I think that homey overall should do more in proactively monitoring devices. I often only notice that devices are not working when I need the (data from the) device. As homey keeps showing the last state of the device I’m even then not always triggered that there is an issue. I using some flows to monitor it myself. But this should be a build in feature. ---

Good suggestion, but not all devices can be monitored for that. I have a lot of zigbee and 344 devices that only send data, not receive, and they only send data when something happens… Water leak sensor for example, or window sensors. I try with the script suggested here 🙂 ---

I love this idea. I have reoccurring problems with 433 Mhz sensors (yes I know it’s a crappy protocol) and it’s a pain to scroll through the device list to find devices that Homey has started to ignore. > [@Robert\_Elbertse](#): > > I think that homey overall should do more in proactively monitoring devices. Agree 100%! ---

Modern monitoring systems use pattern recognition. If you get a few notifications a day from your 433 device then is will give an alert if this does not happen for a whole day. The more predictable the usage of a device the easier it is to notice something is off. ---

@Paxman Yeah, with Homey you can check for unresponsive (one-way) sensors like this: Contact ![Screenshot_20250906_162037_Firefox](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/e/fefbc90be3eb886cced14f0177132150e5042128.jpeg) ![Screenshot_20250906_162055_Firefox](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/3/e37d9b74129c4dfd290028a285e4919139507d17.jpeg) Motion ![Screenshot_20250906_162113_Firefox](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/6/e6459d7b9157b8e1d574296073ca68fb54569400.jpeg) ![Screenshot_20250906_162129_Firefox](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/f/cf9dd45bca518766c8e76e2f50a857fe2a54ee7e.jpeg) . This card should do the trick, but it doesn’t work reliably at all (on both of my Homey’s): ![Screenshot_20250906_162418_Firefox](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/6/065ad745f4b61a6e04c9dba90ebb308a95279aba.jpeg) ---
