Would it he possible to use the app as a normal device ?

On this way I would be able to integrate the device in Hdashboards as well.

Alternatively I can make a advanced device capabilities with a set of flows. But native app will work beter.

Fetching holidays is getting an error  
I will look into it and fix it.

Update: Rijksoverheid updated the api url. So I will patch it and push another update of the app soon

Just created an advanced virtual devices , and with a advanced flow I can change the avd to the vacation status.

So this is working for the Hdasboards as well 🙂

Is their any way I would be able to use the count down timer on this way.  
Such as 12 days remining in the current vacation , or 45 days until next vacation ?

Many thanks,

Custom holidays flow cards look great!

**My feedback:**

- Add flow cards for any custom holiday starts or ends instead of select a specific one. Make it easier to create flows.

- Widget text is selectable and zoomable (double-tap on iOS). Consider disabling this.

- The “Only show the next holiday” widget option doesn’t work. It still only shows 1 holiday regardless of the setting.

I love this app, I also would like a flow card for any custom holiday starts or ends.  
Or that a (custom) holiday is active, but not need the specify which one.

</div>

Would it also be possible to not only choose for today, tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow being a holiday, but for example: “next week is a school holiday,” or “in X number of days it is a school holiday”?  
This would make it even more useful for some of my flows.  
Thanks for your effort!

The app is great! Works perfect for automating parts based on schoolholidays.  
It would be great to have a (and) card where its not needed to make any specification for the exact custom vacation.
