Hi, I am using the time functions in the flow, but this is not perfect as I have to change this time sometimes. Is there a way to get these function in a tile where I can set the time from the app without entering the flow? Let’s say I would like the time to be 6 and 10 instead of 07 and 11. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/0/205ac3f50c78652102e2e9c4ab463572b523e95e.png) Kind regards ---

Yes, use [TIMEY](https://homey.app/en-de/app/no.kjeet90.timey/Timey/) have fun! ---

You might be able to achieve this by: - Creating variables for each timestamp that you want to change; - Use the [Timey app](https://homey.app/en-nl/app/no.kjeet90.timey/Timey/) (as indicated above) for the WHEN cards, as that app allows variable inputs; - Put the variables on your Dashboard and change them from there using the Logic widget: ---

Hi, I didn’t quite get what the difference between Timey and Homey’s own date and time cards were? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/c/0c9d46ad9b3fc9f96e4a88b99d098f6163b17ee2.png) ---

I think solution will be the easiest. I created alarms from the app and named them. I am fully able to adjust the time from the phone without entering the flow. Thnak you! ---

I felt this was much more work than just implementing the alarm card from the phone app into the flow.
