I would like to use settings per zone that I can use to decide what should happen in that specific zone. E.g.: set heating low when not active for x hours / turn light on when active / turn light off when not active for x minutes, etc.  
Is there a (object oriënted) way to extend zones in homeyscript with extra fields, or is there a way to store a settings or ini file somewhere in the memory my Homey Pro, or any other ideas?  
I can off course store a json string to a variable, but that is not a very easy thing to manually adjust. Thats why I was thinking about an settings or ini file.

> Save and restore settings of devices or whole zones

And the discussion about the app for more details:
