I love the new climate module that Homey has introduced and I would to use the average temperature calculated to trigger flows. Does anyone have an idea if this is possible in any way?

By using:

> **[Better Logic Library](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/net.i-dev.betterlogic/Better-Logic-Library/)**
>
> Just some better logic, variable and library management

round(mean(temp1,temp2,temp3),2)

Gives the average temperature with 2 decimals.

AFAIK you cannot use the value of the climate module.  
So indeed you need to calculate by yourself.

A second way to do this is by creating an advanced virtual device with [Device Capabilities](https://homey.app/en-us/app/nl.qluster-it.DeviceCapabilities/Device-Capabilities/) and create a number field that can reflect multiple sensors as below

It’s possible with the \< group \> app, by creating a new device with the separate sensors. After that it’s possible to chose which temperature (highest, lowest, average) should be used for the flow cards.

Yess, this works…

And in the same line of thinking I want to create a “ **Hitte Alarm** ” modus… Knowing when to

- close windows (preventing external heat coming in)
- open windows (to get lower temperature coming in)
- To close the blinds / rolluit based on solar power  
Combining actual and predicted outside temperature…And the difference inside and outside  
I think I need a trend calculation to measure if the value of the temperature is going up or down.

And in the Winter a different modus off course

Have a look at [Insight Trends](https://homey.app/en-il/app/com.spkes.insightTrendsReloaded/Insight-Trends-Reloaded/)

It lets you determine that for any period in the past

Pity [Insight Trends](https://homey.app/en-il/app/com.spkes.insightTrendsReloaded/Insight-Trends-Reloaded/) doesn’t work yet for Homey Pro (2025-11-16T23:00:00Z)

Are you sure?

The app store page of the [Insight Trends](https://homey.app/en-nl/app/com.spkes.insightTrendsReloaded/Insight-Trends-Reloaded/) app indicates:

Nope,

still not working, no flow card

It looks installed but when I want to restart the system replies: “Not installed”
