What is a Easy Dashboard? - Something I'm not getting? - Habitat Dashboard (Legacy) Works for me though

New to this Hubitat c8 Pro, have devices on Z-wave working with automatons, remote control from buttons so far....

I create a dashboard but clicking the tile does nothing "Useful" in mobile App?

Also on devices if I turn something ON it doesn't show ON until I pull down to cause a page refresh then status shows. Shouldn't the status update after tapping?

Just need a Dashboard on App that can trigger ON/OFF for devices or rules by tapping just a tile which toggles state, This I can't figure out at day 3 of my learning adventure with Hubitat.

What mobile app version? On current iOS app the device tab is working fine for me, tiles refresh as soon as I tap on them. Dashboards also working fine.

On Android App (current) 2.0.4 (267)

Oddly enough the App started behaving on device tab.

Easy Dashboard however I have not figured out yet.....

Trying my luck at Legacy Hubitat Dashboard and finding it might do what I want, Thought Easy Dashboard meant easy...LoL apparently not :rofl:

Well Easy Dashboard is NOT EASY for me the Newbie....

Hubitat dashboard (Legacy) seems to work for me.

If you don't have any rooms created, go to Devices tab on the Mobile app and in the upper corner menu select "Show No Room Assigned." That's probably all you need to show On/Off devices, no Dashboard needed for those.

As for rules, that might be a little more complicated.

That's the power of Hubitat, it offers different ways of accomplishing what you need. You just have to pick the one that best suits your technical ability and preference. Glad to hear the Hubitat Dashboard works better for you.

I'm in to this 3 days now with no prior knowledge, all I could do with Easy Dashboard was create buttons that did absolutely nothing?

Like to know what I'm missing with using the Easy Dashboard, the built in tutorial doesn't help beyond creating the tile?

Have you seen this video?

Edit: Thanks for the help, will be doing plenty of learning for this new C8-Pro it looks like

I agree. Should be renamed "Advanced Dashboard" because legacy is way easier.

Would you care to elaborate on what makes the legacy dashboard easier, in your opinion?
