Widget button

Recently received homey and is working better than I thought it would. Good job guys.
Does anyone know if there is an android widget button which would work to trigger a flow? Seems like a simple thing to do bit would be very useful.

    These are still under development. You could use pushbullet, pushalot or pushover meanwhile...
    edit: If these only work one-way I'm wrong... Then you'd better use tasker or IFTTT as mruiter says.

    you could use the IFTTT  it can make nice buttons to switch tasks like app icons on android.
    Also poeple are using Tasker for it but is a bit more complex.

    The pushes Bas mentioned are for notifications on phone and other devices if im not mistaken.
    Thats not what you are looking for.

    Need to use maker channel with do button. Ps you can only create do buttons on the mobile app for some strange reason and not on ifttt. In fact there's a video guide on the ifttt app.

    Would be great if you could creat a speech trigger button without opening the mobile app
