Hi  
I’m new to Homey and imported over 50 Homematic devices. All worked fine but I couldn’t give the devices a descriptive name as the web interface only shows the Homematic cryptic ID.  
Then I’ve learned in the forum that device names can be renamed but only on a smartphone. Please implement this functionality also on the Web Interface

Thank you  
Daniel
