Would be nice to have other graph types than only the “spline interpolated line graph.” When for example graphing a heating element of 2kW that goes on/off, it looks terrible. (Middle graph) Also boolean values is not able to chart, but I make a numerical variable that is 0 or 1, this also looks bad in spline interpolated graph. (Top graph) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/4/1/41dccba94344e4b5cbd64b504c99a4711ec1de2f.png) Should have several types like graphana. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/0/608f7cd9d037eed67b0c148fcd0f12460557d781.png) > [@Some ideas for insights](https://community.homey.app/t/some-ideas-for-insights/39322/4): > > Also they have to add the possibility to visualize using different graph types. Spline interpolated line graphs are not good when you for example have a water heater that is on/off with 2kW. Also electric prices change instantly every hours, and shows up terrible… The middle graph down below, is actually a heating element of 2kW that goes on and off instantly, but who would imagine that…? ---

I am not sure, but this might be what you want or it can be build in there: [[APP][Pro] Insight Trends Reloaded [Upcoming] - Apps - Homey Community Forum](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-insight-trends-reloaded-upcoming/71307) Is this what ITS does @spkesDE ? ---

Would prefer to have it in insights. However it seems like a great app for those that need these extra features. Also persistent graphs/dash’s would be helpful when checking stuff frequently.
