Yes, but that’s sending. So action cards, not trigger cards 😉 ---

@JeeHaa I did check your request, but i dont see a easy way to do that in this app. I think there are plenty powerful apps out there which can do something like this.: (splitting text and create temporary variables etc) - [Flow Utilities App for Homey | Homey](https://homey.app/a/com.flow.utilities) - [Better Logic Library App for Homey | Homey](https://homey.app/a/net.i-dev.betterlogic) - [Custom Logic App for Homey | Homey](https://homey.app/a/nl.lrvdlinden.custom-tokens) ---

I have a very strange question and it is the following: I would like to send a control SMS to WhatsApp asking whether all contacts of all doors are closed. So I send a message to whatsapp: contact information And then I get a list of which door/window contacts are open (or possibly which are closed (or open and closed). Anyone with a little more experience in this and can tell me how to approach it?! Thank you ---

Report with id: 60bdfb58-b442-447f-9214-a81fa5194091 Problem where the “when” card is not triggered on receiving messages. The “then” card works as expected and sends messages. Tried reconnecting/reinstalling and reconnecting Whatsapp and same behavior occurs. ---

@Hannes85 nothing in the report can you make sure to send some message to your whatsapp instance of Homey first before sending a new report? Btw if you are sending messages from yourself to yourself make sure to enable that in the device settings ---

By saying “send some message to your whatsapp instance of homey” I take it just send some whatsapp messages to the number that I connected to my Homey, right? I did that multiple that times but here’s a new report after sending 10+ messages from my number to the number connected to the Homey Whatsapp App; de0d3a29-83cb-4735-9c58-f899849a6106 I am using a different number from the one I have connected to my Homey. Appreciate your fast responses Martijn ---

That’s weird, when I open WhatsApp (business) on my phone the messages are successfully received. Could it be that WhatsApp business does things a bit different? I don’t see what makes this different but worth mentioning ---

Just gave it a try and same result - I see the messages popping up in Whatsapp but Homey does not react to it [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-whatsapp-simple-reliable-private/90749.md?page=29) [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-whatsapp-simple-reliable-private/90749.md?page=31)
