Sharing Flows

  • Updated

With Share a Flow, you can quickly and easily share your Flow with others, even if they don’t have a Homey device. Sharing your Flows with others can help inspire them with new ideas for home automation. But only people with your magic link have access to your Flow. You can Share a Flow in two different ways.

Sharing a Flow from your mobile device

  1. In the Homey mobile app, tap on Flow in the main menu to open the Flow editor, and click on the Flow you want to share.
  2. Tap on the Share icon right next to the settings button → choose the platform → add your personal message.
  3. Press Send.

Embedding a Flow on your website

Do you have a WordPress website or blog? This plugin allows you to easily add your Flow to WordPress - and your blog posts, so readers can quickly share your content.

Who can see your shared Flows

Anyone that has the shared link will be able to see the Flow you shared. Other people won’t be able to see your shared Flow.

A shared Flow will always be visible – even if you removed it.

Note: Make sure to send a new link when you change or update your Flow.
Warning: Even if the original creator is no longer around, the shared Flow remains.
