I use an iPad you can lock / unlock it with an ESP32 emulating a blutooth keyboard. (controlled by homey using HomeyDuino). So you can unlock it if Homey detects movement from a motion detector or something.

> I’ve had several request how I unlock and lock my iPad dashboard remotely. I used an old Pad2 that needed an new connector, so when I opened the iPad, I directly soldered a wire to the smart cover magnetic hall sensor to unlock. But opening an iPad is a real pain, and there are better wireless non-intrusive solutions. One solution is to emulate an Bluetooth keyboard and send lock and unlock key shortcuts to it. I’ve written an firmware for a cheap ESP32 module, no need for solde…

Thanks!

I got it working on an Asus zenpad with fully kiosk.

But after a few days realized that homey dash was better on my desktop for a better overview and set kiosk to look at my netatmo weather overview instead as the family more often wanted a better overview of the weather and forecast. Ordered some magnets and will place it on the fridge.

hello dashboard users,

I’m new in the world of homey and also dashboard ofcourse.  
i have tried a couple of times te get homey dash on mine very very old iPad. this doesn’t work out. I can’t get chrome on my iPad, App Store says its not compatibel with this iPad 😢

 ![IMG_3670](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/7/071b51c45c798d54576ea0840387b48883b7eb79.jpeg)

i have tried to send the link I made on mij Mac, but that doesn’t work either.

does anyone here know how I get this working?

different options are also welcome, I see many different tablets, e-readers or google hub passing by and I don’t know what’s best for me. Perhaps someone here can tell me what the best solution is for my situation?

You are using an ipad 2?, that works on [https://homeydash.com](https://homeydash.com) but i think the cornellise version is not made compatible with the old ios 9 ipads, like the normal homeydash version.

I am using a Nest Hub for the Dashboard website. Unfortunately the screensaver overlays the website after some minutes.  
I did some searching here, but still have no clue how to prevent this from happening and keep the Dashboard alive.

hello, i have installed homey dash local on the homey and i use two nest hubs with cast and motion detectors for display. actually everything works quite well and belongs. but every few days it means that one of the hubs forgets its settings. For example. the arrangement or change of symbols. or also that I have currently set temperature displays at … has an idea how I can do that?

The app is outdated. Please check on the first post in this thread. It should actually provide the details you are looking for. @Bogdan_Iordanescu

Hi! I am missing the visual notification feature!  
We should be able to send a visual notification to the dashboard, to display it, in big, during few seconds.

From any flow in Homey, we should notify the tablet to display useful informations.

Any chance to get it ? Thanks!  
I tried my chance with the original ink version: [Homey.ink, an e-ink Homey dashboard](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-ink-an-e-ink-homey-dashboard/12367/59)

The current version of the Chromecast app on Homey does not find any Chromecast / Google Nest Hub at all… anyone else having this issue? This prevents me to cast anything to the Google Nest Hub.

Are they on the same network ( ip brodcast domain)  
Is the WiFi network protected and are clients allowed to talk to each other?

Thanks M\_a\_r\_c\_o, yes that was the problem, I had my Homey still connected to another SSID on the same network. Now I managed to install the Chromecast and the Google Nest Hub and casted the URL to my Google Nest Hub.

One note, is it normal that if you have buttons (like a camera / doorlock / airco) that those won’t work as the Homey app? Normally you hold the button a bit longer for access to camera view / locking door / changing temperature. This is not possible with [Homeydash.com](http://Homeydash.com)? (or have I missed something ;-))
