:high_voltage: Energy Flow v0.4.0 – Introducing Water Flow & Gas Flow! :droplet::fire:

Hi everyone! :waving_hand:

I’m excited to share a major update to Energy Flow for Homey Pro!

Version 0.4.0 introduces two brand-new dashboard widgets: Water Flow and Gas Flow!

These widgets are designed to give you a clearer, more detailed view of your water and gas consumption, while keeping the existing Energy Flow widget completely intact.

:droplet: Water Flow – Your Water Consumption at a Glance

  • Live water flow in L/min, when supported by your meter.
  • Consumption history for Today, Week, Month and Year.
  • Interactive consumption charts and detailed views.
  • Native Homey Energy history for compatible water meters, including existing historical data.
  • Reported water costs when available.
  • Subtle animated water effects that respond to actual water flow.

Water Flow supports different meter brands through Homey’s standard device and energy reporting system. Where native history isn’t supported, locally observed consumption remains available as a fallback.

:fire: Gas Flow – A Better Overview of Gas Usage

  • Gas consumption in m³.
  • Today, Week, Month and Year statistics.
  • Interactive charts and historical details.
  • Homey Energy cost information when available.
  • Animated flame effects when actual live gas flow is reported.
  • Dedicated gas meter selection.

Both widgets include:

Version 0.4.0 has been built and validated, and is now in test !

I’d especially appreciate feedback on:

  • Widget appearance and scaling on iPhone and iPad.
  • Dashboard height and screen rotation.
  • Compatibility with different water and gas meters.
  • Historical consumption and cost accuracy.
  • Overall readability and usability.

The existing Energy Flow widget remains available alongside the new widgets.

Thanks to everyone who has been testing Energy Flow and sharing feedback. Your suggestions are helping make the app better with every update!

Looking forward to hearing what you think! :raising_hands::high_voltage:
