I have Tado X installed and working well. The devices came over easily with Matter.

I am however disappointed with the capabilities of Tado and its control options in Homey - i appreciate that Tado need to change some things but can anything be done in flows with homey?

Boost for example - I have tried to create a boost flow so that if I click boost, the thermostat will come on for 1 hour to a set temperature and then return to the set schedule.  
I cant do that. Flows only allow heat, cool, off and auto. Auto doesnt revert it back to schedule. Is this a homey issue or a tado issue?  
Is there a better app i can use for heating flows?  
Is it a limitation of Matter devices?

Thanks all

Homey’s Matter implementation is very limited, Matter as a protocol supports boost-like features (like setpoint-hold or possible emergency heating) for thermostats, but Homey doesn’t. A lot of Matter devices are _also_ limited in what they support over Matter, though.
