I have a second camera widget added, from KMNI.  
Both widgets crashed last night, but there was also a Homey update and an update from my router. No a real good situation to compare.  
I restarted the dashboard this morning, both camera widgets are alive (PbtH and KNMI).  
Keep you posted.

@gerard_athom and @Gruijter ,  
Only the PbtH-camera widget has crashed in dashboards on my 3 tablets, the KNMI-widget stayed alive. I tend to conclude that it is the PbtH picture which is the root cause.

Can it be the number of calls per hour to refresh it?
