[APP][Pro] WhatsApp - Simple. Reliable. Private

Yes, the problem is solved.

Reconnecting with WhatsApp solved the problem.
However, this did not work at first, it resulted in a timeout.
Afterwards, the app itself indicated in the settings that the device had to be re-registered.

Thank you for the quick response!

@Vastin nice that it’s fixed! :smiley: . For the future please send 1 report. As I already get lots of reports per day. It’s just flooding my mailbox :wink:

Hey Martijn,

Do you know why WhatsApp does not receive anything in homey? If I create a flow to send a message it does so, but reading text from received messages does not work.

I would like to set it up if I receive a message from the emergency service with the word “emergency” in it from a certain number and then it will start a flow.

Thank you in advance.

Hi @Thijs_van_Puffelen
Welcome.
You’re currently in a English topic. Please translate your post so our non-dutch forum members can read along.

I can’t say why that doesn’t work. Do you use your own number to send that message or another? You don’t get notificatons from yourself

Yes, i use my own number.

I have pictures of the flows if you want to see.

@Thijs_van_Puffelen you don’t get notifications from your own number

Just noticed this message:

Did somebody already think of a flow to detect this? So I can send a push to take action?

@FKey I can make a flow card for it? :stuck_out_tongue:

That would be great.
Makes it a more reliable notification

I am using it in my “man down” flow.
To alert my sister (so she does not need to install the homey app, just to ger a noticiarion)

Thanks for your replies, after doing some electrical work in my house and switching the fuse so the homey was powered again, everything worked flaweless. Even the P2000 app that never worked, started to work.

Absolutely love the App - works great! The only issue that I have is that WhatsApp seems to disconnect from the Ubuntu device after a period of time. I only find out after realizing that I’m no longer getting messages. Is there a way to keep the connection ‘live’ longer. Again - great app, thanks!

@PaulArts the Ubuntu device is in this case your homey
But no there’s not actually it should keep alive.

I’ll make a flowcard which can notify you if it’s down [APP][Pro] WhatsApp - Simple. Reliable. Private - #1236 by FKey

Excellent - thanks Martijn

I had the same problem with sending messages from OpenAI with Whatsapp. The Whatsapp app crashed and when trying to pair again i get a timout. Don’t know what to do to get Whatsapp stable again.

@kooskortekaas maybe the answer is the same as the message you reply to :wink:

Yes i tried a several times but reconnecting the app won’t work and gives the timeout.

@kooskortekaas strange can you send a diagnostic report

Eventually I was able to solve it by manually removing the device and having to add it again and repairing the flows in question.

@kooskortekaas glad that works
I will check why the repair process doesn’t work as it should

Same here. It says ‘New pairing code is needed’. But when I try to repair, it gives a timeout error.
