I invited guests to my homey. Surprise, surprise, contrary to what is explained on screen, guests can edit, delete flows, change variables… every I can do they can…  
This is a bug, right? Any plans to change the way that works or fix it? Thanks

[[Tip] Problems with Homey?](https://community.homey.app/t/tip-problems-with-homey/35744)

Wat version / model Homey?  
Firmware?  
Where did you try ? Mobile App or WebApp?

What was the Role of user you invited?  
[# Adding, managing & removing user accounts on Homey](https://support.homey.app/hc/en-us/articles/360012615814-Adding-managing-removing-user-accounts-on-Homey#:~:text=There%20are%20four%20roles%20a,Homey%20at%20the%20same%20time)

Was it a Guest or Manager or Resident?

Hi,  
Thanks for your message.  
I invited a “Guest” as a Guest from the mobile app, and I am the Owner.  
I checked the rights from the linked page prior to inviting the guest. For the flows, the guest role is “view and manage” and not “view and start”.  
It’s a Homey Pro early 2023 v10.2.0 with App v7.6.1.1408.

Sorry but I don’t see that…  
And also tested it in Webapp / Mobile App, it is what I expect.

ok, my Homey Pro (Early 2023) is already on Version 10.3.0-rc.4  
and my Mobile App is v8.0 beta on Android for the Owner and Android v7.5.3 for the Guest…  
Where do you see that Guests can Manage? or Edit / Delete Flows or Change Variables??

(Can’t imagine that it was only wrong in that version you have )

Good morning,  
Sorry about the confusion, I meant : the role should give « view and start » rights and what I see for flows is « view and manage ».  
I created the user as shown on the screen copies. User accepted the invite and is listed as a guest as shown here :

 ![IMG_0110](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/d/7d2ac1c350aa32d6997bb8e942af4877fbec7678.jpeg)

And yet this user can edit flows and save them :

User can do anything they want to the flows including « save » but saving does not actually save anything. The flows stay untouched.

Correct,

> Guests can edit flows?

so Yes they Can edit but effectively not as they cant Save them…

If you want you can report it to Athom here: [Support | Homey](https://homey.app/support/)  
but I guess they have more important things to fix,  
maybe in next Mobile App update …
