Hi. I use the unfolded circle app with my remote 3 and Homey. I find the remote losses connection periodically and that restarting the app in Homey corrects the problem. I was looking to see if I could use a flow to restart the app overnight but can’t see this as an option in the Then section of the flow Is it possible?? Thanks Chris ---

You have to enable the „Power User“ in the Homey smartphone app to get such a flow card: More → Settings → Experiments → Power User ---

When you’d like to help solving app issues, it’s a plus when you would like to inform the developer as well. Contact info: on the app page at the homey.app store. ---

You need to enable the Power User experiment like @DirkG suggested, and then you can choose the Flowcard from the “System” category: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/0/e01054b1756c0cd203ca6d07eb706b224fb79a17.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/6/e6460c9b6369fcd0459e19dffbdeb3838d77e86a.png) ---

For me the restart function is under the ‘apps’ cards and not under ‘system’. Maybe it has changed in the meantime. Just wanted to add this for future reference: ![Capture](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/f/af4f8cf9e56d5c8463a51f7b605de14ebf11fbe3.jpeg) I have the power user options activated, but I can’t find this option under ‘system’, only under ‘apps’. ---

I’m on the latest version and it’s still under System: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/2/d255ef92d233834feff70f3685652253a5d31e6e.png) Homey Pro 2019 FW 13.2.4 (latest as of 09-08-2026) ---

That might be the difference, I am on the Homey pro from early 2023 fw version 13.4.0, latest version as of today. ---

Correct. Athom changed that (added an App section with respective flowcards) in Homey Pro 2023 and newer models.
