Hi @martijnpoppen

I do not seem to get the event/snapshot images to work and get the newest image. Snapshot image stays on the placeholder, even when running a flow

Any clue on how to troubleshoot this? I use the doorbell with hb3

Thanks!

@r.7255 please make sure to run the snapshot flow first before sending a report

Now I can’t see anything

Hmm, unfortunately the event and snapshot images in homey did not. Any way to debug this?

running the same flow for another eufy cam also does not replace the placeholder image with a new image

@r.7255 you are on the test version can you install the live version of the app and see if that works?

Using the live version gives me this image as snapshot:

**Hey @martijnpoppen,**

First of all — thanks for the awesome Eufy app! 👏 It usually works great, but right now my backyard camera seems to have gone a bit… shy.

Instead of a live feed, I’m getting this stylish _“Eufy Placeholder Image”_ — very modern art, but not exactly what I was hoping to see. 😅

Any idea what’s going on here?  
Is my camera taking a break, or did I mess up a setting somewhere?

Thanks again for your great work and all the time you put into these integrations — they really make Homey even better! 🙌

Cheers,  
**Willie**

Hi, I can see why they were removed in the first place, but like some others said in the meanwhile, they don’t seem to update after events either.

@r.7255 the live expect that you enable snapshots in the device settings . That is removed in the test version. Can you do that first and try again?

@martijnpoppen So sorry, but the battery drain issue I saw in all the 3.38.n versions is still there in 3.39.0. This graph shows the effect of:

- Starting with 3.37.0
- Installing 3.38.4
- Reinstalling 3.37.0
- Installing 3.39.0
- Reinstalling 3.37.0

 ![26-10](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/8/688d34ac4b8352a960f0434b28235b9c37a69f24.png)

The gradient of the battery discharge has been the same for each version suggesting the underlying cause hasn’t been affected by the different versions.
