3 events triggering when contact sensor opens

In the last few days, when my SmartThings contact sensor opens, I am seeing 3 “Contact was opened” events, instead of just 1 event. This used to work fine, i.e. I used to see only 1 event, until a few days ago, when I started seeing 3 events.

Anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

There has been a known problem for a few days where multiple events are being sent for some smartapps (not the device itself). ST is aware of this and is working on it.

One community member believes it’s related to push notifications, but that hasn’t been officially confirmed. See the following topic for discussion of the problem:

MiniMote doubling button press?

My Minimote starting acting odd last night. When I the button to turn lights on or off, it sends both commands. The lights will instantly come on, and then, they will go off. If you look at the activity logs, it shows that the light were sent the on command and then sent the off command, but I only pressed the button once. (If they are already on, the reverse happens.) Anyone else seeing this? Everything seems to work fine through the mobile app, and all my scheduled and presence events are working fine. It’s just the Minimote that’s giving me weirdness. (Oh, and I did power cycle my hub. It didn’t help.) Any thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks!
