Do you perhaps have (enabled) copies of the flow, that could trigger the extra notifications? ---

No, no copies of any of my flows. That said, I always get 2 push notifications on my other flows that I have push notifications on. I have notifications on my mode flows (day, night, away) ---

That’s weird. If you create a new blank flow with only a start/play button and a push notification card, and send a notification to yourself, do you also get two or more notifications? ---

Hi, When I made a new flow with only a play button and a push notification. I only get one notification. I think I need to do a deep dive into my flow’s, because something is wrong with them 😄 ---

Yes, most probably there is a flow that reacts on the turn on (or off) flow from the above units and does a different flow there ---

I solved the issue by making a flow for each push notification and made a trigger in the original flow to start the flow with the corresponding push notification ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/2/6213bd320d1d6a1a909103c0d5dd9bc661fcafcf.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/7/c7d88eb5a3e90e749f1c8d14cf4a1640bc5aebf7.png) [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/push-notification-when-a-flow-is-started/141286.md?page=1)
