@Houtwoud

Known issue

Still waiting for the SDK update
Already made loads of fixes on my side but really need that update.

Until then, remove your device and add it again

Hi Martijn tried this.

Also Reconnected Whatsapp again to see if that helps.
Homey self hosted server

  1. Send message via homey to another number → Works !:heart_eyes:
  2. flow → a new message has been Received → Homey mobile → Send message Whatsapp received to (ME) → No message :expressionless_face:

or is this testing flawed ?

Thanks in advance :grinning_face:

@Rob_Reinderink enable that you want to receive notifications from yourself in the device settings. There’s a option for that

Hi Martijn,

  1. I added my private number. And send messages from my business number.
  2. That setting was already to yes.

Have to make dinner now, but will remove app and reinstall and then try again.

Hi Martijn,

When do you espect the new sdk?

The last few months I have that i need to fix Whatsapp a few times. Sometimes after a few days I think, I am missing something.

Because of this, I am now throwing Whatsapp away and I am going to Telegram, as they are working through Api and don’t have this issue with connecting again your telephone number. Need to create a new token etc…

I have used it more then a year without any issues, but this is just crap and don’t help you either.

@smv I hoped december, but it’s still not there. There’s not much I can do unfortunately, I tried fixing performance in october but that didn’t work out. I have not enought knowledge of the inner workings of the whatsapp sdk. It’s quite a big project and it’s really active so I do expect a update somewhere in the coming month. → GitHub - WhiskeySockets/Baileys: Socket-based TS/JavaScript API for WhatsApp Web

Reinstall doesn’t work at all.

Tried to reinstall the app, reinstall the device restart hoomey and then do tge same. Nothing worked.

It seems that the app doesn’t work when you’ve been kicked out of it. The app will crash at connecting.

@Marcel_Brauers can you try via Homey Webapp?
Which Homey?

2033

I also have problems with this app. I have a device that needs repairing, repairing crashes my Homey Pro 2023 needing a restart.

2034

@elsinga yes known issue, still waiting for a SDK update. Nothing i can do

2035

I did a reinstall of the app and added a device again. Now I needed to enter a code, no issues. Devices was created just fine and works like a charm. Ofcourse did need to recreate all flow cards using the device, lukcily I do not have a whole lot of them.

@elsinga next time (hope there wont be) you can use: [HOW-TO][Pro][Cloud] - Tool to FIX (advanced) flows after removing and re-adding devices

Do I need to update my chat or is this group chat functionality currently limited?

2038

@Chillout this is a whatsapp update issue i guess. I’m still waiting for the SDK to update which should resolve these things.

What might help is opening the whatsapp app on your phone and a additional whatsapp web connection

2039

Ah no worries. Then my housemembers are lucky (for now) that I’ll be the only one getting the notifications for the washing machine :smiling_face_with_sunglasses: Thanks for the great work you’re doing!

2040

So maybe this will help? Still beta so i will wait.
