I’m not able to access CoRE via the smartapps section, I get a new page I haven’t seen before, an exclamation mark and “Something’s wrong” “We can’t load your screen right now”, is this a new feature? ---

So seeing this 2 screen shots. I see version 2.3.8 but the top talking about 2.3.5 can you explain please? ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/smartthings/original/3X/3/d/3dc96b1857b9401ad8db3359da31f1d597dccd2b.png) ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/smartthings/original/3X/5/0/500cc8daec505421fb2d61fe41e6d661942348bb.png) Edit: Not usable on Android pixel 7.1 with ST 2.3.7 and this 2.3.8 still. The app crashed on almost every other click on any device. ---

This version breaks Smart Lighting. I get that Something’s Wrong message when I try to open or create a new lighting automation. I wasn’t experiencing any problems until I upgraded to this version. ---

I just don’t understand what’s so hard about fixing the font scaling in device tiles. ---

Confirmation of Smart Lighting above. I have a few Automations setup under Smart Lighting and when pressing in any of them Oops Something Wrong! I also noticed the two blank lines under the Smart Lighting Automations screenshot above. I have 2 blank entries on mine as well. Fun day. I swore I was going to wait until 2.3.9 to manually update from 2.3.5. LMFAO Shame on me! ---

They made modifications to it because Smart Lighting is working again. Winder how many other apps will have this issue. ---

State of devices in the things overview still gets stuck. @tonesto7 do you use the Thermostat multiattribute tile for your Nest devices? I dont have a Nest thermostat, but the Thermostat multiattribute tile is broken for my thermostats. Same with Nest on Android? ---

Same here. Device state in things not updating. If I kill the app and restart, it updates, but not sure for how long. Will tty to keep an eye on it today. ---

Thank you, I’m missing the “cooling/heating to” on two different thermostats dth. It only appears when I make a change, but when I go back and in to the device, it’s gone again, can’t find out why. IOS is fine though ---

What’s the status of the scanning the Wifi network and adding everything found “feature”? I haven’t updated since it was implemented and have not been following the discussion on it. Has it been dialed back yet or do I need to keep waiting to update? ---
