      @josef-held Hi, you can configure the Flic button as a Bluetooth keyboard with the help of the Flic app, then connect the button directly to the Go Button app.

      See https://flic.io/applications/flic-universal.

      Hi, @Emil
      I have the same issue and it is annoying not to be able to differentiate between enabled and disabled flows or to filter them. But it may not be possible to get that information from Homey.

      In addition to that I have found out that only the first 17 or so flows are listed (based on creation date) so I can not assign any of my recent flow to my flic button because I can't see them in the list 😞

      @philippe-lux-67 Hi!
      Sorry for not getting back, we did have a look at the logs but unfortunately there was nothing we could see that would spark an idea for a potential workaround. We do not have the ability to test or update old versions of our app, so I'm afraid there is not much we can do about this.

      You can with smallish effort accomplish this using Home Assistant, I don't think Flic app nor IFTTT can do this as they would have to know what your Sonos is doing when you execute the action. If it doesn't matter what was happening before the button press, then IFTTT and for example Alexa can be used for this.

      @Emil
      People who have gone Home Assistant path want to use it for their home control, not Flic app. Other apps, such as Flic app, is something they want to get rid. Home Assistant is growing fast and there is a good reason for it - controlling your smart home has become way too spread out and complicated without something like HA.

      People who have Alexa already have Matter controller there, they just want to see the buttons. People who have Google ecosystem already have a matter controller. They too just want to see the buttons. Same with Homekit. Needing anoother controller and app doesn't really work as reasoning as everyone having any kind of smart home setup already have them.

      I can understand the Matter controller path regarding the Twist - it's a pain that Matter doesn't support these kind of products properly yet. But being your own controller is, in the end, a patch for promises made before. I don't think Alexa, Google, Homekit nor Home Assistant users are looking forward to having another ecosystem around to complicate what they want to simplify. And I think lack of enthusiasm for flic's Matter release tells the same story.

      Could be wrong, maybe sales are up like crazy. But it doesn't look like that from stupid users point of view.

      @Emil The permissions I enabled were "Show on Lock screen" and "Display pop-up windows while running in the background". These are shown on a picture here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71449643/how-can-i-get-the-display-pop-up-windows-while-running-in-the-background-and

      You were correct, there's an additional permission to start on boot. It worked similar how described here https://nine-faq.9folders.com/articles/8772-how-to-manage-autostart-service-on-the-xiaomi-devices

      It seems a phone reboot helped.
      Also, https://flic.io/support turns to have self-service troubleshooting which isn't bad.

      @dainova I would use a Google Pixel with "stock" Android instead of those asian brands which often like to introduce "power saving features" which kills apps every now and then, even though they are declared to stay alive by using a Foreground Service.

      In any case, which action are you using and in what do you mean exactly with "more reliable"? Is something not working as expected, in that case, what exactly? Does the button stay connected to the phone (LED should flash green when you press it) or is it something wrong with the action you try to execute?

      Since version 2.1 of Matterbridge the dimmers should show up as 0x0101. Unfortunately I don't have the twist but for example my tuya dimmer is now shown correctly.

      @daniel-abdiu
      Glad I found this thread! My flics have been dying a slow death as I could never get the #@$%$@! battery cover open despite how easy it is on YouTube πŸ˜’ I have the Clip accessory but could not for the life of me still get the battery cover open with it. So I used the scissor method (counter-clockwise turn) and that worked, but I almost sliced open my thumb as I was going through all my flics replacing the batteries … be careful with this method! Probably why they don’t even mention it as a solution, but it’s the only solution working for me. Be careful out there! 😜 Oh … and Function over Form please, and thank you! 😬
