Update to 3.0.4 and a reboot of Homey helped for me ---

Yeah i already know this is a solution. However, as developer, i would love to find out why a reboot fixes the issue, while an app update itself does not. An app update (obviously) means the app restarts. There should be zero difference between an app restart or an homey restart, it should not affect if you can edit an AVD, certainly not an existing AVD. (Their was a bug in 3.0.1 which didn’t allow to edit fields with a fresh/new AVD, but that already has been resolved). ---

I just released a minor bug fix for DC: When starting up the app, flowcards could be triggered (When Field has been set) falsely. This is resolved in the latest version. ---

Today I tried to install Device Capabilities on my Homey SHS (on macOS, MacMini Pro). But it doesn’t run, it crashed immediately after installing. The error it reports is: Error: EMFILE: too many open files followed by a long list of files. When I started using Homey a while ago I also had it installed to test it, then it worked fine, but I uninstalled it after trying. But now that I want to actually start using it, it crashes. Some help or insight is appreciated. ---

@Arie_J_Godschalk, It looks like the timers are no longer being displayed correctly since the latest update. The timers are running, even though this isn’t visible in the last screenshot.
