  [FEATURE REQUEST] Flic Hub (and app) Enhancements for scale

  I'd forgotten about this post. I received my Flic Hub quite a while ago and was unable to use it for my whole-house solution of replacing light switches with Flic buttons. For me, it was a complete waste of money, and I'm upset it didn't fit my needs.

  Have there been any updates to the Flic Hub software to allow scaling to the number of Flic buttons and all possible configurations? I actually do use every press state for each button and more.

  Is it possible the range has been improved through a firmware update? My biggest problem from my very first use of the Flic Hub was its extremely limited range compared to various versions of my Raspberry Pis. I'm not sure how 64 devices would be even feasible considering just 1 device would quickly go out of range. It's not that I mean to carry my buttons around the house, just that I'd have to buy about 10 Flic Hubs to cover the area of 4 Raspberry Pis from my initial range testing.

  Hi. If you see the LED blink on the hub when you press a button - that means the hub processes the button click. Philips Hue run on the LAN so it doesn't connect any backend servers or so. One reason it might stop to work is if the Hue bridge changes IP addresses (which is up to your router). You could try give it a static IP address.

  Regarding this forum, it is generally meant to be a community forum and not a support forum. If you need support, please contact support (at) shortcutlabs.com where we have dedicated people to answer your requests.

  If you connect to the hub using your phone, your hub will be added to your Flic account, so that when you log in to IFTTT's website, you will be able to see all Flics connected to your hub in the list of Flics when you create or modify an IFTTT applet.

  The second step I don't see you have done is in the Flic app add the IFTTT action to the button you want to use IFTTT with. This is so that the hub contacts IFTTT when you press the button.

  Hi @nadia,

  Thanks for providing this update. Any chance you could share some of the specifics around this? Is it around the way that HomeKit models a button for example and the state around this?

  For me, the FlicHub would also make a great relay for HomeKit devices that use Bluetooth - I have some sensors that communicate like this and they only sync while my phone is close.

  In general is there anywhere to see a roadmap of what you folks are working on?

  Finally just to say that I love using the Flic buttons with the new Hub, it has expanded their use enormously :-)

  Thanks,
  Sam

  @ap-iotbutton That means that TLS certificate validations are skipped, which should only be used for self-signed certificates that the system normally doesn't trust. Can you please tell me the domain name of the website you try to connect to, so we can check if a root certificate is missing?

  I am also having a problem, I have 7 Flic Hubs that I am using and I am want to know do the Flic Hubs go into a sleep mode. It seems that it takes a couple button pushes to get it to send a message through Slack. Then I get them all at the same time. After that they work fine until there is a long period of time passes and we have to do the same thing again.

  Hi! This feature is only available in the phone tab in the Android app. Due to Apple restrictions, it's not possible for us to implement it on iOS devices. We'll let you know if we plan to add it to the hub tab as well!

  This is a big deal. 3,000 s/ft home and I can’t accommodate multiple flic buttons due to lack of range and wall interference.

  There needs to be a way to mesh the buttons together to act as repeaters to increase the range of my hub.

  Right now hub range maxes out at 30 ft.

  Just bumping this - It would be good to understand whether this functionality will be enabled (given that shortcut labs wrote the linux driver, and all the functionality should be there already???), or whether the flics and flic hub remains locked down and hence way less useful.
