Hi @Terryble66
Please post in this topic by mentioning Jamie. We all have the same issue.
Hi ZvFreak
indeed, help is welcome. Also don’t know if it has effect but i’m using OTP with my amazon account.
From where i need to start troubleshooting ?
Thanks
I have the exact same issue, in EU server.
Did anyone solved it?
I also have this problem and it seems to increase in the last couple of months. In the past it got problems once a week, now it’s daily and its very often not even working if the app show „connected“. Im using it very heavily to get information about status changes but it’s not reliable anymore.
Is it possible to help by providing any logs?
Anyone have a solution yet?! Its starting to get annoying.. having to restart the app every day almost.. sometimes twice a day! My spotify is connected via the spotify app.. But it plays on the alexa speakers around the house. That too requires a restart - So i am certain its an alexa problem.
Strange i don’t have this problem,for me the connection between Alexa and Homey never fail…
I read somewhere about people having 2 profiles being connected being a problem. While I dont have 2 profiles - I have connected alexa in a 2-way of sorts. One to list the Echo devices on Homey via the alexa app and the other via the skills on alexa to import some devices connected exclusively on homey to alexa. I dont have much need for importing devices to alexa from homey, so decided to disconnect that skill today, in the hope that it sorts things. Will update here in a day or 2, if that fixes things.
You are aware of the fact you can automate app restarts as well? Enable Experiments > Power User, and additional flow cards appear under “System”.
I DID NOT! Thank you for this. On my way to do the same!! this is helpful!
Didnt find it under system. Found it under apps. Thanks for this. this should help. CheerS!
Ah, I think it’s different for Pro 2019 & Pro 2023!
This is pointless. It’s not the restart. You have to reconnect it to one of the 3 Alexa servers. Which you can’t automate in Homey.
Just to update here! my ticket has been re-opened and Athom is looking into the issue! I would suggest to anyone with this issue just log a support ticket as it will help put some weight behind the issue for all of us. Carl I know you have.
