They should leave possibility to choose what GUI you want.

Contrast of the device tiles in the web app got some updates:

Small upgrade but in the right direction

haha. now the contrast is a bit better but the difference between active and inactive tiles are not visible (for dark mode)! 🤣

Like in the mobile app, the active devices have a slightly lighter shade of gray. Though, the difference in shade is indeed not as clear as before.

Why don’t they make the entire background a color like yellow when a device that has on/off/play (actionable) capability turns ON instead of the light gray? Would be so much easier to spot. I’m sure there is a reason I just don’t know what it is.

Readability of text in grey still horrible regardless of light/dark mode. Amateurish.

The presentation of window or door contacts is strange to me.
For example, it shows “Contact” when the window is open.
I would prefer the text to show “Open” or “Close”.

Would even be nicer if you had the option to configure your own labels per alarm.
E.g. in my case I am using a water sensor as a binary switch for a pressure sensor in my bed. This sensor sets my sleep state in Homey. Since it is a water sensor, the label on the tile indicates ‘water alarm’. I would like to change that to a more meaningful pressure/occupancy related label. Now Homey seems to think that I am wetting my bed 🤣.

Yes, it looks so bad. It is hard to see if device is on or off.
I am really happy there is an old local WEB GUI version I can use on my laptop. I am using old app version on phone too. The new look is at ALPHA at this moment.

How do you change back to the old version of the web ui?

Use the local web app, [http://homey.ip.address/](http://homey.ip.address/)
Only that’ll work until it gets an update as well. Then we’re ~~fucked~~ supposed to get used to it 🤣

I wonder what this “Web App” settings tab is for. I don’t have it on my Homey Pro 2019, is it only on the newer generations?

It’s the link to the account manager, it shows on my Pro 2019s as well.
When I recall it well, your Pro 2019 runs older firmware, which might explain

I don’t mean the Family and Guests, I mean the option “Web App” that shows in the support screenshot
My Homey Pro runs older firmware, yes. But it’s also missing on a Homey Cloud instance

Ah, the highlighted entry got me 😁
I don’t have the “Web App” entry on my Pro 2026 (stable fw v13.3.0)
Who posted that screenshot, Sven?

Ah, I see.
It’s most probably a screenshot of one of the in-house developers web app versions, Sven

Found it, it’s just a hidden option:
Go to the General settings and replace the last part of the URL (general) with “webapp”. Like this:
> **[My Homey](https://my.homey.app/settings/system/webapp)**
>
> Homey Web App
