New to Homey

Hi there,

I am new to homey pro, as of today.

Coming from 10 yes other SmartHome, last 8 on Magenta SmartHome, what was no bad choice. They made however some strange moves. :upside_down_face:

I will transfer most devices over the next days.

Only that comes realy without an acceptable path seems to be Schellenberg windows blinds - if there is any suggestion or hope.

Besides that, have done first devices, apps, flows - no problem so far.

Will end up with Alexa, Philips Hue, Homematic CCU, Sonos nd some more integration.

More concret question:

I am used to rules (flow) with many sensors and thus many OR conditions.

Seems, Homey limits to 3 OR conditions.
I must be missing something here. :upside_down_face:

I have bunch of rules with 10+ OR.

How to manage this?

Is it maybe a advanced flow with a „Any“ connector?

Thanks.

Cheers

Ralf

You can eighter serialize your logic cards or use the ALL and ANY card in Advanced Flows.

Yes, in an advance flow you can collect all the condition by placing them in parallel and connect with an ANY - connector.
Unlimited amount of conditions can be collected this way.

On standard flows it’s indeed limited to 3 "OR"s.
You can workaround this limitation by inverting both: use AND cards, invert the condition, and use the “ELSE” part of the “THEN” section.

Advanced flow is indeed a better or easier choice for your usecase.

Example standard flow, sends a notification when today is a special day:

Thanks.

The advanced flow - while sadly not in the app´s - seems to do it quite well.
