Quick settings tile - Unable to connect when Hue Essentials isn't opened

Hi,

I’m using HE on my Nokia 8.1 using android 11. I’ve got it connected to my Tradfri hub and can control all the devices in the network without issues when the app is opened. However, the quick settings tile only works when HE is opened as well. When I switch to any other app, or just my home screen, and try and use the toggle switch, I get an error ‘Unable to Connect - The bridge cannot be reached. Please check your internet connection.’ My phone is connect to wifi when this happens, and the error goes away if I reopen HE and then try and use the quicktile (which defeats the purpose of the quicktile). Does anybody have any suggestions?

Best,
P

I have the same. Been annoying me for a while now

Had the same problem. Enabling the persistent control notification and hiding it in the android settings fixed this for me. pixel 6a
