Hi @martijnpoppen - this looks nice and i just bought a NIU Mqi+ Sport 🙂 But I have trouble using this app, what I enter on settings do not get saved. Also note that NIU can have phone as account detail and not always an email - I f.ex only registered with phone number. (also you write that you should enter +46 f.ex. the NUI API use only 46 - but maybe that is handled in your code? (And another suggestion is to use the device/driver login flow so user can enter credentials there instead of doing it on settings, better flow/ux for the user.) I am looking forward to be able to test/use this app - keep up the good work (I was just going to write one myself 🙂 ) /Jonathan ---

Now I got it to connect, it saves and returns a token… 🙂 FYI… I remove the + sign and leading 0 of my phonenumber… ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/3/733a0ffe7b36ac17cbc5eb59260c5f072b6760bb.png) But still cannot list devices, it just runs for a while and then say “check settings”… ---

Hey @Jonathan_Cohen , I’ll have a look at that. I use it without a + because the code handles it. I attached the link to the country codes. I understand you read the api so that why you put in the + 😛 For account I only tested with Email. Didn’t know it was possible with a phone number. I don’t own the Niu myself. (borrowed the account from Rens). Did you try the M series? ---

Yes @martijnpoppen i tried to connect the m-series. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/7/07c2cff845912006ee340ac1ee9727989bb3e427.png) ---

@Jonathan_Cohen I updated the app. Can you retry? **version 1.0.11** I added a pairing filter for the devices. But probably the M series doesn’t start with an M in the ID ---

@Jonathan_Cohen Would you mind sharing your Vehicle SN? Then I can try to find a pattern in the SN’s and put back the filtering in the pairing screen. You can send an diagnostic report if you want Also confirmed that the country\_code works without an +. Saw this on the Home assistant forum. About the phone number maybe it should be with an double 00? Not sure. Cannot find it in the API. > [@Jonathan\_Cohen](#): > > (And another suggestion is to use the device/driver login flow so user can enter credentials there instead of doing it on settings, better flow/ux for the user.) Do you have an example for this? I see a lot of apps using the `Configure App `settings. So curious how that would work 🙂 ---

I can confirm that i can connect to my NUI now, Thanks (it never showed up in UI, just spinning icon - but closed and there it was). About account/phone etc, I had a look at this and also mocked around with it: [niu-cloud-connector/API.md at master · BlueAndi/niu-cloud-connector · GitHub](https://github.com/BlueAndi/niu-cloud-connector/blob/master/doc/API.md) They state: Telephone country count without leading zeros or + sign, e.g. 49 instead of 0049 or +49 ( and that worked for me). Some things I can see now 1. The lock/unlock does not work for me → “(Un)Locking not possible” 2. Battery show 0% I can later this evening check a bit both in the API and your code and see if I find things. About login flow: [Custom Views - Homey Apps SDK v3 Documentation](https://apps-sdk-v3.developer.athom.com/tutorial-Drivers-Pairing-Custom%20Views.html) There you could gather the information needed to continue ti list vehichles, and save to settings (for next veichle) Anyway - thanks for great work and I will use/test this App 🙂 ---

Hi Jonathan, I think lock/unlock is not something you can do remote. It just shows if the contact is on or off ---

@Jonathan_Cohen Yes Rens is right. The API is read-only. But I really wanted to use the lock capability for the visuals 😛 I use the same cloud-connector as you showed. `Telephone country count without leading zeros or + sign, e.g. 49 instead of 0049 or +49.` I thought it was `WITH` + or 00 😑 So that’s correct will change it in the settings page. Strange that the battery is not working. Can you share a diagnostic report? > [@Jonathan\_Cohen](#): > > About login flow: [Custom Views - Homey Apps SDK v3 Documentation](https://apps-sdk-v3.developer.athom.com/tutorial-Drivers-Pairing-Custom%20Views.html) > There you could gather the information needed to continue ti list vehichles, and save to settings (for next veichle) Yeah I know that’s possible. But never saw anybody using that. Also I think the effort is too much for the result. Most apps use the `Configure app`. So most Homey users know where to find these settings. 😉 ---

@martijnpoppen - Now battery is working, I saw it was not reporting in NIU’s own app either. Started up the scooter and now it is visible on both apps. I have been in contact about this with NIU and I need an update to my ECU, it does not charge and do not hold battery after turning of my scooter - so your app is working fine! Still a bit confusing with the lock/unlock also in the flow, but as UX/visibility on the app icon it is good to see the state 🙂 ---

@Jonathan_Cohen Really nice to hear! Thanks Yeah the lock/unlock is indeed confusing. But as far as I know you cannot remove flows from standard capabilities. 😕 [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-niu/46185.md?page=2)
