I’m attaching a video showing a weird behavior with Moods: they work much better from the widget than when I trigger them from inside the Homey app.

Specifically, when using the app it feels like I have to **wait** a few minutes after opening/navigating before the Mood becomes actionable (or before the action actually succeeds). From the widget, the response is immediate or at least much more consistent.

Has anyone else noticed this since the latest firmware update? Could this be a bug in the new firmware, or is it a known issue (cache/sync/UI)?

Thanks!
