Setting Up a Daily Reboot for Homey

Hey everyone, I’ve been trying to figure out how to set up a daily reboot for my Homey to keep things running smoothly. I’ve noticed that sometimes it gets a bit sluggish, especially after a few days of constant use. I stumbled upon the idea of creating a flow to reboot Homey every night, and I’m excited to share my experience and see if others have similar setups or tips!

First, I wanted to understand how to approach this. I’ve heard that Homey Beta allows for more advanced automation, so I decided to give it a try. I started by exploring the flow editor and looking for triggers related to system maintenance. The time trigger seemed perfect for scheduling the reboot at a convenient hour, like midnight when I’m asleep.

Next, I needed to find the right action to reboot Homey. After some research, I discovered that there’s a built-in system command specifically for rebooting. It was a bit tricky to locate at first, but once I found it, adding it to the flow was straightforward. I set the trigger to activate daily at midnight and linked it to the reboot command. The whole process took about 15 minutes, and now I have a reliable daily reboot without lifting a finger!

I’m curious to hear how others handle system maintenance. Do you have a similar setup, or do you prefer manual reboots? Any additional tips or alternative methods would be greatly appreciated. Let’s keep the conversation going and help each other optimize our smart homes!
