A taken snapshot,

Hi Martijn ,

installed this app again recently.  
I managed to set up a flow that (basic) messages in a group are responded automatically by homey. When someone in the group asks “temperature” homey flow replies with the current outside temperature.  
Strangely the others in the group see the reply , but on my phone “wachten op dit bericht. Dit kan even duren” is shown. On the PC ( whatsapp web) I can see the reply message without any issue.

I already tried creating a new group link and changing it in the flow, but this doesn’t seem to resolve the problem.

Smartphone is a Samsung Galaxy S23 with the latest android and whatsapp app version .

Any suggestions ?

Thanks

Pieter

Is it possible to have / detect group-names/-ids?  
I’ve got several numbers that exists in multiple groups.  
And i really don’t want to add 20+ numbers per group and miss a message because a new person joined and i haven’t added the number.

@JvdMeulen Not unfortunately not possible.  
You might want to check the reply\_code and see if that is the same as the group id. Reply\_code is a tag in the trigger card

Hello i have installed whatsapp yesterday at first it work perfectly but after a few minutes I have received a message from whatsapp telling me that a Linux app is trying to connect.  
So I go to my homey flow and test but I didn’t received the messages this time.

@Jonathan_Churque  
The Homey whatsapp identifies as linux so thats correct.

I dont see the issue in the logs. Please send a new report when the issue occurs

So I’ve a very strange problem. Since last Saturday Homey cannot send message’s anymore. I’ve tried to repair the “device” but that failed.

After this, i tried to send messages in the WA android app as my “Homey” user to myself.  
But those messages never arrive. Vice versa the same problem occurs.

It’s like this problem on [reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/whatsapp/comments/17okiiu/whatsapp_messages_not_sending_not_a_connection/). I removed every message from the WA user, but that didn’t work. The messages that your Homey app send I obviously cannot remove.  
Is there a way to see those unsend message or remove them from the waiting que?

PS. I’ve had this 2 times before, but then it solved it self somehow.

@Jeroen_W that sounds like a blocked WhatsApp somehow.  
Not sure what you mean with the queue?

Seems like it…  
Well not really a queue, but in whatsapp if you send a message and it won’t be send you’ll see a clock 🕛. That my “queue”.
