I have a wall mounted iPhone that always is on and is showing the «dashboard» on the Home Tab of the Homey app.

Apparently the wifi connection is not 100% stable and some times when I come home it displays a screen in Homey saying: «Can´t connect to Homey Pro. Make sure the Homey Pro is correctly connected with an active network connection. (Retry button)».

When I press «Retry» the it will show the dashboard again, because the network connection have been restored.

Suggestion: When the Homey App looses connection to the Homey Pro it should try to reconnect automatically every 2 minutes or so.

Good idea!

Maybe something like:

```auto
No of Retries: (1-10) 
Interval: (1-10) mins

```

Your wifi probably is not the cause;  
It’s a very old bug: Homey is online, but the app somehow loses connection / can’t connect without us pushing that dreaded green or blue button.

I have exactly the same problem with an iPad that is permanently connected and regularly displays this message.  
Since it is not possible to stabilize and fix the underlying problem, the “retry” solution should provide an acceptable workaround.
