So I can detect if I am home or not (Yes I know there are also other ways to detect if somebody is home, like detecting who’s on the network. In the end, my ultimate goal is not even using the app, but just updating my presence / geolocaton, what the app does. Should you download it Yes, Android devices can already be.

Can the companion app even access my instance through Tor / a SOCKS proxy, or in order to get the app working outside my home network, I really have to go through the hole punching / DynDNS path? Tor Browser for Android Alpha is a great application if you’re looking for more privacy and a safer way to browse the Internet. Which ultimately results in the questions:ģ. Does the HA Companion App even support connecting to / through a SOCKS proxy?.How would I connect to the SOCKS proxy from anything outside a Tor Browser? Because I obviously can’t connect to myonionurl.onion:9050, as it’s unreachable outside a Tor Browser.Although I don’t see it in netstat -tulpen. So it seeeeeems(?) that it could connect to it and the port is open. When I (just for fun / testing purposes) try to connect to myonionurl.onion:9050 using a Tor Browser, it says “this port is used for something else, blabla”. It also has the Container-Port mapping in the “Network” section set to 9050:9050. I’ve also activated the SOCKS proxy by just setting socks: true. So I’ve setup the Tor add-on successfully (which was not really hard ) and I can access my HA using a Tor Browser App. I tried searching the community, but couldn’t find something really.
