@John_Uittenbogaart can you try to restart the app and try again via the Homey webapp?

@martijnpoppen Thanks for this app, very useful.  
The only thing is, sometimes messages are not send (or received?). I only send to one phone number. Used in multiple flows, but missed messages are not trackable to a specific flow. All flows are hit and miss.  
Any idea what could cause this behaviour?

I have the exact same issue. Except I send the messages to a group.

</div>

@CoonHouse @Sen-Sai yes saw that as well. Its probably due to the starting of the whatsapp client. Will check it.  
Adding a delay will help for now

It now works with two numbers and I was able to register everything. However, it does not work reliably. Too often, messages do not arrive, either to a group or to a number, and the app has to be restarted.

I have exactly the same problem, only starting with a different number… Created a business Whatsapp with number +314187\*\*\*\*\*. But also get the same error message as @Eelco_Jansen . I have the latest test version installed v1.17.1

No that’s right. It is indeed a regular KPN home number. Created this as an account for Whatsapp.  
But so that is not possible to use?

@Erikje currently not. This app checks for +316 or +3197 numbers. And as far as i know WhatsApp also blocks fixed numbers

@Erikje i can change the check for that. But will take some time. Didnt expect a fixed number to be used for WhatsApp 😛

Hi Martijn,  
Where to put this delay?  
On the whatsapp group card?

THX!
