I might have found a bug. Since some weeks I have been trouble making new number variables in my homey pro 2023 working with a 2025 mac mini. But when I looked into some flows on my work pc, a windows 11, then it was no problem making another new number variable. Anyone else experienced this?

Is that both on the web app and on the mobile app? Or are you able to create a new numeric variable in one but not the other?

If on the web app: try to refresh the page, so that the latest web app version loads.

If it keeps persisting then you might want to report it to Athom via:

As I wrote, on a mac mini. I tried refreshing, restart etc. It is not the mac. It seems to work just fine on my iPhonne and on my PC. I use Brave as standard web browser and tried another safari. It worked like a charm, so Brave is the issue.

Good that you found the source of your issue. The reason I was asking through which app you were accessing Homey is that - if I am correct- the newer Macs (with Apple silicon) allow you to install iOS/iPadOS apps on them. So it was not clear to me whether you were using the web app or the mobile app on your Mac mini.
