Homey can't see Light Out status

then shows the wrong color in the app (red, while the bulbs are actually shining white)

It’s mentioned before, not sure if it’s an app or Homey related bug:

@Mark520

when I set my bulb to let’s say green shouldn’t the light indicator show green? Instead it shows it as white.

And when I turn the lights off with the switch, Homey doesn’t detect this and still thinks the lights are on.

That’s normal behaviour in case you cut the power with the switch: without power, a smart device can’t send it’s new status.

Smart lights shouldn’t be turned off by cutting the power. Use a detached mode switch, which just sends commands to Homey (or directly to the light if supported).
Use of a Homey flow to turn off the light.
