Daikin is a Japanese heating and cooling maker. Its connected residential air conditioners and heat pumps use a Wi-Fi adapter or built-in module and are controlled from the Daikin Onecta app in Europe, with different apps in other regions.

Daikin units connect to a home Wi-Fi network and, in Europe, are managed through the Daikin cloud and the Onecta app. Older adapters such as the BRP069A and BRP069B series can also be reached over the local network by Home Assistant and openHAB, but sources we read say newer BRP069C4x adapters are cloud only, so what is possible depends on the adapter generation.
That suits people who want remote control, schedules and energy graphs, plus Alexa or Google Assistant voice control. It is weaker for Apple Home and Matter, where we found no official support, and for local automations on newer adapters. Features and the app itself also differ by region, so a unit bought in one market may not work with the app of another.

The current Daikin app in Europe. It shows all units linked to a Daikin ID account and covers Altherma heat pumps, Altherma gas boilers and connected air conditioners: monitoring, mode and temperature control, schedules, energy graphs, holiday mode and Alexa or Google Assistant voice control. Both the unit and the app must be online. Published by Daikin Europe N.V. Daikin's UK page says to find it by searching for Onecta in either store. The Android link uses the package name that third-party listings show for this app, and we could not load the Google Play page itself to confirm it.
An earlier name still used on Daikin's Google Assistant instructions, which tell users to link the Daikin Residential Controller skill in Google Home. Third-party listings show the same Android package as Onecta, so it appears to be the same app under its former name, but we could not confirm this from Daikin.
The oldest European app. Daikin says voice control is not supported in the older apps, and units from it must be onboarded to Onecta before they appear there. After that the older app can be removed.
The Australian app for split, multi-split and SkyAir indoor units fitted with a BRP072C42 wireless LAN adapter. It controls up to 10 systems, one adapter per indoor unit, from Android and iOS. Daikin's page does not mention voice assistants. Home Assistant's documentation also names the BRP072A42 for this app.
Home Assistant's Daikin page lists region-specific controllers and apps: BRP072A43 with the Daikin Comfort Control app in the US, the Daikin Airbase app for Australian BRP15B61 units, and SKYFi-based units with the SKYFi app. We did not read Daikin pages for these apps and found no store links, and we did not research Daikin's app for Japan.
An app mainly for installers. Daikin's UK page says homeowners only need it to register a unit when the installer has not, and recommends Onecta for control and energy monitoring.

| Connection | |||
| Wi-Fi | Yes | Daikin's Onecta instructions onboard a unit through a WLAN adapter, with SSID and key as the recommended method and WPS as the alternative. LAN adapters are mentioned only in passing. Newer BRP069C4x adapters are described by a Control4 driver vendor as cloud-only, and the Homebridge Daikin plugin page says Daikin's firmware can remove local access on them. We could not confirm either claim on a Daikin page. | Daikin Onecta getting started Control4 driver page Homebridge Daikin Local |
| Bluetooth, Zigbee, Z-Wave, Thread | Not mentioned | None of these are mentioned on the Daikin pages we read about Onecta and its adapters. | Daikin Onecta getting started |

| Google Home | Official | The Onecta listing says Google Assistant can set and read room temperature and set the operation mode, in English, German, French, Spanish and Italian, plus Danish, Dutch, Norwegian and Swedish. Daikin's FAQ describes linking the Daikin Residential Controller skill under Works with Google in the Google Home app, then logging in with Daikin credentials.

| Amazon Alexa | Official | The Onecta listing and Daikin's UK page name Alexa for main functions such as the temperature set point and operation mode, using an Alexa speaker or the Alexa app. We found no dedicated Alexa setup page from Daikin. | Onecta listing (App Store) Daikin UK apps page Alexa Skills store |
| Apple Home | Community | Not mentioned on the Daikin pages we read, so there is no official support we could confirm. The community Homebridge Daikin Local plugin controls Daikin Wi-Fi controllers over the local network and exposes them to Apple Home. | Homebridge Daikin Local Apple Home accessories list |
| Samsung SmartThings | Community | A community device handler by an independent author connects Daikin split systems with the BRP072A42 module (and reportedly BRP069A42) as a thermostat. The thread is marked obsolete and its last release was in November 2018, so it is likely unmaintained and we found no official support. | SmartThings community thread |

| Home Assistant | Yes | A built-in Daikin integration talks to the adapter over the local network (local polling) and supports BRP069Axx and BRP069Bxx controllers, Australian BRP072 models, the US BRP072A43, and BRP084Cxx units on firmware 2.8.0. It is maintained by the Home Assistant project, not by Daikin. A separate community integration, daikin_onecta, uses the Onecta cloud API through HACS and needs a Daikin developer account and your own OAuth app. It makes no claim of Daikin endorsement. | Home Assistant Daikin daikin_onecta (community) |
| Homey | Official | Athom publishes an official Daikin AC Airconditioning app that controls units by infrared from a Homey Pro or Homey Bridge in the same room, rather than through Daikin's Wi-Fi adapter. Its listing shows version 1.1.0 and was last updated about two years ago. A separate Daikin ONECTA app by ML Development, which is not Athom, uses the cloud for air conditioners, Altherma heat pumps and hot water tanks, requires Homey v12.9.0 or newer and a Homey Bridge, and needs units added to the Onecta app first. | Daikin AC Airconditioning (Athom) Daikin ONECTA (ML Development) |
| openHAB | Yes | The Daikin binding is in openHAB's add-on list. It connects to each unit by local address and supports BRP069A81, BRP069B41, BRP072A42, BRP072C42 and the Airbase BRP15B61. It does not mention Onecta. The binding is maintained by the openHAB project, not by Daikin. | openHAB Daikin binding |

| Control4 | Community | Chowmain publishes a third-party Control4 driver for Daikin Wi-Fi modules (BRPxxxAxx, BRPxxxBxx, BRPxxxCxx). The page says BRP069C4x models are not supported, citing cloud-only control. We could not confirm any Daikin or Control4 endorsement. | Chowmain driver page |

| Daikin developer API | Official | Daikin runs a developer portal with documentation and an API explorer for the Onecta Cloud API. Private developers need a Daikin Onecta account and must accept the developer terms. The page says the API is intended only for customers in the EMEA region, with a limit of 200 calls a day for private developers that cannot be adjusted. Daikin says only standard control and monitoring parameters are offered, and the page does not mention a local API. Separately, Daikin's US thermostat line has a documented local REST API, but it covers Daikin One thermostats, not these Wi-Fi adapters. | Daikin Developer Portal Daikin One Local API |
