Hi all. I have added some Homey widgets (favourite flows) to my android, but the widgets keep losing their associated flow: it says the flow name with a ‘play’ icon and runs the flow when touched. Then after a while the widget loses its name, and touching does nothing… until I re-associate the widget with its flow. This happens with all my homey widgets, and it’s driving me nuts… so much so that I have to find an alternative smart app whose widgets actually work and STAY WORKING.

Please please fix this, as it makes the widget useless

UPDATE: I did what I didn’t want to do: I removed all my (unusable) homey widgets, and replaced them with IFTTT widgets instead. Please can someone fix this (or share this problem with whomever needs to know)

Same here, since I have a new 2023 Homey pro. Can you tell me more about your solution please.
