Hi,

According to my router Homey has used 68.82 GB (↓44.54 GB, ↑24.28 GB) the past week. Most of it seems internal LAN traffic.  
When I further investigate a lot of data is going to my Sonos speakers, even though I am not playing music through Homey?  
Why is there so much data usage?

Grts,  
Dave

I made the same find the other day, what’s going on is that the Sonos data is updated in Homey no matter where from you start the music. Have a look at the tags in Homey for your speaker(s) while playing something from say Spotify.

I didn’t even play music on my Sonos last week … So it’s very strange …
