Just tested now in the app and both the LIFX Cloud action and LIFX Local Network action work fine. Maybe a temporary issue?

To give an idea of the guitar FX box concept:

I made some progress on this issue. I deleted the single press action of the flic button from the HomeKit home app. Then I single pressed the flic button. The "non-existent" HomeKit single press action was triggered and the device was toggled from off to on.

This confirmed my suspicion that the action was running twice. It appears that the HomeKit hub was running both the deleted action and the configured action.

found the answer:

Will Flic work when the Flic app is running in the background or when the app is closed?
Your Flic works together with the Flic app like this:

Flic app is running and is in the foreground: All Flic actions can be triggered.
Flic app is running in the background and the device is unlocked: All Flic actions can be triggered. On iOS, some actions may require you to tap a notification first.
Flic app is running in the background and the device is locked: The huge majority of Flic actions can be triggered. Some actions can be limited by the platform or by the operating system. On iOS, some actions may require you to tap a notification first.
Flic app is closed (you have manually closed the app):
For iOS, Flic actions cannot be triggered.
For Andriod, The huge majority of Flic actions can be triggered. Some actions can be limited by the platform or by the operating system.

You can now control the IR using our Hub SDK. See the documentation at https://hubsdk.flic.io/static/documentation/#30_ir_module. You can set up a tcp server using the hub sdk and when some command is received, trigger the IR.

We have at the moment no plans to abandon Flic Hub LR after the introduction of the Flic hub mini, since the Hub LR has more features.

@oskar thanks that helps. I didn’t realise it had to be connected to the phone. I’m connected to the hub as you assume. Thanks!

Mr Oskar ...I am back with same problem. None of my Flics are working.

My Flics are not responding inspite of me doing "disable" and "enable" the flic skill on Alexa app., as you had instructed last time.

Click, 2 Clicks and Click-hold are not working on any of my Flics. My internet is Great. Hub is On. Hope you have to do needful at your server end.

Help/Advise me please ..Vijaykumar

@Emil So nobody can remove them from the Alexa Device list?

This seems to be a quite known bug in Homekit. If you see the Flic wobble inside the Home app, then we have successfully delivered the event to Homekit and there is not anything more we can do at that point. If the action at this point fails to execute inside Homekit, I suggest you to go to Apple's support and tell them about this issue.

@Emil I found the error, and I'm not sure if I will admit it... But I had an old RPI running that I tested some flic buttons on some years ago (first release). Maybe I should clean up what I have running on my network...

Usually you assign the actions directly under the specific button. If you want to use Tasks, you can add a Task as an action under a button.
