Advanced flows are connected to the physical Homey, not to your account. As this is a replacement (by Athom?) I suggest you to contact Athom to transfer the subscription. ---

@Mariomark1541 asked if creating and editing Advanced Flows on an **iPad** (with a mouse) was possible. You say you got using Advance Flows in an iPad working? I suspect you mean only form a webbrowser on a desktop device? ---

Yeah I also meant iPad (but no mouse). I do it with a pen and works actually pretty accurate. You can visit my.homey.app through webbrowser on your iPad. I even created app icon for it and called it “Webversion”. ---

And that works well with **Advanced** Flows too? What browser are you using? ---

Yeah it works well. I don’t have much complaints about it. I am using Brave most of the time. Otherwise just Safari. ---

Are there more users who are able to work with Advanced Flows on an iPad/tablet? As far as I’ve seen here, @bayrambass would be the first… (Brave works as bad on my iPad as any other browser) ---

@Doekse Hi Abe, can you tell the whole community if you are working on a ‘share’ option for advanced flows? The whole community is making screenshots which we all do not like at all. ---

I’m much more comfortable with screenshotting, so it’s not all of us not liking it 😬 I also like you to point to this great community effort by @Arie_J_Godschalk , flows can get exported, but also get imported by sharing just a base64 string. Not shure Athom can top that 🫣😉 Examples: > [@The Flow Exchange(r) - Exchange Your Flows with Others!](https://community.homey.app/t/the-flow-exchange-r-exchange-your-flows-with-others/68981): > > If you have questions about the App Device Capabilities or seek help with an Flow or with the Flow Exchanger, please see the [Device Capabilities Topic](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-device-capabilities-enhance-the-capabilities-of-devices/43287).

Sorry did not know about this. I looked at it briefly but will get into it. About the screenshots I just mean that I do not know how to make a screenshot of a very big flow (I just have a 15 inch laptop) and also make sure it is readable. @Arie_J_Godschalk Great work 😜 ---

How could you know 😉 Yes I get the readability issue of “biiiiig flow canvasses” screenshots, most of my flows are smaller, but not because of that. My browser gets very sluggish, it’s almost freezing all the time when a flow canvas gets too big. ---

If the flow exceeds the height of the screen it’s possible to make a “scrolling capture” screenshot. Sometimes you need additional apps/programs, sometimes it is a build-in function. However, above a certain size it will be also difficult to read the flows. There are also apps available that perfectly combine several screenshots into one large screenshot. I use an app like this on my iPhone and iPad. However, I would also welcome a build-in sharing function like it’s possible with the standard flows. ---

Nederlands 1x drukken op de knop wanneer de lamp uit was: De lamp gaat gedimd aan. 2x drukken op de knop wanneer de lamp uit was: De lamp gaat vel aan. 3x drukken op de knop wanneer de lamp uit was: De lamp gaat uit 1x drukken op de knop wanneer de lamp aan is. De lamp gaat uit. Weet iemand wat ik verkeerd doe? Engels The goal of the flow is as follows: - Pressing the button once when the lamp is off: The lamp turns on dimmed. - Pressing the button twice when the lamp is off: The lamp turns on brightly. - Pressing the button three times when the lamp is off: The lamp turns off. - Pressing the button once when the lamp is on: The lamp turns off.

AFAIK you’ll have to draw every line. You can duplicate connected card(s), and then replace the cards with the right ones, but that might take up more time. You can consider grouping devices, to simplify flow creation. 10 grouped devices only need one line to command them / read the status of. Flows can be build in different ways, sometimes using an alternative card or an (other) app’s card can simplify stuff. ---
