@msiekkinen This is great!!! So what did the final install look like? Has it held up?

As currently constituted, the FLIC hub only supports FLIC devices as "input" devices. But with the nature of Matter (devices can only be registered to one hub) means that I can't use any other input devices* to control a device that is currently being controlled by a FLIC button.
For example, I have a 4 button Leviton wall switch that is now getting Matter functionality. I want to be able to control a Matter device with both a Flic button/twist AND a button on my wall switch. To do this, there would have to be a facility to import a non-FLIC device on my Flic hub.
Maybe my lack of Matter knowledge is showing here, but I'm currently trying to wean off a home full of UPB devices- where it was a no-brainer to control a UPB device from one manufacturer with a UPB switch from a different manufacturer.
Does this make sense??

One of my scripts changes brightness based on the current time. I've noticed that FlicScript always uses UTC time, and there is no way to set a timezone in the app or even in code. When using new Date().toLocaleString('en-US', {timeZone: 'America/Los_Angeles'}) the UTC date is still returned.
It isn't too hard to just get the UTC time and change the hours offset manually (which I'm currently doing), but it becomes a hassle when changes with Daylight Savings Time is factored in.
Would is be possible to add a way to set the timezone in the app or something so that new Date() returns the date in the specified timezone (or the current location and timezone could be detected automatically), or at least make toLocaleString work properly so timezones can be adjusted manually an have DST accounted for automatically.
Thank you!

I am unable to find a way to disconnect the device that is currently connected to the hub/Flic button. I want to connect a new divide (add phone), but can't until the current one is disconnected. I get the message saying there is another device connected and it needs to be disconnected before continuing with the new device.
I tried the hard reset (pressing/holding the button for 15 sec), but that didn't do anything, and I am still unable to connect the new device.
I need this sorted asap as ATM my flic button is not working with the current setup. Help anyone? -
How exactly does Flic Universal's "Alternative keymap" work? Has anything about it changed with newer versions of iOS 18?
We program our Flic button for Flic Universal, configured to send the Enter key when clicked. We enable the "Alternative keymap" feature so iOS still shows the on-screen keyboard. It's used with a web application to trigger web page buttons. At some point between iOS 16 and iOS 18.3.2, this stopped working: the web page no longer responds to the Flic button. If we pair a regular Bluetooth keyboard along with the Flic button, then the Flic button works as expected. If we disable Flic's "Alternative keymap" feature, then the Flic button works as expected (but we lose the on-screen keyboard). This leads me to believe that something recently changed in iOS regarding how it handles Flic's "Alternative keymap" feature.
