Ok just tested with the new version and it seems that the Aqara window/door sensors now color orange when active, so I don’t know if this is also added in the new update? but yesterday this was not working for me, but happy that it works now! thanks @DaneedeKruyff

Ok created a short manual for installing on a Raspberry Pi maybe this helps?

Great development! I installed the version by @DaneedeKruyff on my NAS.  
Working nicely on my Mac, using Chrome:

 ![55](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/3/3cf51e25ba8b476487e20a2e0b17352c99334923.jpeg)

What I do notice is that on my Android phone, using Chrome, I get more 'favorite devices"…thermostats. Why do these not show up on my Mac?

@Eternity Check the url on your Mac or press CMD-R because that screenshot doesn’t look like my version.

@Andre_Prins tiles for devices with alarm\_generic, alarm\_contact, alarm\_motion and alarm\_vibration will be orange when such an alarm is active and go back to white when the alarm\_xxxx clears.

@Danny_Mertens How would you see on the Mi FLora Sensor a plant needs water? I don’t have such devices so I can’t see what capabilities they have and use.

While testing with @Rocodamelshekima we found out caching can be an issue when using Homey.ink. If you run it with **Serve** its no problem because I’ve included a config file to prevent this, if you run it on a different webserver, please make sure you prevent caching!

Hi @DaneedeKruyff,

Here some screens from the app and Homey app, hope this helps?

[Here is the Dutch version](https://github.com/Rocodamelshe/homey.ink.nl). **Mind you!** I took the latest files from @DaneedeKruyff and translated the date and welcome message to Dutch. The second u update the files from Danee again it will be in English again! Gonna deliberate with Danee to see what’s the best option for a Dutch version.  
@Maurits @Sjalabert ^^

iPhone adjustments  
(You’ll loose @Rocodamelshekima’s translations to Dutch unfortunately 😉 )

Edit: Actually, its only an additional css file, iphone.css so no translations will be lost if you just copy that file. Also, use `theme=iphone` in the url.

Untill we find a proper solution i will try to keep the files up to date as much as i can.

Well, that’s just a matter of size. My XsMax is showing the translations.😉

Thanks. I only noticed it’s changing to orange when the dashboard was active and I opened the door. When the door is open and I start the dashboard it will not change to orange. Also when it’s orange and I do a refresh of the dasboard it turns back to white. That’s also why I didn’t notice the colour the first time.

Strange indeed, because the URL is in the cloud and I use that url on both my Mac and my Android phone. It looks like this: [http://192.168.1.21/homey-ink/app/index.html?token=XXXXX&theme=web](http://192.168.1.21/homey-ink/app/index.html?token=XXXXX&theme=web)

To make sure I used the correct URL, I opened the page on my phone (showing the thermostats), copied the URL and emailed it to my Mac. Clicking on that URL opens the Homey-ink page, but no thermostats!

**FIXED!**  
I manually cleared the cache, it is working now!
