When a new device is created and you don’t pick an icon, it can’t ever be changed or so is seems. Can’t you just assign the default icon as a custom icon at device creation? That way you can always ajust it afterwards.

With old devices, not with new once: you will always be able to edit the icon.

Not on my end…

New device, didn’t pick an icon. App settings doesn’t allow me to upload/change anything for that new device. I can only pick the the default DeviceCapabilities icon, of default Homey icons when changing the icon.

How did you create one without picking a icon, assuming you have the latest version and you just created those?

I found another minor issue, when selecting a “IF” card you can choose between 2 “when a button …” cards, instead of 1 being the “when a button …” and the other “when a Yes/no capability…” cards, the functionality is right (top 1 is the yes/no one), so it is just some text error.

Solved in next test version.

I can’t seem to create text fields; the button for text fields does nothing. Is that an issue on my end, of a bug?

The reason I wanted to create a text field is because even if you set a number field to display with 2 decimals, if the second decimal is 0 it’s show with only one decimal. For currency that looks odd.

Update to Test to resolve the 3 issues, and set a name during creation (so you don’t have to rename them).
