@Asterix yes still a known issue unfortunately.  
Can you try piaring it as a new device? (remove before that)  
Flow can be fixed wth: [[HOW-TO][Pro][Cloud] - Tool to FIX (advanced) flows after removing and re-adding devices](https://community.homey.app/t/how-to-pro-cloud-tool-to-fix-advanced-flows-after-removing-and-re-adding-devices/65018)

Hi @martijnpoppen, first of all really great App! I tried an advanced flow with the latest official version and the “Message received” card. It didn’t worked. I updated to the Beta release 2.0.1 that fixed it for a few tries but it broke again. I downgraded to the official version again and since then its working fine. Why am I telling this. For me it seems homey is able to read the messages from a specific chat.

But I have an issue to show this messages in the dashboard widget. I deleted and added the device several times but that didn’t help. The dashboard widget is only showing the messages that homey sent, even I have set the two toggles (show messages I sent, show messages others have sent) in the config to yes. Do you have an idea why incoming messages are not shown?

Thanks and regards, Jan

Hi @Jan_Tendahl  
Yes the behaviour between live and test version is known and expected unfortunately. the test/beta version still has some quirks but so does the live version. I really hope there will be stable SDK released soon 🤞

Oh that’s interesting, is it a group app or a specific 1-1 chat?

Hello martijnpoppen

I deleted the existing device and added the new one, so far no crash 😅

If there is a crash again in the coming days, I would get in touch.

Ps: I tried the script, but I’m too stupid for it, but it would certainly be practical…

Is the issue regarding not beiing able to repair and the crash still active / worked on? Or is it unsolveable?

I’ve been testing the Poll card. Seems that 8 questions/options are fixed and must be entered. If I repeat the same question/option more than once then Android phones will only show the entry once and get’s around not showing all 8 questions. However on iPhone it totally rejects the request and never appears. I’ve tried a few ways to get around reducing the number of questions without it breaking but not luck. Any suggestions on a workaround or can you look at a fix?

Hello, for a few days now I haven’t been able to pair with the WhatsApp app on both my Homey devices (2019 and 2023). I tried uninstalling the app from both Homey and my phone, but it still says the code is invalid. Can you help me?

@Gilberto_Pertile there are still issues with the current version of the app. I’m still waiting for a update from the Whatsapp SDK.  
Until then only thing you can try is the testversion: [[APP][Pro] WhatsApp - Simple. Reliable. Private - #2044 by martijnpoppen](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-whatsapp-simple-reliable-private/90749/2044) (no guarantee that works)

@martijnpoppen - This is one simple example that consistantly failed for me on iOS but fine on Android.  
WhatsApp Poll Card.

Poll Title: Test poll  
Question/Option1: 1  
Question/Option2: 2  
Question/Option3: 3  
Question/Option4: 3  
Question/Option5: 3  
Question/Option6: 3  
Question/Option7: 3  
Question/Option8: 3  
How many options: 1

Android it works and only shows 3 options which you can only select one.  
On iOS they don’t see anything. No error or message at all.

You can’t leave any of the options blank and not found any other way to only show 3 options and can only work with full 8 unique options for iOS.

Thanks for looking into this for me. This card will be very helpful to me if we can make it easy to choose how many options are presented.  
More than happy to do some testing if needed.

Thanks  
Gary
