Hi I just got a Homey Pro (erly 2019) Ver: 7.1.3. I have two humidity sensors (two bathrooms) which must control a fan, how do I make a flow for it?  
Once I have selected one sensor, I cannot select the next one. Is there anyone who can help with that?

Welcome to the Community,  
The topic you posted it in is not for this kind of questions so I moved it to a new Topic.

Can you explain what you want to achieve and when?

Hi Jesper,

As Tjerk asks, it depends on what you want to achieve,

But you could start with a Flow  
When…  
. Humidity-Sensor1 Changes…  
And  
. Some Logic on \<Tag Humidity-Sensor1 \>  
. AND / OR  
. Some Logic on \<Tag Humidity-Sensor2 \>  
Then …  
. Do Something …

And then Dupolicate that Flow for When - Humidity-Sensor2 Changes.  
Pls See [How to use tags in a flow - #8 by Rocodamelshekima](https://community.homey.app/t/how-to-use-tags-in-a-flow/9285/8)

Hi Jesper,

Things can often be achieved in different ways.

So I just wanted to point you to this approach, it might give you new ideas:  
If you’d want to use the mean average humidity values, you can use the \< group \> app and create a group of those 2 sensors.

You can do this by adding a new device, pick the \< group \> app and pick type ‘sensor’; then tick the ‘humidity’ box; then select the two sensors you want.  
The app calculates the mean average of the 2, without the use of a flow.

> The new device (‘2 vochtsensors gemiddeld’ is Dutch for ‘2 hum. sensors average’)

> By viewing the advanced settings, you’ll see it calculates the ‘mean average’ of the grouped sensors (luchtvochtigheid = Dutch for humidity):

> Then, you can trigger the flow with the new device, which represents the two sensors:

MANY THANKS for the quick response. I’ll probably be asking about more things
