Hi I just setup the app on my HP23 and I have a Galaxy tab A tablet running Fully Kiosk. When I go to the device in Homey, I can refresh the photo from the camera, but when I close and open again it’s the old photo that’s shown and not the most resent one. Seems the refreshed image is never saved. What could be wrong? ---

Depends on what you think is wrong 🙂 or why should it be wrong? If you use something like this: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/2/627f43794b0c0f9fdecb480e3343f5e6aaf75da9.png) result is an up-to date picture from the camera (made at the moment the card has been activated). I do not think the picture you see in the device is used in the flows. ---

[idea] On the then card showing image and background color can you make it possible to select black as background as well? Also are you able to play audio ( i know you can do text to speech within remote admin) And another one can you create a card when screensaver is enabled / disabled? ---

As Elmar suggested, I think TextToSpeech is a great idea. Athom Homey 2023 doesn’t support TextToSpeech and Custom sounds. A dashboard can fill this gab. When using multiple tablets as dashboards, it creates the possibility to send speech to specific tablets. Brainstorming use-cases, I image a wakeup voice in the bedroom, notifying home-work traveltime in the living etc. For every usefull app I installed on Homey, I’m doing a donation. Where can I find yours? ---

What is the “toon dashboard” do? I was assuming when i have a screensaver en call this action it will show homey again but it will show the fully kiosk screen. So now what i am doing is on motion i need to use the “open application id” then it works but was I notice it’s refreshing the widgets a lot so it looks pretty buggy and slow. While when i touch the screen on the screensaver homey will show up without refreshing all the widgets. ![IMG_1696](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/6/f69895c62910b038f1d7fae41e5daa590df3910d.jpeg) ---

Hello everyone, I can’t get my wall-mounted tablet to work. I installed FullyKiosk Plus on my tablet about two years ago, along with Home Assistant. I switched to Homey and discovered this app that makes everything work. However, I can’t get it to work because it repeatedly disconnects from Homey.Only when I restart the app does it connect, but for a few minutes after that it becomes unreachable again. I should point out that the tablet has a fixed IP address and the network is very stable. I’m definitely doing something wrong with the fullykiosk. Can you help? Thanks. P.S. I used Google Translate for the translation. ---

Hello Andrea, Nothing personal, really, but I’ve learned to never believe this as a fact: > [@Andrea\_Mercanti](#): > > the network is very stable Homey and a wifi connection can be flaky in certain situations. So, 1. Which Homey model? 2. If 2023/2026: is it wifi connected? 3. You can check the network connection _for real_ with a [NetScan app](https://community.homey.app/t/47454) TCP Port device. Example: ![Screenshot_20251213_215007_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/6/16fb086d2d1587cbb87c17b333ccd2dbb2c76fa0.jpeg) .

I have exactly the same issue. Is it maybe a wrong setting in the Fully Kiosk Browser app which is interfering with Dashboard controller? ---

Unfortunately, my problem is still not resolved. I left the house at 6:45 a.m. and from 8:42 a.m. onwards, the tablet turns on every 9 minutes.

Hi Heinz I also use FullyKiosk and the Dashboard Controller. It’s been working perfectly for me right from the start. Surely you can achieve the same. What’s the flow for turning the display on or off? What triggers are you using? Presence detection? Motion detector? Display camera, etc.? We definitely need more information. Something must be triggering every 9 minutes. I would start by process of elimination and disabling all flows related to the display. Then create a very simple flow: If time X, then turn on the display. A second flow: If time X, then turn off the display. For the time, use a time you can check. For example: 3:00 PM on, and 3:05 PM off. Once that’s working, significantly increase the time interval to check if the 9-minute error occurs. Then continue. Expand the flow step by step until the 9-minute error appears. This might help you troubleshoot.
