[APP][Pro] < group > (3.2.4 - Stable)

When installing this version to my 2019 homey it says: [Incompatible_app_version]
Is that what you mean with enabling it for v8 apps??

Yes, its not currently enabled for older homey devices.

Tested on my 2023, installs without issue, can make new groups (tested ā€œlightsā€ only) and all settings work. Previous groups (migrated from my 2019) show up, but donā€™t work, canā€™t switch them on/off.

Hi, I would be happy to test the 2023 version. Where can I find it and how can I install it?

Please scroll a few posts backā€¦

@robertklep thank you, I thought the links to the group app in the earlier posts were to the old version, didnā€™t recognize it as test versions. Thanks again. I am going to test it.

I have opened to group app test channel to people running older homey devices.

If the groups do not work , please make sure to send me an diagnostic which includes which group you attempted to control, which devices are in it - and if any at all worked.

Note that this test version still does not include sensors/alarms, I am hoping to add them back in very :soon:

Hi Jamie, thanks for your work!

I just tried the sdk3 version on my Homey early 2016 and my Window Coverings group breaks:

Thanks everyone

@Sharkys thoes are ā€œsensorsā€ next time I get some free time, Iā€™ll add them back in should be rather simple, Iā€™m just thinking of the best approach, to keep things easy for new users.

@Retrospected the error report you sent through didnā€™t provide any info sorry (was completely empty).

Two questions which will help me :

  1. Are you able to create a new window coverings group or ie was it the migration that broke it or is it broken across the board?
  2. When you say its broken - does it throw an error, show as unavailable, or does the group just not work?

  1. For Window Coverings i donā€™t see my original devices listed. I only see the old [offline] group. However if i add a group of categorie ā€œ JaloezieĆ«n & Lamellenā€ i can add the devices in a new group just fine.

  2. the old group is there but shows as ā€œunavailableā€

Thats a bit odd, its almost like its a different device class and there is no driver for it.

Are you 100% certain that it was a window covering and wasnt set up as ā€˜otherā€™?

I know Iā€™m not being asked but I confirm I saw my blind covering groups in 2.5.3 and also latest test version - at least there was no ! sign :wink: Not sure if you will find confirmation in the debug log I sent you yesterday also not sure it helps with the case of Restrospected

In my case @Jamie was right: my group is actually configured as ā€œotherā€

I tried to find the settings to change the devices in an existing group. App says: go to homey setting page and than moreā€“> settings ā†’ group.

But the more section doesnā€™t exist and going from the main settings page to settings and looking in the apps section the app is not in the list.

Am I overlooking something?

@Eric_Richters

Also need to add ā€˜otherā€™ devices as deprecated items, to allow older flows to continue working.

I tried to remove a device from an existing group today. The group app says: ā€œError: group.setSettings is not a functionā€:

@Joost_Else Please read the previous post in the thread.
