Take care before you update and buy the dashboard. You are forced into three columns, which also impact your home page. Very very strange that you can’t have a page wide widget.

Or maybe a more balanced view would be to read the [published information](https://homey.app/en-us/news/introducing-homey-dashboards/) which clearly describes the column based approach and then, if that fits your needs, do buy it.

I updated my Homey Pro (Early2019) to the latest firmware 12.2.0, updated the app 9.0.0.1623 ( via the playstore ) bought the dashboard, rebooted everything, but now when I go to the dashboard it keeps saying, buy now, ( wich I already did) but when I click it again it says: Error, you already purchased this item… any suggestions ? already reinstalled the app … and lost 25 euros :S

You can always request for a one column only layout option.  
I assume the dashboard team keeps working on it, to improve and add stuff.

Don’t dramaqueen 😆  
You’ll get your dashboard.

But I really am concerned Athom doesn’t seem to test anything before publishing.
