Does anyone have an idea how I can have Homey show the measured value instead of the setpoint for my Tado devices?

Even there, in the tile only the setpoint is shown. On click I see the same as I see in the mobile app on long-press. I don’t see a difference 😕

Choose the big tiles for showing all values in the WebApp as Didier is showing.

You could add a virtual thermostat (not thermometer) to show the actual temperature on a 2nd tile.

Both tiles. The setpoint = 18°C and the room temp = 20°C

Thanks all, I found the big tiles option.

A bit further in time… Since v7.1 we can now select the value indicator on a device tile with the phone app.  
Great! Unfortunately not with tado° device tiles

I know I should contact support, but I don’t get why their app doesn’t comply to their own ‘rules’…

They have more than 1 app to maintain, just contact support and wait 4 months 🙂

I think they are following their own rules, it’s just that thermostats always show the set temperature. So a thermostat form anyone would be the same.  
I’m not saying it’s good as I would also prefer to see the current temperature but it is consistent.

Yea I know, but why do they keep writing “All your devices” and stuff. While “most/many of your devices” is more realistic.

This f.i. is not true (for thermostats f.i.):

But I’m not annoyed or something, there are workarounds for many things. It’s just a bit funny how they say A, and do B.  
With the generic zigbee update it’s the same kind of story.  
This isn’t true:
