Hi all interested. I’ve released an app.

> **[HomeService](https://homey.app/en-us/app/home.service/HomeService/)**
>
> Bring your home task reminders to Homey Flows

This app is for you, ike me, who wants to bring not so smart applications into Homey.  
First thing it supports:

**Air filters**  
In my case, I’m the owner of an air filter. This air filter runs service-hours on filters. It has a timer, after the timer runs out, warning is displayed which tells its time to change filters.  
My air filter takes two filter - so when stock runs low - I need to order more filters.

My air filter is well hidden and display is not visible. So I have to check occationally of warnings - due to the air filter is not smart and cannot push the notification.

This app supports “air filter”. For now.  
It allows you to add a “air filter” device. Setup last service and configure service-hours.  
In the device-info, you can see time since last service and time till next service.  
You can also setup stock - how many filters you have in store.

For your flows, this allows you to setup notifications and apply an action, when service has been done (also take number of filters off stock), which will reset the service-timer - the cycle is complete.

**Next release will (hopefully) include:**

- Battery reminder routines - for thermostats (not smart - but a “clever” reminder)
- Backup routines (Network-settings, )
- Update routines (Raspberry Pi, Xbox - you name it)
- Maybe routine for cleaning your oven or changing salt in your dishwasher or some other garage routines.  
All your flavors and your devices. Keyword: _Schedule and reminder_  
Hope this makes any sense.

NEXT FEATURE RELEASE

This next feature is in app submission/approval.

YOU REALLY WANT THIS - FEEL IT…

I’ve installed the app, it is going wrong by saving service hours.

Just pushed another hotfix (1.1.3 in the app store verification process). Sorry for this.

@Wilfred_Greven from your screenshot, you provided, it looks like the attended usage.  
You can rename the device to the name of your exact model/manufactorer.

Let me know if you want local translations, I can provide you the nexts in english for you to translate. An option if you like (and in case you think my english is bad) 🙂

@Kim_Kokholm:

I’ve just installed your app and have started testing. I plan to make several devices to plan my maintenance. Could it be possible to make a general ‘When’ flow-card with a tag?

That enables me to make 1 flow:  
When maintenance is required  
Then send push notification: Have you fixed device?

Hi @Neuron44

When conditions are hard to make. There is a lot to take in consideration because it the “start-event”.

For my flows, I use: when time: 20:00 AND “need maintenance” …

I could be wrong 😃

</div>

Thnx for the fast response. I figured that would be the solution, but that means that I would need a flow for every type.of ‘device’ that needs maintenance, right? Or.am I missing something?

As for now, devices does not update a tag or anything, so you can track back which device that needs service in combined flow as the two last examples in the following pictures:

Yes, one specific flow per device:

Another example:

or

I do like that you set the “start” - like time, months or anything and not triggers when you are at work or sleeping - so you specify at what time you want to do manual backups example on saturdays or so.

Hope that makes sense.  
You can list your example or usecase if you need possible input.
