# Frequently Asked Questions

> **Q1:** Does this app work on my Homey?  
> **A1:** Homey Pro: **YES**  
> **A2:** Homey (Early 2016): **YES**  
> **A3:** Homey (Early 2018): **YES**  
> **A4:** Homey (Early 2019): **YES**  
> **A5:** Homey (Early 2023): **YES**  
> **A6:** Homey Cloud (Bridge): **NO**

> **Q2:** Why can’t I pair my AirTags  
> **A1:** This app uses the same API as [Find Devices - Apple iCloud](https://www.icloud.com/find). Therefore you can only track devices.

> **Q3:** Can I connect multiple Apple ID’s?  
> **A1:** Yes! You can add as many as you want.  
> **A2:** If you have multiple devices connected to 1 account and if you connect these to Homey, Homey will make sure to only call icloud once for these devices.

> **Q4:** I get emails that somebody logged in to my iCloud  
> **A1:** This app uses the same API as [Find Devices - Apple iCloud](https://www.icloud.com/find). When you login there you’ll get a email as well.  
> **A2** : The app tries to re-use the session as much as possible, but sometimes it has to login again. Then you’ll get a email.  
> **A3** : You’ll also get a email when you restart Homey/this app. Then the app has to login again.  
> **A4** : Tip: Create a rule in your mailbox for these emails

> **Q5** I changed my password, do i need to update all my devices?  
> **A1** : No only repair 1 device connected to that account. Homey makes sure that all connected devices get updated as well

> **Q6** Can I get my location in a map/image?  
> **A1** : Not with this app, but there’s a nice app for that: [MapMyLocation | Homey](https://homey.app/a/nl.lrvdlinden.mapmylocation/) → ([Support](https://community.homey.app/t/88645))

> **Q7** Is my password stored in Homey?  
> **A1** Yes, your login details are kept in Homey to make sure we can login again once the session expires.  
> The login is saved in the [Device Store](https://apps.developer.homey.app/the-basics/devices#store) and also encrypted

> **Q8** The battery on my Apple devices is drained quicker  
> **A1** Yes this was also discovered during testing. Due to calling the API everytime the location of your devices is requested.  
> Requesting a location from your phone is battery heavy.  
> To mitigate this you can make use of the set server interval flowcard. With this card you can reduce the calls and maybe turn it off at night for example:

> **Q9** Why does this app work without 2FA?  
> **A1** The Apple Find My website ([Find Devices - Apple iCloud](https://www.icloud.com/find)) is the only site which doesn’t require a 2FA. So with this app Homey only has access to Find My and can’t login to other services without a 2FA code.

> **Q10** How to change the interval  
> **A1** There’s a interval flowcard on app level:

Hope there will be flow cards according _ **Device is charging** _.  
With those flow cards it will be very easy to set the “Sleep/Awake” status.  
I know, this can already be done by Apple Shortcuts and Webhooks/“Start a flow”, or via a Smartplug, which I actually use and it’s 100 % reliable, but it’s an another possibility.

@DirkG small sneak peak in to the flowcards 😉

Motion alarm is equal to the device started moving.

I’ll add more flows so you can compare locations your self. Like a 100 meter radius from the SuperMarket or arrived at work etc

I hope the emails will be at a minimum, running the app right now with 2 Apple ID’s to test it 🤞

@flaviuvlaicu its really good like I it can detect up to 5 meters accurately.

Only thing I’m wondering if this take a lot of battery. But let’s test that when it’s in beta

 ![IMG_9664](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/6/a6b26dda074d16549eb1e7c3f8458549ab80328b.jpeg)

</div>

So after testing today I get the feeling that the battery of my iPhones drain quicker

This is a phone which I didn’t use today charged it and it is 83% right now. So it seems that the checks to FindMy is draining the battery quicker

 ![IMG_9666](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/f/ff782631d90c7bc9342d237ce02314495b2fc442.png)

The BETA can be tested! 😃

> **[Find My](https://homey.app/en-nl/app/com.apple.findmy/Find-My/)**
>
> One app to find it all.

One thing i’ll add soon is the option to configure the interval of how often the server gets called.  
This way you can prevent over communication with the server and the risk of draining your battery.

Please let me know any findings you have!

FYI : @DirkG @flaviuvlaicu
