App for Homey Pro
Starlink Monitor
Keep an eye on the sky above your dish.
Available v1.1.1
The app reads your Starlink dish on your local network: throughput, latency, packet loss, obstruction, visible satellites and power draw. It shows where the dish points against where it would like to, draws the obstruction map the dish has built, and turns its alerts, from thermal throttling to stuck motors, into alarms and Flow cards. It also keeps its own log: availability over 24 hours, 7 and 30 days, each outage with its cause and duration, throughput and latency over a week. An unreachable dish does not count as an outage there: Homey can lose its route to the dish while the internet is still up.

Dashboards
Sky obstructions 291 px tall
The share of sky obstructed in large type and the share observed so far, beside the obstruction map built by the dish, the sky seen from above.
Outage log 342 px tall
The latest outages, with their cause and duration.
Latency, fifteen minutes 259 px tall
Latency over the last fifteen minutes, as a curve, with its average and its range.
Throughput 195 px tall
The current upload and download throughput.
Availability 307 px tall
Availability over 24 hours with a green, amber or red dot, the number and duration of outages, the same summary over 7 and 30 days, and the main causes.
Throughput, fifteen minutes 309 px tall
Throughput over the last fifteen minutes, as a curve.
Latency 195 px tall
The current latency and packet loss, with the dish's uptime.
Dish alignment 277 px tall
Where the dish points, and where it would like to point.
Satellites 195 px tall
The number of satellites visible to the dish and the share of sky obstructed.
Throughput and latency trends 339 px tall
Download and upload throughput, then latency, as curves over 24 hours or 7 days, with their averages. Gaps stay visible when the dish did not answer.
Flow cards
Homey writes an automation in three parts: when something happens, and if a condition holds, then do this. Anything on a lighter background, such as radius, is a parameter you set in the Flow. Every condition also exists in its negative form, which Homey flips with one click.
When 10
- The alignment error rises above threshold°
- The latency rises above threshold ms
- Sky obstruction rises above threshold %
- The download speed drops below threshold Mb/s
- The dish state changes
- An outage started
- An outage of at least threshold s ended
- The 24 h availability drops below threshold %
- The dish raised an alert
- A dish alert cleared
And 4
- The dish is ready
- The dish is misaligned
- The alignment error is above threshold°
- The alert alert is active
What's new
-
Version 1.1.0
Starlink Monitor 1.1.0 now remembers what your dish went through, not just what it is doing right now.
- Sky obstructions widget: the sky seen from above, with the obstructions your dish has mapped.
- Availability widget: uptime over 24 hours, 7 and 30 days, with the number of outages and their main causes.
- Throughput and latency trends widget: the last 24 hours or 7 days.
- The app keeps its own outage log, so the 7 and 30 day figures survive a restart. An unreachable dish is not counted as an outage: Homey can lose its route to the dish while your internet is still up.
- Dish alerts (thermal throttling, stuck motors, slow Ethernet…) now raise an alarm and can drive Flows.
- All tiles share a common layout: category, name, value and details.
- Newer dishes that report their serial number only in their status can be added again.
New Flow cards. When: An outage started, An outage of at least … s ended, The 24 h availability drops below … %, The dish raised an alert, A dish alert cleared. And: The alert … is active.
