No available flows in iOS widget

Questions & Help
1

I recently added the iOS widget to my home screen, but I am unable to add any flows to it. The widget is simply a “Create flow in the Homey-app” (which only opens the app), and if I press and hold it, then press the plus sign to add a new object there are no available options to select from. Searching on the “add object” page gives no results.

Are there any settings or something that must be done in the app or on the phone? Or perhaps in the flows? I have looked for things that seem related to the widget but with no success so far.

I have the 7.6.0 version of the Homey app, and I have a couple of favorite flows in it. my phone is running iOS 17.2

Hi there,

I’m experiencing the same thing.
When I try to use Siri automations it also kills the shortcuts app as soon as I select the homey app.

Hopefully someone knows what’s up.

Same - everything worked fine, then suddenly one day all my favorite flows disappeared from the widget.

Usual issue with Homey - everything works ok, they update something, and it all stops working until you reconfigure everything.

Anybody who knows how to resolve this in the meanwhile?

I bought an iPhone 15 Pro and experience the same problem as described. Have flows marked as favorite in Homey Pro 2023, which on my old iPhone showed in the widget as expected. Now the “add object” page gives no results as well.

Same here, I just moved over to a new iPhone 15 and suddenly I cannot get my widget(s) to work anymore.
Already reinstalled the app, but that didnt fix it.
It still works on my ipad

@ all:
Posting here doesn’t help: you’ll have to inform Athom by creating a ticket at Support | Homey

Of course I reported this to Homey. But it will take at least 2 weeks before they will answer the question.

Posting here can definitely help, maybe another user already found a solution.

Well, that’s not what they say, but you are not the first who reads it that way :man_shrugging:
They say expect the response time to be one or 2 weeks:

Many times they respond within one or a few days. Of course they have a priority system, the smallest issue will probably get a longer response time;
when your Homey melted down, you mosr probably will get a quick response.

I’m experiencing the same now when reverting back to an old IPhone 12 Pro (with ios 17.5.1 ) from iPhone 15 pro, “no options available” is the text in both widget and shortcut app:

Did you get any attention from support @Eric_Wijdeman ?

The solution discussed in this topic helped me solve three issues that are apparently related:

  • No flows showing up in the iPhone’s Shortcuts app (while available on iPad)
  • No flows showing up on Apple Watch / message telling me to log in to Homey
  • Not receiving notifications on iPhone / notifications section not available in the Homey section of the iPhone’s Settings app

Solution:

  1. Open the Homey app on iPhone

  2. Tap the … section tab in the bottom righthand corner

  3. In the next screen tap your Homey device in the top of the screen

  4. In the following screen again tap your Homey device

  5. Next confirm the message/question whether Homey may send you notifications
