Strange discussion, a flow is not like playing a record or so, a flow is started by a trigger and is then executed (within microseconds), if you don’t want it to run, disable it, and if you want to run it again, enable it. Disable and Enable can be done via a flow or manual. Every one with some experience in programming via flows can see, this the best way to handle. ---

> [@JPe4619](#): > > is then executed (within microseconds), Without delays in the Aktion cards, you are right. But with delays the flow is running = max. delay. ---

Request or not. Sense or nonsense. In the meantime. Create a flow for you batterie maintenance: Wehen Flow Is startet Then disable all affected flows And after x minutes enable all flows again. In this case you have only one Klick instead of many clicks for each of your flows! ---

Then it would be easier when a group of flows can be disabled for a while, when i need to disable a lot of flows it’s still a lot of work. [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/pause-flow-cards/16185.md?page=2)
