An Agenda app to link with Icall would be perfect! ---

@ewoudfr i see, you should change the text-size to the smallest in your ios setting in order to get 3 columns on this ipad, after this restart the homey app. ---

@Harwin can you give some thought on these also please? @Peter_Kawa I mean more to have these arrows as an example: ![{6CD7EF50-8050-4CCC-A9FA-53EE65723002}](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/9/39004940570d8bdd527083677946d87cb50957b3.png) ---

I don’t think this should be because of font size, why dont you just give me, the user the chance to set how many columns I want on a dashboard and also how much % of the total with each column shall take. then me as user can adapt it to whatever device I want to use it on? 🙂 btw: also resizing buttons should be somehow possible…? ---

This works! Many thanks. Didn’t restart the app when I tried this myself earlier. ---

Do you know another App that does that by any chance? I see a lot of comments asking for different size and more flexibility. to be honnest I would like the same type of flexibility but I can’t think of a good example ---

Would it be possible to select more speakers in the Speaker widget? I would like to see all my speakers in one widget and control them separatly in stead of 1 widget for 1 speaker. And would it be possible to customise the size of the widget? ---

With the latest (ios) App, the dashboard is correctly sorted ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/f/1fbc5d9adc6b2290c9cc5f379dd4db0c39324939.png) ---

That is possible. Just create one widget per device underneath each other and remove the title for nr 2 and 3 ---

Is it possible to cast the dashboard to a monitor if it has Google chromecast? I know you can cast Homey Ink but what about this new Dashboard? I want to buy this new monitor to use in my hallway for this dashboard only if its possible. ---

Oh no, I want to be able to control it as well, thought I could do that if the monitor is touchscreen? ---

> [@OWA](#): > > thought I could do that if the monitor is touchscreen? In theory you can cast to a Google Hub for instance. Only the dash has to be webbased. But there’s another big downside: when a keyboard is involved, there’s a problem because there isn’t an onscreen version 🤷‍♂️. So when you have to login to the casted dash, it doesn’t work. For example I cannot cast my.homey.app because of that. I can cast homey.ink / [homeydash.com](http://homeydash.com), because it uses a long lasting token, which can be generated on a phone and is part of the casted URL. I can also cast Home Assistant dashboards, because you can enable “[trusted networks](https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/authentication/providers/)”, which omits the login procedure. ---

Ahhh I see, thank you for explaining this to me, I can avoid making a mistake by buying that monitor now, everything is so expensive, I just thought it might be cheaper than buying a tablet. I’ll try and find another work around then. I have this small ipad I use in the meantime but it’s too small for me, cause I need something more visually noticeable, something bigger, my memory trouble is terrible and I need to see the sticky notes on the screen immediately so I don’t forget things, it’s not easy. ---

possibility to really use spotify - like also search for a song or playlist and then play it on a speaker. shouldn’t this be possible without switching to spotify app? ---

> [@OWA](#): > > cast the dashboard to a monitor if it has Google chromecast? afaik there is no way to cast a (Android) App to a Chrome Cast device, and the Homey Dashboard is a Mobile App (Android or iOS) (You probably can Screen mirror but that is something else) So the short answer is just: NO. ---

I think the best would be to be able to open Spotify or Sonos app for this on the dashboard. There is a request for it here > [@\[Request\] Opening apps from tiles](https://community.homey.app/t/request-opening-apps-from-tiles/117963/1): > > It can be very convinient to open an app from a tile in Dashboards. For instance, you might want to browse your music with the Spotify app or add something to you shopping list app. The way I do it now is by using “Dashboard Controller” ([Dashboard Controller App til Homey | Homey](https://homey.app/da-dk/app/nl.xseth.dashboardctrl/Dashboard-Controller/)). This app has a flow card that opens up an app. After 20 seconds of inactivity, I then close the app again in a flow, which then in turn displays the dashboard again.
