Hi! Is there any way to restart an app via a flow or homey script? Reason: Sometimes certain apps start to act up and needs to be (manually) restarted to work again. How do you get the app ID for an app, by the way? Many thanks!

Activate ‘PowerUser’ in Homey settings/experiments. Then you can use a flow action from category ‘system’.

try Search restart app: 50+ results for restart app

strange!! https://homey.app/f/OzKlbb/

Thank you! Perfect! :slight_smile:

It’s not under "system"anymore. It’s under the category “apps” now

OK, not on my Homey :upside_down_face: [20230525_215446]

I see. Please keep in mind there are 3 different Homey models when making statements :wink:
