I don’t know what you have in common. But looks like the bug is related to something else. ---

Last week my Flora Sensor data was not updated either, yesterday I needed to restart my Homey because of other reasons and now the information is updated again like normal 🙂 ![IMG_3753](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/b/db36b4b6fa4736295071122b382698205c3a7b2b.jpeg) ---

Well that sounds like the same thing that happened to me. I restarted by accident and it works again. All values are updated except the moisture… And looking at your screenshot, yours neither! ---

I have just checked again and see that the values are updated with different intervals. These intervals work for me so that’s not an issue for me. The fact that they are updated is most important. [image|291x500](https://community.homey.app/uploads/short-url/p62FoCOCecDP5IztLEQUnZmqXIe.jpeg) ---

They update all at the same moment. Homey show only the time if the value is changed. In your case only the lux is changed in the last update interval. I do not understand that logic either. ---

And again a nice review: “Slecht app verbinding valt elke dag weg, erg jammer, tijd voor een nieuwe en werkende update”. ☹ ---

Yes, lovely… always nice if people do some research… Unfortunately this is the experience of this certain person, and although you cannot help it, it still is the case. Don’t know if you can put a huge disclaimer somewhere stating there is an ongoing issue with BLE? ---

I understand that you dislike the review, but as Martijn mentioned; having those things for 16 euros a piece (I have multiple, about 10), it’s pretty expensive. Also my window shutters use the value of the sensor in the window flower pot, it just sucks (sorry) that it shuts down. We do not say it’s your fault, but I can understand the frustration 🙂 ---

Its more that the rating system is used for filling issues. There is github for. Its frustrate that athom doesn’t care about it. ---

Yep that’s why I brought it also on SLACK to see what will happen (just by any chance that someone will pick it up). You mentioned GitHub and we commented on it…let’s wait here little bit so that hopefully it will catch someones attention. ---

Athom should make a difference between latest update and latest value change. ---

I’m still experimenting with my setup. I see that the app should be ok. Where can I give a (good) review for the app? I still love it. Even though it’s not working for me at the moment. Might it be possible that it is a range problem? I had no issues until Homey FW update in April. In the next days I will move Homey even closer to the sensors. At the moment I get 1 to 2 update cycles per sensor after full Homey reboot. Then they fail. Let’s see if moving Homey to another location changes anything… ---

[Apps.athom.com](http://Apps.athom.com), search for the app and you’ll see. And what happens if you restart the app, doesn’t it force the update then? ---

Thx! That was obvious. 🙂 Rated the app because it is great - except the BLE error since Homey FW update. App restart does not force any sensor update. Only way to get the sensors updated (one / max. two times with my setup) is to restart Homey… ---

Today something strange happened - my Homey got stuck and I had to reboot (via app) - suddenly all the sensors were working after reboot without me changing anything - location,/position, settings, anything. Unfortunately it was working for hour or two but so far the longest time … If @Koktail will see anything - 883c9629-7599-4901-8990-f9e0914e67c7 Previously one of the sensor did not sync for last 10 days, despite of rebooting each day. ---

And again the “BLETimeout at Remote IPC Process”. After a reboot it can work for some time. After a while the timeout kicks in. ---

Yeah, it proved that unless power cycle Homey, after a while the values stop updating. Anyway mate, your app is (was) awesome, not your fault, I personally give you all the kudos for all the great effort and no surprise if arogant Athom would move BLE to experimental. It would be a surprise if they fix it, thought.
