i'm not sure i need the wifi functionality and hardware that requires a closed-source android app is anathema to me, however i recently discovered that the bluetooth communications of govee devices can be eavesdropped so you can log with a raspberry pi or integrate into home assistant or whatever.

Would you be able to explain this in plain English for the layman? What is this and how does it resolve the "eavesdropping"? Thank you in advance

You don't need to worry about it if you didn't understand what he said.
But essentially he's saying that the data the device sends to the app isn't encrypted and can be picked up by other stuff. Thus, you don't need to use the official app, and can integrate it into your home if you jump through a few loops.

Thank you for the response. How would the lack of data encryption impact me negatively? Doesn't it only send room temperature and battery information?

ncastro: eavesdropping, logging, raspberry pi, integrating and home assistant are positives. closed-source (proprietary) is a negative.
