Hi there,

SInce a week or so I 've had so many problems with Tuya lights, fan and sensor breaking. They will show as ‘‘not connected’’. I’ve tried repairing and that helps for like 3 min. Some devices will work, some won’t and 5 min later nothing responding again.

I’ve tried re-installing Tuya app on Homey… still the same problem.

Never had problems with Tuya until a week or so. Are there more people with this issue and got is resolved? I can’t replace everything just yet.

_Yes I know.. never get tuya products. I didn’t know this 4 years ago. Now I do._

Same problem, First I repair in Homey the TUYA-device, read the QR-code en login. That has no direct results. Then I turn off Homey, wait until it has started again and than all TUYA-device are working again. But for how long??? Last week I had to do that every day, sometimes twice a day.

Though you don’t mention it, I assume you use the official Tuya app for Homey. Suggest you contact the developer of the app via the contact details included on the [app store page of the Tuya app](https://homey.app/a/com.tuya2/).

There is also a dedicated topic on this forum for that app, where you’ll find similar reports by other users and also the same contact details of the developers: [[APP] Tuya - Smart Life. Smart Living](https://community.homey.app/t/app-tuya-smart-life-smart-living/146735).

We’ve had dozens of emails already, and every additional mail we get means more time spent sending the same answer that cannot be spent on the investigation. Rest assured, we’re looking into this!
