You don’t have to, but several users here reported a “worth the pain and effort”.  
Zigbee was rewritten in fw v5.0.0, but only gets activated by a zigbee reset.

Yes, all zigbee devices get lost, you’ll have to pair all zigbee devices again and repair all related flows.

Hint: if you install [Flow Checker](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-flow-checker/50986) prior to the reset, you’ll get informed about all the flows that “break” after the reset.

If you use Flow Checker app here ([Homey Developer Tools](https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/app-settings)) on a laptop,

you can open the listed flows at once in the web app, [https://my.homey.app](https://my.homey.app).  
And, if you use the web app, you can quite easy replace the zigbee device flow cards.
