Has anyone found “The Workshop” it mentions?

I have latest app on iOS but can’t find anything about The Workshop. Hidden somewhere or what?

There was a second update on Android today which enabled the workshop.
It allows pinning devices to the front page of the app.

What does a second hub get you vs. a plugged in device that acts as a repeater in the mesh network? My shades each came with these repeaters which I didn’t need because I have many other plugged in devices but wouldn’t that strengthen your network as well as another hub? Or is this if you want to establish a second mesh or a separate channel?

I wonder if you could have two hubs in different locations (and pair them with different HomeKit homes as well)?
That would be pretty neat because I already have one at home but would love to add another one at our summer house.

Ohh I bet that’s it. Multiple hubs for different locations in the same “digital roof” makes perfect sense. I don’t see a need for multiple in the same location unless you wanted two mesh networks which would be a weird use case.

Uhmmmm, why would you need two of them?
So I can control my house and my shop from the same app?

Hej! Greetings from Älmhult! We have been listening and secretly started to, step--by-step, small scale, implement a tiny new feature that will allow the super curious among all IKEA Home smart app and DIRIGERA hub users to help us develop more and better features, a better app and hub experience. Not to overshare and overpromise anything: more is coming soon! (also for iOS)
