Could you try updating to the test version of the app (0.7.33) to see if that helps as it has some fixes for the latest Button+ firmware changes.

If you still get a problem, open the app settings page, select the Diagnostics log option, make sure the Enable full diagnostics log option is checked and then send the configuration from the app. Once the Button+ has restarted, go back to the diagnostics log and hit Send Log.

Thank you for your quick and kind reply. That sounds like a good idea, but I don’t know, how to update to a test version. I did not see any way to download / Install 0.7.23. Also there doesn’t seem to be a way to update within the app or download it from the store. Can you please point me to the location where I can get this version?

To install test versions, just find the app in the store, then either add test to the end of the URL or view the change log and click on the orange test button

Once the page is open you will see a warning that it might not work properly, but ignore that and install the app on your Homey. It will install over the top of your exiting version and keep all the settings, just like a normal update.

That was helpful. Thank you. So what I did (to be safe). Reset button+ uninstalled the app, then reinstalled and added button+ back. Then tried to add one piece of information to the display (a variable).

what works: I can Dim the device via the controls in Homey

but still: display stays in default (Homey says hello). I sent you the log.

Thank you for your support.

Have you assigned the configuration to the Button+ device?

The log shows it is sending the default display configuration that is sent when a configuration hasn’t been assigned.

Ah! I missed that step. The button+ resetting threw me of there. The same with the buttons. Now the device updates and works fine. Thank you for your support and your work.

Morning! Yesterday I received the all new Button+ V2. Some of the buttons work, but the large display keeps displaying “Homey says hi” etc.. I changed it (even don’t see this anywhere in the display settings) but it never gets transferred.

Is this because of the Firmware 3.1.6V2 I’m using and is this Homey app not yet compatible with this device and firmware?

That message is displayed if you haven’t assigned a configuration to the display in the Homey device.

Ah great! Thanks, didn’t know I had to select this one from the device itself. Now I also now how to configure more of the buttons. This is great and better than doing everything solely via the webpage of the device itself :tada:

This message on top of this thread isn’t right anymore. As you helped me through the “display issues” I can confirm it works very well with v3 firmware and even on a V2 of the Button+ hardware :slight_smile:
