# How to request a custom picker?

**Please do not leave any likes to these requests, i’ll use the like to mark if it’s done!).  
You can like this Topic tho 😉**

To request a custom picker/list for the [Advanced Virtual Devices](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-advanced-virtual-device-device-capabilities-app-with-unique-text-status-indicator/68198) from the [Device Capabilities](https://homey.app/a/nl.qluster-it.DeviceCapabilities/) App, please leave a post on this topic, in the below given format and make sure to place it in a preformatted-text ( ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/0/a0c2632ffecb6f7644f59135f994461198d661b5.png))!

_Please note: You can also request a ternary (3 buttons exactly), but you need to make that very clear!_  
_This is only usefull so you have the correct values in the ternary, the 3 buttons are always the same 😉_

After i have added it to the App, i’ll leave a like, which will mean it in in [Test](https://homey.app/a/nl.qluster-it.DeviceCapabilities/test/) !  
_Each new picker has to go through the App submition validation._

You need to deliver the next, based on your needs ofc, in EN, NL and DE:  
And you need
