Hi Robert, My Nefit is not connecting, it gives the message below. What can i do? Homey kon je Nefit Easy niet vinden, of dit apparaat is al toegevoegd, controleer of de gegevens hieronder kloppen en probeer het opnieuw. Hint: mocht je de gegevens niet meer herinneren, kijk op de voorkant van je Nefit Easy handleiding. Kind regards, Ronald ---

The Nefit app doesn’t handle certain characters in passwords properly (like `!`, `%` and `#`). Are you using one of those in your password? ---

Hi Robert, Thanks for the Nefit app! I’ve a question about it. The only 2 actions in the Flow it has, is to set a temp and a modus. Unfortunately, the ‘modus’ setting, is not the option to set it in Clock-modus and/or Manual-modus. Is there a way to add this? Thanx in advance. -Ferry ---

The “Stel de modus in” action is a bit silly, because its values are useless for the Nefit. This card is automatically added by Homey because it uses the “thermostat\_mode” capability. I’ll try and see if I can remove that card, and replace it with something more useful. I’ve added an issue [here](https://github.com/robertklep/nl.nefit.easy/issues/3). ---

Hi Robert Same issue overhere,… (Homey kon je Nefit Easy niet vinden, of dit apparaat is al toegevoegd, controleer of de gegevens hieronder kloppen en probeer het opnieuw) have no “certain” characters in my password. Nefit easy is working Ok with the Nefit easy app. Password, serienummer, and toegangscode ok,… checked this several times. Tested these values also by removing app on phone and reinstalled the app, with this I check in my optinion all entry values. Rebooted homey. Removed and reinstalled your app version 3.20. But still same error/waring and no Nefit in Homey 8-( Version of my Homey is 1.5.13-RC 11. Please advice next steps,… With regards Marcel ---

I’d have to check if there’s a maximum size for the password. If you password is longer than, say, 8 characters, could you try and see if it works if you set a password that’s _at most_ 8 characters? ---

> [@Marcel\_Huijten](#): > > Check this tomorrow,… password now is 12… let you kown asap. It could be that the official Nefit app (iOS/Android) will truncate a password to 10 characters, so a quick test could be to see if the Homey app works if you just use the first 10 characters of your password. If that doesn’t solve the problem, testing with a new password that’s 10 (or 8) characters max is the next step. ---

Thanks for testing! I’ll add a warning that passwords should be 10 characters or less. ---

love this app, thank you for creating it, it helps us make our system more efficient. I have one question , the outside temperature has quite significant drops every few hours. sometimes of more than 10 degrees . After a short period of time this goes back to normal, see attached chart. The Nefit unit gets its data from the internet, so I was just wondering if this a problem with the Nefit-homey app or with the data it gets ? ![Chartnefit](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/3/31f31de297c8c925eac07e0c6280c4d1045efec5.jpeg) ---

My graph looks exactly the same, so I think it’s related to the service that the Easy uses to determine the outside temperature. ---

ok , thanks for the reply, then I’ll look at other parameters for optimisation 🙂 ---

You could consider buying a cheap temperature sensor that works outdoors. I have a [Xiaomi Aqara sensor](https://www.gearbest.com/access-control/pp_626702.html?wid=1433363) in the backyard (shielded against the elements, of course) that works very well. As an added bonus, it also measures humidity and atmospheric pressure. ---

yeah , that’s a good idea, at the moment I pull this from the internet. I am trying to understand how the nefit easy reacts on the outside temperature , because we use the ‘weather dependant’ setting, and now I am just wondering if the nefit reacts on bad data , but that’s difficult to check . ---

Is it possible to make the thermostat step size configurable? This way a user could change how big the changes should be using .1° or .5° steps. This option would really make your app awesome! Thanks for the great work! ---

> [@Marlon](#): > > Is it possible to make the thermostat step size configurable? The device and flow cards use a system UI component that only allows steps of 0.5°C, I don’t think I can change that (even if I could, the subsequent problem would be that you can’t _dynamically_ change such a setting: it has to be set during device pairing, so it won’t work for existing devices and once you have chosen a value, you can’t switch it back without re-pairing the device). ---

Ok, I understand. What is this UI component called? I could submit this as a feature request for Homey V2.0 😉 [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-nefit-easy/105.md?page=2)
