Regarding your first point. We should make a seperat request for a widget for the Homey Sonos app that enables the selection of speakers and speaker pairs. This is indeed a very important feature for a dashboard in any Sonos home 🙂

You can make named speaker pair in the Sonos app and these should be accessible from Homey.

First of all, I love this new feature guys! Amazing work from the Homey team so far 🕶 I ordered a cheap Samsung tablet and designed and printed a wall mount and it looks amazing:

I do have a feature request; for the device section it’s currently possible to pick between favorites, zone and selection. It would be great to have a “by type” option so I can simple display all devices that identify as a lamp.

Keep up the great work! 🤩

I did it more easy:

Look very nice and you can still take it of if its really neccesary. Just place 6 of those on the back of the tablet.

Will it be possible to open a dashboard as default on a phone for example?  
Instead of having to go through menu\>dashboard\>select the dashboard?

Would be insanely cool!

@Harwin Dashboard is crashing again after about 5 minutes of running it. It’s different from the last crash, then the dashboard wouldn’t even open.

A question to Homey developers: Could you guys publish the Homey app on the Amazon app store? I have an Echo Show 15 and would like to use Dashboards on it.

Hi! I am now on my third Homey, and it just keeps getting better! I really like the new dashboard! I don’t know if it has been proposed before, but it would be great to able to open a dashboard from a device, or from another dashboard. Similar to what can be done using Sharptools, see example below.

 ![Dashboard1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/f/9f52b657002293131d0d6d3c8fe419f18a721861.jpeg)

Keep up the great work! Thanks!

The amount of widgets in home are increased from 15 to 20 widgets. 👏

Thanks. This was a good update and what would make it even better would be if when you clicked through you only saw what was active, such as the media players. You have no interest in seeing something that is not active, at least not that way

I always wonder how one would start a media player, when it’s hidden.  
Hiding is perfect for, like, graphs which show values within a safe range. Only show them when the value is too high or low.
