Thanks to @MaxvandeLaar the app is now available in the community app store.  
(Not in the Athom App store yet…)

I have installed the app, seems to work fine for now. Thanks for this very welcome addition.  
In case any issues arise I will report it here.

Am using it in 3 different flows and have not run into any issue yet.

Still using it without issues.  
Just wondering though whether it would be possible to remove fields from the flowcards that are not relevant. See pictures for example:

That annoyes me too 🙂  
Its part of the pre-defined flowcard provided by athom.  
I did not find any reference in the documentation on this.

Good to hear!  
The 1st version is rejected by athom.  
Need to fix a few minor things to get it approved.  
(Need to change the name to a shorten name, remove the languages made with google translate. They only want proper translations…)

Yehoo, the [FlowComments](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/nu.fkey.CommentsForFlow/FlowNotities/) app is now also live in the athom appstore.  
Athom did ask me to make the name even shorter so now its called “Flowcomments” instead of “Comment for flow”  
Thanks to Dirk (@DirkG ) for the German translations

Never expected so many users would install my app.  
Getting close to 200 😀

Just came across this. I must of missed it…

This is a brilliant idea. 😊😊😊

Great work.

Why isn’t this feature in the default Homey OS… ??? 😲😲😲

You have to make so many flows in Homey you really need something like this to keep track of everything.

Also this would be great for system integrators that supply and deploy multiple Homey’s to multiple customers and locations. Would be invaluable for keeping profiles for each location for commercial deployments …

Athom should pay you. They should put this into the Homey OS… 😋

</div>

What would also be ideal is to be able to have the ability to affix a note just below the title of the flow. A note that is able to define the flow as a whole. eg “This turns on the garage light for 10 minutes”

.

This is probably something that Athom would need to code themselves and wouldn’t be accessible by 3rd party dev’s …

Apperently Athom recognized the need, so for advanced flows they build it in

My intention is to get this app to SDK3.

It started as a “fun thing to learn coding” during my holiday.  
Did not expect so many would use it 😀

@DaneedeKruyff already did the updates in a pull request, many thanks!  
Now find some time to figure out again how to get this app released.

A [test version](https://homey.app/en-us/app/nu.fkey.CommentsForFlow/FlowComments/test/) is now available.  
This version supports SDK3 and the new homey pro (2023)

Its already tested by @DaneedeKruyff and works fine on both standard and advanced flows.

Many thanks to @DaneedeKruyff for the support on this
