@CyberSponk can you send a new report?
Not that view is not normal but not something I can fix. Probably a refresh of the webapp will be enough
@martijnpoppen, Cool App. I was looking at using the started /stopped charging to create a sleep / awake function but this is strictly charging, when battery full, it changes state to stopped charging.
Today I use activations from my iPhone where there is a function where phone is connected / disconnected to power that do work. Is it possibly to make a flowcard with this same function to Connect / disconnect power in the find my app?
Hi @Hans-Christian
Thanks
No that unfortunately not possible. I donāt receive that data from the API

I get a neat message from Apple that my account is being used, but adding it doesnāt work. It keeps running endlessly (see picture)
I restarted Homey, restarted the app, but nothing helpsā¦
Just tested find me via the browser no problem. And to my surprise tried my wifeās account and it works immediately. Shoot me but leakā¦
@Ad_van_Liempt i see errors but as mentioned in earlier posts above I have to figure out what goes wrong. Thereās no documentation for this API

Hi Martijn.
As you noticed, Iāve spamed you with reports. Still testing. I will execute my flow a couple more times before I enable and start testing with your refresh card.
Btw: Itāv been running with 15 minutes timer all night. No issue. It was after I extented the timer to 60 minutes and back to 20, that the app didnāt want any more.

Hi Martijn,
this topic is so active and I tried to read all the last posts, but Iām still not sure if this topic has already been mentioned, sorry.
From what I have observed the last two days, it makes no difference if the location tracking is enabled or disable regarding the battery consumption.
After this function was added, I deleted my old devices and added them again. But I didnāt notice any change. I didnāt change the server request, so it was 5 seconds.
Even after disabling the app, it seemed that the battery consumption was higher than without the Find My app. Maybe I should have restarted Homey and/or the smartphone.
I made these observations with the āoldā app version 1.0.8.
Iām the only one with this problem?
Unfortunately, I had to uninstall the app for now, because otherwise I would always have to take a portable power station with me. 
Hi @DirkG,
I am also concerned about battery usage. That is why I have been testing with higher update interval, to build up some battery usage history. But then we hit another wall, authentication, that still causing some issues he is looking into.

@DirkG no nothing has changed since then. The battery consumption is really high and Iām wondering if I need to keep this app live
I canāt fix that, youāll probably have the same if you keep the Find Devices - Apple iCloud open all day

But why seems to be the battery consumption unchanged when location tracking, I guess this is the part with the most battery consumption, is disabled?
@DirkG i donāt think location can be disabled. My guess is it doesnāt work.
Same when you go to iCloud.com.find itās always tracking the location
What a pityā¦
Do you know if there is another way to monitor the battery charge status of a MacBook?
@DirkG might be possible with a bash script which pings to a homey webhook?
But this app is quite too heavy Iām afraid

Does the Card āUpdate Device Dataā (German = GerƤtedaten aktualisieren) also get the current Gps Lat/Lon if location tracking (German = Standortverfolgung) is disabled?
@CyberSponk yes, because it seems that the location disabling doesnāt work
Hey Homeys!
I just found this app (through the Homey newsletter) and got really exited! 
Howeverā¦the discussion about the battery drainage is concerning. iPhone is not known for their battery capacity and having an app that eat mA is not that appealing.
I have read through the threadā¦but I was not able to find anything about if there is a workaround for this issue. So should I install the app or should skip this one if battery life is important for me?
Cheers
Fred
Hi @Paxman
Wait what? Homey newsletter? I didnāt see that
But no thereās no workaround see [APP][Pro] Apple Find My - #112 by martijnpoppen
You headlined the newsletter!
Too bad that there is no workaroundā¦ah wellā¦maybe Iāll try it anyway. I assume that one can uninstall it if it turns out that it is unbearable.
