It seems Homey Pro does not have an output message queue. If I generate several push messages, some with Images from a Synology camera, then messages randomly are lost i.e never received.

Having a stable output queue would be very helpful if several advanced flows generate messages at the same time.

Homey’s flows have been broken for a long time, when you have multiple action cards that run at the same time, or multiple flows that run an action card at the same time, some random card actions just get lost. Not just with push messages, also with sending commands to devices.

Since this issue has existed for many years now, we have to assume Athom is unable to fix it.

Try “Advanced trigger” and select “Sequential” as execution. All calls will be handled one after each other.

Hi Anders,

Thank you for this suggestion! Will definitely try the “Advanced trigger” app.

Thanks for the feed-back Robert. Not a good sign that the issue has been around for so long, but good to know I am not alone in having this issue…
