    I have a reply from Sonoff:

    As my last mail update, we will optimize the procedure of device configuration.
    More new products will be available with DIY Mode, what we can tell is the new product of Dimmer D1, now pre-order stage.
    We do not have plan to make TH10 and TH16 with DIY Mode.

    We made a decision to update firmware for the DIY MODE product to optimize the first step of setup.
    As you suggested, the device will be an AP and the phone can access the device to change the ssid and password.
    Regarding temp and humidity sensor - I know some Sonoff devices support one wire temperature sensors, but I doubt about humidity. I'll ask.

    I'll ask Sonoff, but recently they are really slow. Probably I'm not supposed to do that - but I do recommend Shelly products, they are a bit more expensive, but 100 times better.

    As I said before, only devices which have the following picture on their product page support REST API:

    Using my plugin yes, because DIY firmware provides REST API which I can use to control them directly. You can contact Sonoff (I'll give you email in private message).

    Another option is to replace frimware and install MQTT server, but that's not for everybody...

    Here's the reply from Sonoff, enjoy

    BASICR3, RFR3 and MINI have the DIY mode and they are also DIY smart switches.

    DIY smart switches is a product type, it means users can DIY their appliances smart.

    DIY mode is REST protocol.

    There is misunderstanding between them

    They are - when they started shipping first BASICR3 DIY - it didn't have DIY firmware. It took a lot of arguing and a few months to get it working...

    And they are still working on the DIY firmware (I hope so)

    [EDIT] I sent email to Sonoff developer, but I suspect that this page is just their dream.

    If you check page for each DIY device, i.e. BASICR3 - you should see:

    I intend to support all Sonoff devices with DIY firmware. By DIY they mean local control (REST API) - without using cloud server.

    Currently Sonoff have only three DIY devices:

    https://www.itead.cc/sonoff-basicr3-...rt-switch.html
    https://www.itead.cc/sonoff-rfr3.html
    https://www.itead.cc/sonoff-mini.html

    Also they are working on dimmer switch, which is very welcome.

    So my plugin will support new DIY devices when (if) Sonof make DIY firmware for them.
