@Yann_Liqueur if this errors occurs again, could you PM me a diagnostic report id? We are gathering information about this specific issue. šŸ™‚ ---

@Harwin i got the same problem one ago. But I restarted my homey app. ![IMG_0279](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/b/c/bcecefa8efb5384d29af6eb2780afe358ae3dc5e.png) I will work on that tonight and as soon as I reproduce the bug I would create the diagnostic before restarting ---

Very nice! Thanks for sharing! Some thoughts; - Would be nice to be able to select a language - The weather widget is taking some space with the 6 day forecast. Would be nice to select the number of days, or be able to just toggle between like 6 and 3 days. - It seemed to be that the weather and sun widget are using different data. There is a difference in the sunset time: ![IMG_0030](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/6/66a76d08bc950de65cd483a4ab535e28fe75e1bd.jpeg) ---

Maybe it has been asked before. But why cant you swipe between the dashboards? I can only select them one by name. For me it would be easier to create 5 dashboards with 3 columns than one inmense dashboard with 15 columns. It also saves some loading time. ---

@Harwin It was already asked, bu I also want to vote for a stacked insights chart. Take these energy charts as example: ![grafik](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/c/acca4094f26b330c07a4a3ae0345ae07c72c4495.png) ![grafik](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/1/f126a584f457919876bead958ea7fa7a7c2f4bc4.png) I need 4 charts for solar production, usage, feed-in and grid usage. and all are the same automatic color (based in capability?). And the yAxis is not compareable. This is an example from HA: ![grafik](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/e/ae1efa37145df8530a39510d3280166e300c33a6.png) 4 charts are using one yAxis and battery SoC the second. All energy charts are compareable (same y range). This combination as a cool designed Homey insigts chart would be awsome. And if it would be possible to select colors it would be perfect. ---

I will try to add more languages soon! The differences in sunrise and sunset times occur because the widgets use different methods to retrieve the data. The weather forecast widget uses data from [open-meteo.com](http://open-meteo.com), while the sun widget uses an offline script. This has the advantage that the sun widget doesnā€™t require data from the internet. The meaning of the sunrise and sunset times in the sun widget are as follows: Sunrise: top edge of the sun appears on the horizon. Sunset: Sun disappears below the horizon, evening civil twilight starts. Open-meteo may be using another method to calculate the sunrise and sunset. For now itā€™s not something I really want to mess with, since the differences are kinda small. About your second point: Iā€™ve implemented an option to change the number of displayed days! I will appear in the next update! Thanks for the suggestion. ---

I am using an old Samsung Galaxy S8 in kioskmode for the Dashboard. Unfortunately I am experiencing some lag with refreshing the dashboard after opening it. I think this is because on the background several parameters need to refresh for the whole Homey-app. It would probably a smoother experience if the dashboard was a standalone app (or a webapp). Is a standalone app something that we will see in the futher? (I tried to search in this thread, but couldnā€™t find an answer) ---

You can follow the link in the post below and like the first message to show your interest in Dashboard on a Web App: > [@\[Request\] Web interface](https://community.homey.app/t/request-web-interface/117072): > > Although it has been mentioned by Emile that currently there will be no effort made for a Dashboard management on web I think itā€™s essential to have a complete experience on all devices. I always understood that Advanced Flows on a phone would be ā€œtoo hard to doā€ from a user experience end-point. But forcing me to go to my.homey.app changed my way of thinkingā€¦ Adding devices, changing the ā€œdevices pageā€, managing app and device settings and creating advanced flows is all so much easier on web ā€¦ ---

1st post FAQ (The (Android) app is indeed terribly slow) > [@Emile](#): > > **Will Homey Dashboards be coming to the Homey Web App?** > At this time weā€™d rather spend our time on building new features, than doing the same work again for web. Homey Dashboards is more performant on mobile devices, and we did expect some people to grab an old tablet from a drawer and expect it to work. If we made Homey Dashboards for web first, it simply wouldnā€™t have been as performant as it is now. ---

My question was not just webapp. A standalone app could also be in the same infrastructure as the normal app but without options to change other Homey settings. A dashboard only app. ---

The dashboard is great (once I finally worked out how to add a single item) BUT itā€™s hard to believe a dashboard was created in monochrome (i.e. black and white)! It looks soooo boring and uninteresting. Please please please add color setting in the item editing. ---
