Yesterday there was an energy widget (official) available. Today it’s gone. What happened? I have the latest beta app. Edit: There was also a widget for the lights, energy and climate “buttons” from the device tab, but this is also gone. ---

Are you sure? the energy widget has only been announced (not even shown) on the last podcast. Maybe you are misremembering with the insights widget. Light and climate widgets are there. The light and climate options are on the “devices” page only, if there is any light or climate devices in the selected (sub) zones. ---

100% sure. No I’m not mistaking it for insights. And I don’t mean the seperate light and thermostat widgets. There was a widget for adding the same buttons from the top of the device tab. I guess they are testing them, and they slipped through for a moment somehow. I wish I took screenshots 😅 I even posted about the energy widget in another thread: > [@Homey Dashboards — Public Beta Megathread](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-dashboards-public-beta-megathread/116963/606): > > The energy widget seems to be very picky about what devices I can add to it. What capabilities are required? > In the settings it asks me to add an energy meter. But I can’t even add my Tibber Pulse, and that is nothing but an energy meter. ---

The light part (over ~~8 months~~ 1 year ago) and climate part ( ~~also about 3-4~~ 8 months ago) have been there for a some time and both have been announced in a newsletter, they have not slipped through. Try rebooting your Homey. Have not seen anything related to an energy widget made by Athom. Sure you aren’t thinking of the energy button in the devices tab? Which is the actual (old) energy tab. ---

Haha, no offence, but I know the difference between dashboard widgets and the device page of the Homey app 😉 I know a had these widgets available the other day, and they have since disappeared. So probably they will be available again soon. Guess I’m lucky to have had a sneak peak. So spoiler alert: The energy widget gives you live view of a devices power usage (watts) With some history in a chart. I was only able to add smart plugs, so I guess it had some shortcomings. The (I believe it was called a zone-widget or something similar) is basically the exact same thing the one top of the device page but I was able to select one or more between at least lights, climate and energy. Don’t remember if media and activity was available, but I assume it was. ---

Light and climate widgets yes, i use these myself. But as stated before havent seen anything related to an energy widget, not even in the alpha testing group. ---

If you don’t believe me, that’s fine. I guess you will just have to wait and see as I’m sure they are right around the corner. Just because YOU haven’t seen it doesn’t mean they don’t exist 😉 ---

It disappeared for sure, but I also can’t find announcements for the widget. So probably it was a release glitch somehow. Both Energy and Lights widgets are gone: > ![1000037713](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/e/8efb271b116b0525d89b9a9dc91abb20de582a10.jpeg) It was this light widget (being the same as the light “master” switch at the “Devices” tab): > ![1000037715](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/c/ecc5b2ffa0532a280657f540ce83cf595871d583.jpeg) To be clear it wasn’t this one (which is still there): > ![1000037717](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/0/c09127d13a4fe60ae9c9414b9f3cfcc32e6c7c52.jpeg) ---

We are testing the Energy and Controls Widget, they slipped through to the Beta version 🙈 Have patience because they will be there soon 👈 😬 ---
