**Local webOS TV Controller v1.0.44 — Test version available**

I have received reports of two related problems in Store version 1.0.43:

- After a television has been off for an extended period, Homey may show it as on while subsequent control cards fail with **“not connected”** until the app is restarted.
- Two anonymous crash reports show incomplete application/launch-point and external-input responses causing version 1.0.43 to crash.

Test version 1.0.44 restores connection-retry behaviour closer to Max’s original implementation and checks the affected LG response lists before processing them, preventing those incomplete responses from crashing the entire app.

The Test version is available here:

> **[Local webOS TV Controller | Homey](https://homey.app/en-us/app/com.rompa.webos-plus-g4/Local-webOS-TV-Controller/test/)**
>
> Bring local television control into your everyday Flows

No programming or command line is required. Open the link, select your Homey and install the Test version.

If you already use Local webOS TV Controller, **do not uninstall the existing app or delete its television devices or Flows**. Version 1.0.44 should update version 1.0.43 in place while preserving them. Afterwards, confirm that **Homey → Apps → Local webOS TV Controller** shows **v1.0.44 Test**.

Please test normal television control and reconnection after the television has been off for several hours. If anything fails, create a diagnostics report **before restarting the app** and send its reference to me privately. Please also include your TV model, exact webOS version, Wi-Fi/Ethernet connection, Homey model and whether polling is enabled.

This is an unreviewed Test candidate, not a confirmed universal fix. Homey will not automatically downgrade it to 1.0.43; any corrective rollback would require a later version.

Thank you to everyone helping me test it. Please let me know how you get on by commenting here.
