I suggest you reach out to Athom with your request, via [https://homey.app/support/](https://homey.app/support/). The sustained value-functionality is not app specific, but a Homey wide functionality. Currently limited to numeric capabilities only.

There is an alternative though: the [Device Capabilities](https://homey.app/en-nl/app/nl.qluster-it.DeviceCapabilities/Device-Capabilities/) app provides a flowcard to check for sustained values. It also works with yes/no and text values, in addition to numeric ones.

Also check this post (in Dutch) for screenshot and more info:

> Je kunt ook de specifiek hiervoor beschikbare flowkaart van [Device Capabilities](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/nl.qluster-it.DeviceCapabilities/Device-Capabilities/) gebruiken. Die is niet beperkt tot numerieke waardes, maar werkt ook met tekst- en ja/nee-waardes. Ook kun je de trigger blijven herhalen, zolang de conditie zich voordoet.
