Expression trigger captured for Trigger ID
Flow Gadgets
Generic helper cards for Homey Advanced Flows.
Flow Gadgets adds powerful shortcut cards for Homey Advanced Flows. The app is designed to reduce long chains of standard cards by combining calculations, comparisons, mappings, conditions, and temporary values into compact, reusable cards.
One of the main strengths of Flow Gadgets is its shared numeric expression logic. Most numeric fields across the app accept not only plain numbers, but also resolved Homey tags, simple formulas, parentheses, and deadband blocks.
For example, instead of using only a tag like: #Load you can use an expression such as: {(#Load - #PV) * #Efficiency; -10; 10} This formula logic is available in many cards, including simple numeric helpers such as Invert number.
Flow Gadgets also includes powerful mapping cards. You can map numbers to ranges, numeric scales, or text scales using pipe-separated lists. Thresholds and numeric list entries can also use formulas, making it possible to build compact but flexible logic in a single card.
Another key feature is expression-based condition handling. Flow Gadgets can check multiple conditions in one card, using numbers, booleans, text comparisons, formulas, and deadband logic. This can replace large groups of separate logic cards and keeps Advanced Flows cleaner and easier to maintain.
Temporary values can be stored in RAM, read later in the same flow or from another flow, and automatically expire after 3, 15, or 60 minutes.
Flow Gadgets works locally on Homey and does not send data to external servers.
A complete user guide is available on the developer website. See the link at the bottom of this page.

Når...
This When card is triggered by the Capture trigger card. It does not receive its trigger impulse directly from a device. The Capture trigger card checks its expressions first and only triggers this card when all expressions are true and the Trigger ID matches.

Is Formula Comparator Compare value?
Only numbers, resolved numeric tags, +, -, *, /, (), and deadband blocks in the form {expression; min; max} are allowed. Use a dot as decimal separator. The compare value can also be a formula. Deadband limits are inclusive. Nested deadband blocks are allowed.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Value is between Minimum value and Maximum value using Range mode?
Checks whether a numeric value is inside a defined range. You can choose whether both limits are included, excluded, or only one side is included. min_value must be less than or equal to max_value. All numeric fields also accept simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks.
Flow Gadgets
Is Value positive?
Checks whether a number is positive. For practical Flow usage, 0 is treated as positive because it is not negative. When this condition is inverted, it checks whether the number is negative. The value field also accepts simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks.
Flow Gadgets
Boolean list Boolean values matches Mode
Checks a pipe-separated list of boolean values.
Flow Gadgets
Expressions match: Expressions
Checks a pipe-separated list of expressions. The pipe character means AND. The card returns true only when all expressions are true. Numeric comparisons may contain simple formulas using +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks after Homey tags have been resolved. Important: Do not mix trigger-specific tags from different source trigger cards. Homey only resolves the tags of the trigger that actually started the flow.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Expressions for State ID changed from false to true: Expressions
Checks a pipe-separated list of expressions. The pipe character means AND. This card returns true only when all expressions are true now and the previous stored result for this State ID was not true. The first true result after an app restart also counts as a false-to-true change. The state is stored in memory and is reset when the Flow Gadgets app restarts. This card does not trigger another card.

Flow Gadgets
Value Value changed enough from last accepted value under ID Storage ID by +Minimum increase / -Minimum decrease
Stores the first value and returns true. Afterwards, it only returns true when the value is at least the configured increase higher or decrease lower than the last accepted value. When true, the current value becomes the new accepted value. Stored values expire after 48 hours or after an app restart. The numeric fields also accept simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks. Storage ID is only used as an ID.

Flow Gadgets
Generate random integer from Minimum value to Maximum value
Generates a cryptographically strong random integer. Minimum and maximum are both included. Both fields also accept simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks, but the final results must be whole numbers. Example: min 1 and max 6 returns 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Round Value to Decimals decimals using Rounding mode
Rounds a numeric value to the selected number of decimal places. Standard rounding rounds values below .5 down and values from .5 up. Always round down uses floor. Always round up uses ceil. The value field also accepts simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks. Decimals stays a whole-number setting.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Return absolute value of Value
Returns the absolute value of a number. Negative values become positive, positive values stay unchanged. The value field also accepts simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Calculate absolute difference between First value and Second value
Calculates the absolute difference between two numeric values. The result is always positive or 0. Both fields also accept simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Apply deadband to Value from Minimum deadband value to Maximum deadband value
Returns 0 when the numeric value is inside the deadband range. Otherwise returns the original value. The range is inclusive: min_deadband <= value <= max_deadband. All numeric fields also accept simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Clamp Value between Minimum value and Maximum value
Limits a numeric value to a defined range. If the value is below the minimum, the minimum is returned. If it is above the maximum, the maximum is returned. Otherwise, the original value is returned. All numeric fields also accept simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Calculate average from number list Number list
Enter a list of numeric values separated by |. Spaces around values are ignored. Each list entry also accepts simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks. Use a dot as decimal separator. Empty entries or invalid numeric values will stop the Flow with an error.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Calculate median from number list Number list
Enter a list of numeric values separated by |. Spaces around values are ignored. Each list entry also accepts simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks. Use a dot as decimal separator. Empty entries or invalid numeric values will stop the Flow with an error. If the list has an even number of values, the median is the average of the two middle values.

Flow Gadgets
Calculate percentage of Value from Total value
Calculates how much percent a value is of a total value using (value / total_value) * 100. To avoid division by zero, total_value is internally treated as 1 when it is 0. Both fields also accept simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Calculate percentage change from Old value to New value
Calculates the percentage change from an old value to a new value. The difference keeps its sign, but the reference value is based on the absolute old value. To avoid division by zero, old_value is internally treated as 1 when it is 0. Both fields also accept simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
Map Value from Input minimum-Input maximum to Output minimum-Output maximum
Maps a numeric value from one range to another. Values outside the input range are not clamped; use the Clamp number card if needed. The input minimum and input maximum must not be equal. All numeric fields also accept simple formulas with +, -, *, /, parentheses and deadband blocks.
Advanced
Flow Gadgets
