In the \< group \> app add a device and select “Blinds” then “Window Coverings Set”, then you should see your roller shutters ---

I just added my smoke detectors to a group to see if I get the same problem and it triggered my flow that switches all the lights on when a smoke alarm occurs 🙂 Edit: Even more confusing, I don’t even have s flow that switches all the lights on, like I thought I had. Edit 2: Ah found it. It’s triggered by “A Smoke alarm turned on” so that explains it. When the group was added it was initialised on the alarm state and then switched off. ---

Thanks Adrian! In my case the alarm triggers around the same time at night without any “real” trigger/alarm. So let’s see what happens on the long term with your test. ---

Do you auto-restart the group app at night? B/c that results in an Alarm/No alarm status while there isn’t any alarm. ---

No, I have not configured Homey to re-start the group app daily. Today the alarm did not go at all. So perhaps there is something ad-hoc that triggers it. ---

Well, it didn’t activate last night, which was probably good as all my lights would probably have come on 🙂 ---

OK. Clear. Btw, by alarm I meant a sensor reporting a motion or an open contact. Restarting the group app results in fake motion or open contact signals. Which ofcourse _could_ trigger your alarm system😝 ---

What about having home restart at midnight? The timing is suspicious, 12:04 every day. There are no schedules or reoccur items in the groups code, but we have seen a restart messing with the start up state …. ---

I think you are right, I just did a check around my flows and it seems I have scheduled (forgotten) a restart on Wednesdays and Fridays. I will simulate that restart and see if that triggers anything. But it makes sense (it takes about 4 minutes to boot a Homey). Can we have the group app ignore this “false” alarm at start-up? I just changed the flows and tested while re-starting Homey, and indeed I got an alarm. I will try now using the IF card Home - An alarm turned on - type Smoke alarm. That would be a work-around for the group app with smoke sensors. But then I need to remove any smoke sensor group on forehand, otherwise that would trigger that card as well 🙂 ---

Just FYI, you can let Homey notify you if it has restarted (or started b/c of a power outage). Example ---

Hi, i made a group, but put the wrong blinds in it, i adjusted it via settings, but when i loon in the device-settings its still wrong, however in the groupsettings from homeymenu its right. Cant check if works correctly, not at home atm. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/1/71e0ccf800dffeb8b875ddffe3e4dacabbee0cde.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/8/f82eb364b511a323184fe2a9bc8e1d89207e8051.png) ---

I discoverd the same issue. it works as expected, but is a bit confusing. An app restart should solve it. ---

If I group energy meters, the Amps show the wrong value. Is it just me? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/5/6/56de60cada5f28fd91aae1d0ca438015290090cc.jpeg) ---

If power = current \* voltage Then power / voltage = current 355W / 235V = 1.51A But, the power could be off, and the current correct. What values do your energy meters report individually? ---

I am re-organizing my Homey and I am using this app for more groups. A few things that I encounter: - when selecting remote control, the next screen is empty and I cannot create it. - more devices would be nice, watercooker is oddly specific, but others are missing. I was selecting “remote” for our bed, but that didn’t work. There is no other item that fits. ---

The device types available in the group app are based off the device types available in homey. I agree they can be a little odd at times but I suspect they have done it the way they have to only diverge when required and minimise tech debt ---

The power and the voltage is correct, the current is incorrect. All values are correct for the induvidual sensors measured. 3 of them are grouped together. Would be nice with an ”energy preset” too 😊 ---

That’s odd. I’m asking myself, for comparison: if you create similar groups, and then - one for sensor 1 + 2 - one for sensor 1 + 3 - one for sensor 2 + 3 This way you can discover which sensor pair(s) in a group report the wrong current value. If all 3 groups report the wrong current value then it must be some kind of little group app bug maybe? Unfortunately I can’t reproduce it, while I have no device with Voltage, Power and Current sensors.
