Not sure what happened but when I wasn`t getting messages i had a look at the app, it said it wasn’t installed, so I tried re-installing from the app community apps, no dice, so I added a new device searched for whatsapp and its stuck, I cant send a report from the app as it isn’t there in homey, anyway long story short it doesnt install at least for me - Device Homey Pro ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/d/1dce881aeded75110b2c8acbbfb7bce697d7ed77.png) ---

It’s so hard to explain in English. Anyway, we’ll try with Google Translate. I’ve created flows that say the following (this one works perfectly): Send me a message as soon as the back door opens (I get a very polite WhatsApp message). Or send me hourly price information, which is also very nice and polite. But suppose my partner asks a question via WhatsApp. The question is: Lights on? I used to always get a prompt WhatsApp message back with a message about which lights are on. I no longer receive this information. I do this from my private WhatsApp (iPhone) and send it to my other WhatsApp number (this is the WhatsApp number for the WhatsApp Homey app). I can send whatever I want, but I don’t get a message back. He used to do this. I can’t explain it any better. ---

@EdNL then the issue seems not in this app but in the way the flow is setup ---

Hi Martijn, I’ve fixed the issue by deleting and re-adding the device. Fortunately, there is your script for replacing the device ID in the flows’ cards. If I reencounter the issue, I will come back to you. Thanks, Luca ---

@Yvo my guess is is that there’s still some data leftover causing the memory to peak. Made a test version which cleans that, not sure if it’s the fix, but worth a shot. Can you install the test version? (click link above and press green button to install) ---

Hi Martin yes I have restarted homey, the app wont install at all from here, its a fairly new device, I have no idea why the app disappeared in the first place, very strange. I just tested another app and it downloaded fine .. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/2/6292826d3cb7ab8b6d73bfa825c5537aa78fd9c7.png) [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-whatsapp-simple-reliable-private/90749.md?page=87) [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-whatsapp-simple-reliable-private/90749.md?page=89)
