One of the native When cards is translated wrong when you set the language to Dutch. The card: “ **Any** device’s [Alarm Type] turned on” is translated to: “[Alarm Type] van **elk** apparaat is ingeschakeld”. This wrongly translated Dutch sentence would translate back to English as: “ **Every** device’s [Alarm Type] turned on”. This is of course wrong as the true behavior of the card is that it is triggered when any of the device’s alarm is turned on. The proper translation of this card would be: “[Alarm Type] van **een** apparaat is ingeschakeld”

I don’t think I agree with you, because “any” can be used in “any alarm” and “any device”, like:  
Any alarm from any device in the zone  
Apparently automatic translations are not so good.  
Elk willekeurig alarm van welk apparaat dan ook in de zone.

Even if you could also interpret it that way, the translation is at least ambiguous. It caused unnecessary confusion amongst multiple users. Ambiguity should be avoided. Especially when your dealing with smoke alarms. I want to be 100% sure that my flow will be triggered when an alarm is triggered of **any device** , and not only when an alarm has been triggered on **all devices**.

Yeah, “Elk” should be replaced with “Een”, or “Een willekeurig” even.

Strange. I can only find this card.

Interesting. This card is available in a Standard Flow on Homey Pro 2023:

There is a difference making standard flows in the Homey app and [https://my.homey.app](https://my.homey.app)

Yes, I am aware of that. However I was responding to @Wim_Post as he noted that the discussed flow card is not available in his Standard Flow screen, while it is available in mine.

With difference I mean there are different cards for the normal flow in the app and web app. At least for me.

Yes, you are correct, though that was not the point I was trying to make.

The point was that Wim\_Post and I were both referring to Standard Flows. You would expect that we have the same cards available in Standard Flows. In my case the respective card _is_ available in Standard Flows, while Wim\_Post indicated it is not in his Standard Flows screen. So we were both comparing available cards in the Standard Flows screen, regardless of which cards are available in Advanced Flows.

I think I am lost myself 😉. I need to take a closer look.  
It looks like both cards do the same. It concerns all the devices in a zone, and you can select the type of alarm, even all alarms.
