Hello Jamie! Thanks for sharing this very useful app! I am not able to find any routines to add to the flows in the list shown after the selection 
 is there any action to be done to complete the procedure? Thanks in advance for your answer. ---

@SandroMari80 As I mentioned you need to make sure that you have given the routines a name. I cant understand most of the words but it doesnt look like the image you supplied have been named? See attached image I went through and named the first three routines at the top 
 the ones underneath DO NOT have a name ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/a/7ade5c0bf731539c645fc3d86bcdba2849e54e5e.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/6/36b17056593c64e6c7373890cb68c89b6d84b1f9.png) @Ron_van_Muilekom can you please supply an image?

 supporting colours is hard 
 really hard - I would have to somehow convert the homey colour wheel into “words” . I doubt it’s worth the effort. Smart lights from Alexa will likely go out after the public release of the app. As before - my app won’t update the status of the dim or power if they change external to homey. ---

Hi @Jamie , Thanks again for your great app. I dont know if you already answered this question but does the Echo show 8 get supported in the future ? Grts, Ron ---

@Jamie Wow. That looks very good. And that looks more than enough for me. I do not have any color lights from Eaton xComfort. Only on/off and dim devices. I think I don`t need Homey to know if they are changed externally. I just want to have the ability to change it from Homey. The best for me would have been an app made for xComfort. But this I guess will work almost as good for me. Thanks again ---

@Ron_van_Muilekom & everyone, I know this has become a long thread, but checkout the first post. I try and keep it updated. Earlier in the week I added a FaQ section : > [@Jamie](#): > > ## Frequently asked questions (FAQ) > > **Can I add a new alexa device?** > > Yes I can add new devices, but I will require first the assets and device information in order to add it. > > 1. SVG of the new device in the same aesthetic as the other icons I have. > 2. An image of the device ideally 2000x2000px in the same aesthetic as the other images I have (white background etc). > 3. The name of the device, and its average power usage. > 4. The unique identifier of the device, I can normally find these out with some help and a diagnostic report. > 5. Someone to test each and every feature of the app upon new device and report back if any features do not work. ---

Well it didn’t update or see and update but I installed again from the old link and got the new version. Removed my devices and added them again as suggested and after some initial strange things (no tts) but after a restart of the app it worked. Really like the new voices as a feature. Will keep you posted, great work! ---
