1. _With_ displaying the nr. of open contacts: This can be achieved with an [Advanced Virtual Device](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-advanced-virtual-device-device-capabilities-app-with-unique-text-status-indicator/68198) of the magnificent Device Capabilities app. You can create a “master” contact which shows if any door/window is open or none. There must be a way to have the status indicator display _the number_ of open contacts, but probably there’s a flow needed for that, not sure. 1. _Without_ displaying the nr. of open contacts: You can create a \< group \> app group contact sensor. Add all of your contact sensors to that group, and set it’s behaviour to “ON when ANY on” & “OFF when ALL off” This way you have a “master” contact sensor, which shows the status of your door & windows: -all closed: no alarm -any open: alarm Put the “group” contact sensor on top of your favorite devices and done. No flows needed --- _[View the full topic](https://community.homey.app/t/at-all-time-show-open-door-window-sensors/105225)._
