Advanced Flow — Ask Me Anything

Detail perhaps; but can we have the Advanced Flow icon here too, @Emile?

If I were a developer… Shouldn’t be a difficult addition for the Athom developers. I’d think they appreciate feedback and improve the feature based on it. I’m sure I’m not the only one.

Status is something like “under processing”. After upgrading the firmware to 8.0 the new advanced flow is loading fine.

The question and worry I have, having received 15 confirmation emails about the purchase, was I charged 15 times for the single purchase???

Update is the good thing, but my 7xxx was also “allowing” to create advanced flow - actually a nice video + buy button. So, can i conclude, this (my current) firmware is/must also supporting the advanced flows?

No, you need Homey v8.0.0

Would be nice to see a standard tag with the flow name in it… quite usefull.

Yes, this status was also in my purchase list after some time - long sufficient in “Buy” to make additional payment.
For me, it finally comes one “Your order xxxx is confirmed” mail, and after a upgrade to 8 i see the empty background for advanced flow (hope, it working to).
But from my personal point - the PayPal claim is still in resolve - and for @Athom, can You look over the shop/orders - can not find the help button/instructions. Yes, may-be it’s my personal theme, but may also be, i’m not the alone there with same problem. Yes, there are nice support links to watch videos :wink: but when there is a specific (described above) problem - hmm, finally can find it - mail to (generic?!?) info ?!?

That would be a very nice to have.

Bought Advanced Flow without second thought, looks amazing!

As a commitedl user with a large number of Homey’s (10 ! … don’t ask) ) I really would appreciate being able to purchase a per ‘user’ volume license rather than per Homey.

Maybe a buy 2 (or 3) and get 1 free offer or 5 and get 2 free … as I’m sure user based licensing raises a load of sale/transfer problems.

You kind of do it with backups already but have no easy way to handle users with larger numbers of hubs.

I have purchased a single license but please don’t punish your loyal users this way.

hmmm i purchased it and now i have to update to v8.0.0 to get it work

In the past i had sometimes a lot of problems after a major update of firmware…

Who updated his homey to this version 8 and did you had any problems regarding devices not working anymore after the update, devices like;
Hue
aquara&xiaomi
switchbot
Tuya

I have several apps (but only Aqara from your list) and all of them work fine under v8. No problems at all.
I think the update is not too big. Only change according to the changelog is the one regarding advanced flows.

Questions I have: this is a per Homey purchase. So what happens if I factory reset it, what happens if I replace a broken one and what happens if I sell it?

Answers to a few of your questions:

A couple of things to mention…

  1. There are still some ‘under construction’ features in the Homey Web App that have been like that for a hundred years… - I hope working on the new Advanced Flow isn’t delaying those is it detracts from the overall professionalism.

  2. It’s nice to see Homey Pro still being worked on when I am sure there are so many things that need attention in Homey, Glad that Pro has not been forgotten and still getting attention. I do realise an additional income stream might have incentivised this somewhat. Please keep evolving Pro as a capable and leading product

Advanced flow is a great step in that direction…

How should Athom/Homey know how you created your flows? Now you have several independent flows you are calling one from another. That can’t be converted automatically.
