train of the night so you don't miss it.
* Turn on the lights when your train home leaves the station, dim them when it arrives at the next station.
* Have your speakers announce that the 8:19 to Utrecht is on track 5b instead of 5a.
* Automatically push your phone a warning when your usual commute has a disruption.
* Log delay minutes per route over time and visualise them in Homey Insights.

## Disclaimer

This is an unofficial, third-party Homey app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by NS Groep N.V. Train data comes from the public NS API which is provided "as is" — accuracy and uptime are out of this app's control.
