Homey seems to be offline

“Homey offline” is a frequently appearing new post / topic, Abe.
I also can’t imagine Support not receiving many requests about it.

I was not referring to the “Homey was offline” notification system, this one

The system and it’s malfunctioning as investigated and explained by Robert

this seems to be a related, but separate bug imho;

I was referring to:

The dreadful popups in de mobile & web app:

  • “Homey seems to be offline”
  • “Homey is unreachable”

but, in most cases Homey is online and everything works as should! Only the apps seem to have lost track of Homey (= a bug).
Often tapping “Retry” a few, or many, times makes it find Homey again.

The reproducable bug when Homey temporary dissappears from the network: “misbehaving” apps using over 80MB RAM (Pro 2019), or over 160? MB (pro 2026).
I’m aware of the Pro 23/26 RAM monitoring tools, which kills such apps, but it’s not bullet proof yet.

Also on my LAN my 3 Homeys are the only devices which can have unreliable (W)LAN connection.
I’ve around 80 network devices with their IP binded to MAC.
