I’m only just starting to use home assistant, but what are the kind of things people do when integrating their car with HA? Is this for stuff like controlling charging speed with your solar panels?
I’ve seen people do things with the Tesla integration where they turn the car heaters on X minutes before it’s time to leave for work on a work day if the outside temperature is less than Y
The hyundai app is really unresponsive. So I’ve used the integration to create my own version of it. It also let’s me tie in other things like garage doors and security cams in one place.
So DIY home-assistant based cloud-relay is better than custom made purpose built cloud-relay by muliti billion dollar company? xD
Which is both hilarious and a testament to the power of Home-assistant and open source (and I suppose it says something about how much Hyundai cares about their app)

It’s crazy, right?
It’s because hyundai outsources the front end development to a different company (maybe a subsidiary) called bluelink.
The APIs are pretty good and, I assume, would be done by the hyundai team directly.
The issue really is the front end being bad ux and poor implementation of those apis
