De app ziet er veel belovende uit. Nu heb ik een apikey aangemaakt en krijg ook een notificatie. Echter zit er geen plaatje bij maar alleen een url in de notificatie. ---

I reply in English, since this is an English topic. To receive the image, you need an action card from a messaging service that supports image via url. Like Telegram in the example below. Currently, I am still working on an image tag. ![IMG_4967](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/9/890d4868be12d95c3cdd967858500cf622fa462e.jpeg) ---

Do you happen to have an example of how I can do this. I have the telegram app, but I don’t understand how I get the url in the telegram app from your app. Will this become a variable? ---

Small tip. Create a text variable and put your apikey in here. As I did in also in my flow example. ---

Hi, First of all thank you for this app. Some new features look awsome and would like to see it. Unfortunately I don’t seem to be able to find version 1.0.9. I tried the test url, but only find version 1.0.8. What did i miss? Cheers, Eric ---

I have a question, is it possible to make such a flow that when you leave the house in a given time interval, the way to work is checked and the time is given, e.g. in the notification? [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-mapmylocation/88645.md?page=2)
