I have a ds18b20 running on a smart implant , over to a virtual temp and then a vThermo thermostat. This setup has run very well for a long time. Now I sometimes experience that the vThermo teperature doesn’t update. When I turn WiFi and Homey off and on again, the temp comes back again. Any suggestions? Thanx in advance! ---

You have to do some debugging and testing, make a well educated guess what might cause the problem, and try to verify and proof your guess. By running parts of you flow and add loggings/messages/time line entries, excluding well functioning parts, until you isolated the problem. ---

Yepp, sounds logical. However, the signal path from the virtual to the vThermo is not through a flow. The vThermo just picks it up. I don’t understand how to go about finding tha fault here. Incidentally, I have the Homey Pro early 2019 ---

Aha, for one moment I thought Vthermo was a fysical device. So you readings of the DS18B20 are updated? Also on your virtual thermostat, but not always on Vthermo? ---

Yes, that is correct. ---

So the problem is in the app [VThermo App voor Homey | Homey](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/no.almli.thermostat/VThermo/) Contact the developer. ---

It turns out that a restart of the app makes it work. Why does the app fall out? How can I fix it? ---

An app restart often solves this. Next time prior to restarting the app, send a diagnostic report to the developer, with a good description of the issue(s); maybe there’s some error messages of some kind. ---

I need to restart vThermo more and more often. Does anyone else have a similar experience? Should I recover (upside down) my Homey? Should I delete and reinstall the vThermo device. Is there an issue of an overflowing memory?
