Hi. I haven’t updated the app since 1.6.1. Can I trust that my dashboards are still working when I update to the latest version?
Also, I want to move from experimental to stable. Can I just install the stable version from the app page and everything is still there?
You should be able to just install the stable version (do NOT uninstall first )It should convert just fine, some elements might need re-aligning. The latest test version has a backup option to backup the Dashboard Studio Homey Configuration. Basically everything what you can configure in the Dashboard Studio settings inside the Homey configuration. This does not include flows, flow cards and everything inside the Dashboard studio web interface. Like dashboards and uploaded content like images. (Also @Amersfoort 
). Sorry guys currently on Holliday, so can’t give lots of support right now.
I want DashBoard Studio to show a map or my cars location.
This could be an integrated map, where I load Attitude/longtitude, but also an I-frame option.
Is this planned to happen?
Or does anybody have ideas as work-around?
Jumping in on this — a simple map/marker widget would be huge for me too.
I’m tracking two vehicles (one via a GPS tracker feeding MQTT/local variables, another via the VW EU Data Act portal) and my main use case is just showing where the car currently is on a dashboard. Right now there’s no way to do this in Dashboard Studio at all, so I’ve had to hack around it using another dashboard app’s “URL/HTML” widget pointed at a self-hosted webpage that polls Homey’s local API and renders a Leaflet map — works, but it’s way more plumbing than it should be for something this common.
A full open HTML/iframe widget (like @Olivier67 suggested above) would obviously solve this and more, but I imagine that comes with real security/performance tradeoffs given the wall-mounted/low-power devices this app targets.
Would a smaller, more contained version be easier to ship? Something like a basic Map widget that just takes a latitude and longitude (bound to any live value/capability/MQTT topic the same way other widgets already bind to data) and drops a pin on an OpenStreetMap tile layer. No arbitrary external content, no injected scripts — just coordinates in, marker on a map out. Feels like it’d cover 90% of the “where’s my car/pet/whatever” use cases people are asking about, with a much smaller surface area than a general-purpose webview.
Happy to help test if this ever gets picked up!
Something like this?

Hello,
First of all, thank you for this app.
I have a question about the status return of sliders.
I use Sliders to move my Blinds.
This works fine.
But when i move the Blinds from the Homey App the possision of the slider is not changed!!!
With button we have the option “State” but with the Sliders this option is not available.
Or am i doing something wrong???
Henk
Thank you.
This works!!!
Henk
I have another question.
How can i start a flow??
Henk
I already found how to do this, so no need anymore for this
Great, nice to discover how it works 
I do have another question.
What browser do you use on the tablet you use for the dashboard???
I now have Chrome on my Samsung Tablet A9 Plus.
But i keep the URL bar at the top, and i can’t find a way to get that off.
Perhaps someone can help me so that i only have the Dashboard and not anything from the browser into of it??
Thank you
Henk
I use Fully Kiosk browser on a Samsung A9 tablet
Hello Frank,
I never heard of this on, but it exactly what i wanted.\
Thank you!!!
Henk
@Satoer Could you indicate whether the confirmation functionality will become available in the software within the next two weeks? Otherwise, I will have to fall back on the existing, but complex, solution for approximately ten devices.
Hi Amersfoort. Sorry, this is not on top of the radar right now. Just came back from Holiday, and I am working very hard on V2. But I still have to do a lot of things before release. 
Welcome back Michel! I was a little quiet for some time, so much to do with my home battery and lots of things around the house. But I will pickup shortly. I have one issue, it’s already there for some time. The toggle to fit text into the textblock doesn’t work anymore. If I switch it on, my text disappears. Not urgent, but maybe for your backlog?
Hi Victor,
Do you mean the “Auto-Fit Text to Frame”? It seems to work here just fine.
Disabled:
Enabled:
Can you post the markdown text in a code block of the text that disappears? If it is dynamic text from Homey you can copy the contents that is being send in the data stream explorer “copy raw value”:
This seems to be related to the “Horizontal alignment” option. If you set this option to “Use typography settings” in the “Text & Typography” section, setting Alignment to Center for Paragraph (depending on the structure of the Markdown table), the values are displayed.
Something else I just noticed: if I want to define a header by typing in the Markdown editor
using | :- - -: | :- - -: | (2 times 3 dashes), this is the result (see dashes).
