1+2 = showing half of actual value.
2+3 = showing half of actual value.
1+3 = showing half of actual value.
1+2+3 = 1/3 of actual.
I havenât got a similar group to check, but if you go to the app configuration, for sensor values you can usually select the method of value calculation. Seems like itâs average now, should be sum. Maybe the setting is there?
Always assumed these settings were to be looked for in the device config, but this is less powerfull. So that is why these kinds of settings are probably in the app settings. Harder to find though.
Sorry, @niXta - replied to wrong author.

Ahh!
Didnât knw that existed 
But I canât choose âsumâ?
Also, âshow all values separatelyâ would have been nice as an option 
If you ask nicely 
and donate some 
Maybe Jamie sees a possibility to add âsum of all devicesâ option for the âCurrentâ sensor at a next release.
And why do you like to see the individual values of the grouped sensors also?
You can view those in their tiles alr.
Hi Jamie, I just sent a crash report.
80b0a8d7-e7b4-44a2-9622-63407a46c588
The group app gets paused every once in a while since a few days. This did not occur before.
FW v7.1.1
Group app v2.4.304
No hurries.
Would definitely donate to get it done
Separate for the voltage makes sense since itâs more of a constant/error warning and their averages doesnât really say much. One might show a bad value but have the sum be OK.
I use this card to get an overview of all meters together. Voltage is not that important though, you can remove it altogether without loosing relevant info. But since itâs there, it would be nice.
Hi all,
Today Iâm making some alarm groups and notice there is no way to group âwater alarmâ sensors.
Checked both the Alarm and Sensor categories, but unable to find it.
Anyone able to point out whether I might be missing something obvious?
Cheers!
I see, Rick.
Does selecting âAlarmâ > âCommon Alarmâ list your flood sensors for selection?
(I havenât any flood sensors, so itâs a guess)
I can group my two flood sensors.
Select Alarm:
Then Water Alarm:
I can now group my water alarm sensors:
If itâs just reacting to any water alarm that you need, then you do not need the group. If you create a trigger for a zone, you can select your entire home as the zone, and then you see an action card âan alarm went offâ. There you can pick the water alarm. It will then trigger on all water sensors you have in your home.
I figured out the issue!
It appears to be a problem with the Dutch translation.
Noticed that there were two âHittealarmâ categories.
The second one actually lists the Water alarm sensors
@Edwin_D Youâre correct. However, I want to integrate it with Node-Red for a dashboard, hence the need of an actual device that I can poll over MQTT.

Hi @Jamie
Is it possible to add an option to remove group device power measurement from the house total power?
My usecase is that I group the shelly 3EM L1-L2-L3 measurement devices into total sum value with group device. But this shows the power in the total power sum in the energy tap.
Hi all,
Iâm new to using . Very happy with the app thus far, as it will make my flows a lot less cluttered. However, I have a particular requestâŚ
I have a flow where I have a certain amount of lights (4 currently) switch to random colours every X seconds. The thing here is that each of them has its own separate random colour, rather than all the same colour.
With the current app I can find a flow tab to switch all lights to the same randomly decided colour, but would it be possible somehow to make a setting so they actually switch to their own separate random colour? (By chance of course some would be identically coloured from time to time, which is okay, but it gives cool effects if they donât have the same colour all the time)
Anyway, just asking if I could easily obtain something like that with the groups app. If not I simply stick to my current flow, but that one is a bit more of a hassle if I later on need to replace a lamp 
Thanks!
What comes to mind spontaneously. You could have the one main lamp change colors at random. The 3 other lamps should then follow the color of the main lamp. If you need different colors at other times, then have the flow deactivated.

Yes, but this flow will set all lights to the same colour (randomly chosen for the first light, and then adjusted for the other). This one could also easily do by simply setting the group containing the lights to a random colour.
However, what Iâm looking for is to set each light to a different random colour within the group (i.e. a group with 4 lights, where light1 gets random colour1, light2 random2, light3 random3 and light4 random4).
Currently I have a flow that works (setting each light separately to a random colour), but I was wondering if there was a way to do this more straightforward in .
Since you basically want to control each light separately with random colors, this only works if you send the command individually for each lamp. As I understood you, you already do.
Thatâs not possible afaik.
And⌠the point of a group is the opposite: one can send 1 command to all grouped devices at once.
It becomes one device to the flow editor.
If you want the grouped devices to receive individual unique commands, the only way to go is sending a unique command to every light. The group part is irrelevant.
Like you already created:

I just came to realize, I think you want to be able to set a scene for a bunch of selected lights.
Like, we have a scene-group called âgardenlightsâ.
IF 8PM
THEN gardenlights scene-group, run scene âpartyâ
This is kinda similar to how it can be achieved in the Hue app (with the bridge).
I havenât seen a Homey app with similar featutes and possibilities yet.
Cheers
I create my own Homey âscenesâ, then all of my âtriggersâ simply âstartâ the scene flow. (ignore the naming convention that just how I manage my flows as I have so many). Give me good reusability - DRY.
The trigger for that scene is a bit convoluted based of an action as well as a count down :
Personally I would do something like that - a single flow for you ârandomnessâ - then call that flow where ever you like, you could even hook it up to a virtual button - on click run the random color flow.

Iâve just released a new version of the group app, which I would appreciate help testing.
This version updates the group app to use the latest athom api-library.
I would be interested in you experience with the updated app
