  @oskar I also think its really sad, that there was never any follow up considering developer access from your side although this was mentioned in the indiegogo. There you state "basically an advanced Linux computer, much like a better-looking Raspberry Pi, with a two separate Bluetooth controllers (yep, two)" but a bird (in this case the Raspberry Pi) in the hand is worth two in the bush. I would really appreciate having ssh access to the flic hub to do custom scripts. One way would be to provide a standalone linux version so you don't have to worry about security of the platform for yourself. Much like the solution you offer with the fliclib-linux-hci on github where you can run your own flic server. I was hoping this would happen with the flic hub too.

  It should work as long as you don't toggle Bluetooth, exit & enter airplane mode etc. At least that's what Apple says. If it doesn't work, then Apple has a bug.

  @Emil Really? This is the exact reason why I just backed your new campaign... I was told that it wasn't going to happen. And it's why I backed the initial campaign, because it was promised. I'm confused and a bit bummed. I'll keep my pledge open, because I actually still believe in your product in general, and was interested in the updated button - but man, y'all could have been a HEAP more transparent about this.

  You can pair the button to multiple devices and assign the same config. But the button itself can only be connected to one device at a time. So if you have two paired devices nearby and the button has gone to sleep, when you then press the button, it will connect to the device that responds quickest.

  @Emil I'm having issues with setting up the new hub I just received. I have successfully added it to my network using Ethernet NOT WiFi. I have added it to my phone successfully, but once it's added and I click on the hub icon, it states "Loading Configuration" then "Authorizing Credentials", both of which are successful...then it just times out. Now I'm suspicious that I need to be closer to the hub the change any settings... Bluetooth is in no way shape of form superior, to me being able to wander my home, with my cell phone on WiFi and configure and control things. Please don't tell me that everytime I want to change a setting I have to be close?

  Flic Hub loses Philips Hue functionality after some days

  Hello Alex, Yes, I have something similar – but I think it's the Flic Hub losing connectivity, not the Philips Hue connection per se. My Flic is on Wifi and I think, for some reason, the DHCP lease doesn't renew properly, cutting off Flic's connectivity. I've had two hubs now, and they both behave the same. Have you tried just rebooting the Flic hub, rather than resyncing the Hue, to see if that fixes it? If it does, then it sounds like the same behaviour as mine – and I'd suggest there is a problem with the Flic Hub. Cheers, Mark

  This would be really useful on the hub, and would make life so much easier - which is exactly the aim of the flic buttons ;) Do you already have plans to add this?

  I'm having a similar issue with one of my Lifx lights - I have 28 downlights and I've successfully connected groups of them to several Flics via my hub. Everything worked fine on the first day, then one of the lights stopped responding via the LAN protocol. In the app it appeared in the list as an IP address rather than its name. I tried resetting the light, assigning new ip address and changing the name but no dice. I replaced the light with a spare and successfully got it working with the Flic for that room. The next day, a different light in the same group of lights dropped off the list with the same behaviour. Cloud control works fine. Control of the light works fine via the lifx app, which I assume is working via LAN as it's pretty fast. At this stage I'm not sure if it's a Lifx issue or a Flic issue - I could replace the light again but at 100 dollary-doos that's an expensive troubleshoot. With 28 lights controlled across nine Flics and a single Hub, is it possible I'm pushing a device count limit?

  Hi. It is possible that there are interfering IR light sources so the hub thinks that is the signal you try to record. Try turn off your lights around and if possible record in darkness.

  Hi. The Flic hub and the Hue hub must be on the same LAN network in order to see each other. Make sure they are behind the same router.

  @kjell-svensson You cannot use the Hue hub as a Flic hub if that's what you're asking.
