Didn’t try exp firmware, waiting for stable. Power does sounds OK, thumbs up. But in comparison with b/r and zigbee, my opinion, it’s not even 1/10 the significance of those two… ---

Yeah, sure would like to send feedback this to Athom. Dies anyone know how to? I know how to send feature requests or app requests, but how to feedback on beta firmware / app? ---

Is that really the way the would like yo receive feedback on beta firmware and apps? You’d say there are better ways to channel this… Btw; have uninstalled the separate battery monitor app. Thx! ---

Better then this forum yes, you’ll get no response here vs A response 😉 You can try slack, but they also don’t read there everything and gets buried pretty quickly. ---

@Eternity Have you installed the Non-Beta-Version? The Non-Beta-Vesion has o be installed before you see the Option to become a Beta-Tester. I couldn’t speak Dutch but here are the Google-Informations to become a Beta-Tester in Dutch: [https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/7003180?hl=nl](https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/7003180?hl=nl) and in English: [https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/7003180?hl=en](https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/7003180?hl=en) Hope this helps. ---

“These updates might be unstable, and after enabling you cannot revert without doing a factory reset.” Too late for u but maybe for future reference. ---

And what are the risks of exp updates enabled? Crashed homey’s? Does anyone had this happin to him already? Or had to do a factory reset? And there are no back ups or something? ---
