I am having trouble understanding how to build flows, nothing works like one thinks it would so i think i am missing something here. Can one find a basic introduction somewhere to start to learn how to build a flow properly? Because now it’s very very time consuming without any desired result. ---

Hey Marcel, It can be a little hard to find, but check out the link below, it runs through the basics [https://www.athom.com/en/homey/flow/](https://www.athom.com/en/homey/flow/) Or if you prefer, there is also a youtube video (a little out dated but still relevant). Once your past that there is also information on tags : [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUqOwjIPhEc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUqOwjIPhEc) ---

I would also recommend searching Google for ‘Homey flows’ as that returns links to lots of examples and tutorials.
