The list of models is not shared by govee, so you will have to try.

Govee thermometer:  
i added a second device and readded the first one.  
Observation during the last 20 days: constant deviation of exactly 0,1°C between Govee app and homey, which is not an issue, but also not understandable.  
So maybe there is some rounding issue or anything else…

I just installed the v2.12.2 and it seems like when it switch on/off the hexa lamp the app crashes. It reboots after a while, with sometimes the wrong status. It can think that the light is off while it is on.

Offcourse.

Maybe the problem is only with the local api?

Yes it was indeed only with the local api. Thanks for the quick report. I refactored a piece of code to improve cleanups when devices got deleted and just did not test it well enough ☹, I just published a new version to fix this. And tested with my local devices 😉

That was a quick response. Thank you. It seems it doesn’t crash the app, but the hexa doesn’t switch on anymore.

Can you restart the Govee app in Homey? See if that solves it now?  
Your log is clean, I see no errors there.

@Rick_den_Otter and @Davide_Zamo a fix for this issue is just been released. It was a timing issue, while storing the new setting I also download the cloud capabilities for this device and store them in the settings also. But Homey doesnt like that since it was still storing the first setting. So I offloaded the second one into a timer that runs after 1 second after the first is changed. So it seems to work now nicely in sequence.
