@Emil thanks! This would make flic buttons so much more useful for me - we bought a bunch on Black Friday but most are sitting idle due to this limitation. Looking forward to its release!!

@Emil The posts are a bit confusing. Am I to take it that you can’t program Twist to control Alexa volume at all? I can’t seem to have it respond to the twist motion. I can use the button to pause and play next track though.
Thank you.

Hey @flicflop!

I nearly have a workaround for getting the twist events on the hub. Maybe you have some thoughts on it https://community.flic.io/topic/18405/flic-twist-feature-request-advanced-position-triggers-actions

Any comments about my feedback from the flic team?

@finn probably some bug or something in Homepod then. The mapping between button click type and what lights should be controlled is fully contained within the homepod/Apple TV. The flic hub only delivers the click events.

@gregorysinclair I put a reply addressing that error message in the other thread.

From what I can tell with my testing, it will still work, you just have to get creative with your button creation and mapping.

@Emil I use the flic app on Android connected through a Flic Hub

@Barlium Ahhhh dang. Stupid mistake on my part but I'll leave this post up in case anyone else is a dummy like me.

I started a manual routine, but didn't see that there's a save button as it was hidden under my phone's keyboard. Flic wasn't finding my scenes because I edited them but never saved them. I didn't see the obvious solution because I was blinded by both my keyboard and my confusion over the nomenclature.

Don't be like me.

@jhamers Sonos's official API is unfortunately quite limited. See https://docs.sonos.com/reference/about-control-api for what features it supports. Please reach out to Sonos and suggest that they should offer more features to third party apps.

@reluctantflux

Anyway, really curious on how people have been creative to actually utilize the twist feature, and how they did it.

Unfortunately, they haven't.

I as well as many here, are HomeAssistant users looking to do similar things, but they have not updated the SDK to support the twist, and it has been multiple months since it's release. There is still no way to use the twist functionality outside of the.. what, 2-3? integrations that they have listed in the app.

They seem to refuse to update the SDK with this functionality, even though they had years to get the software ready for the release of this device. You try and bring it up here, everything just goes silent. No one will give an update, timeline, anything. Absolutely terrible customer service and product support.

We all just have a bunch of fancy paper weights at this point.

@scott-0 if you use "smart dimming" rather than "advanced dimming", then the volume should react to external changes and the issue you describe should not happen.

@rbjohnston isn't https://flic.io/start sufficient?

One of my two flic twists was missing the adhesive.

I am using command strips. So far so good. I've one in place for a couple of weeks. I am using the command strip that is similar to velcro.
