I was out of the house earlier today for the first time w/2.1.1 (320) and was completely unable to use it. The app correctly showed Cloud connection on the home screen, but favorites would not appear on the Home screen, and nothing would appear on the Devices tab. Interestingly, Dashboards did load and could be opened.
Tried force-closing the app, cleared cache, nothing helped, I could never get the home screen to show favorites, or the Devices screen to show devices.
Back home now and everything looks fine. While I was away from home all other internet access (music/podcast streaming, internet browsing) worked fine. And of course Dashboards did appear and load in the HE app, so it was connecting to the interweb.
Yup, as noted in the OP, I was streaming podcasts and music, and surfing the internet while I was out on mobile data. Only the HE mobile app was having issues.
Oops - sorry, forgot to include that. Samsung S21. on Android 14, OneUI 6.1, Google Play system update, March 1 2025.
Just turned off Wi-Fi at home, phone moved to mobile data, same results as when I was out of my house...Favorites and Devices never appear. Dashboards do appear and can be opened.
@danabw,
I have tried switching between WiFi and cloud connection on my Samsung S25 ultra, and can I confirm that there was a moment where I thought that I was unable to connect using cloud connection... but switching between tabs and/or closing and re-opening the app, and a bit of patience...I was finally able to connect using cloud connection!
Also, although this new version seems to be a little better than the previous, still the connection between WiFi and cloud is not seamless at all, and requires closing and re-opening of app to establish and show the correct connection for Home and Devices page even though app settings seems to pickup the correct connection type!
Thanks for testing...I did those same things when I was away from home. Closing/force-stopping the app, clearing cache on the app, and none of those actions resolved my issues. I've waited up to a minute (timed myself so I wouldn't react too quickly) and the Favorites and the Devices tabs never populate... something not right for me.
Everything works on mobile {not wifi} for me except it takes some time for each tab to load. Had to finally close the app and restart to get notifications and favorites on the home page.
