      Have Flic buttons been affected by the AWS outage?

      @alexgooz92fs Nice to hear that!

      It seems the issue doesn't affect all users. I my self can for example use the Alexa actions I set up previously, before their outage, successfully today without the need to re-enable the skill or re-setup anything.

      Note that the http request containing the button press event that is sent to Alexa's server when a Flic button is pressed, sent from us, looks the same both before and after their outage, so if it suddenly doesn't work after their outage, it seems at least to me something has been broken on their end for you it doesn't work for. However, if you added an additional Alexa action during the time they had an outage, that action might not have been synced correctly so in that case you might need to remove the Alexa action and add it back in the Flic app.

      @gordon-0 As the "Internet Request" action in the app is designed, it unfortunately does not contain any type of cryptographic signature that you can verify to make sure the request (when received) itself actually originated from the press of the button. The only thing you can do is to provide credentials or something in the headers of the Internet Request, but those you have to design and implement yourself.

      @Emil Bummer. Maybe one for the sprint list?? 🙂 Thanks for the quick reply.

      I still have a conundrum in my hub I'm trying to resolve. It's telling me I can't remove the dead device since it's not online. Catch-22!

      @Emil That's a shame they don't provide the "static" Groups in their API. Yes, checkboxes versus radio buttons would be a game changer. Thanks. Mike

      @garryjoss @andy-henderson Depending on when you purchased your Flics we did have an adhesive a while which became quite soft over time which made it a bit more difficult to open the battery hatch.

      All Flic adhesives have always been washable, so you can carefully clean them with water to freshen up the adhesion. You can rub them with water and maybe even some dishsoap and let it air dry. Don't hold it under water as water may enter and damage the electronics.

      Other alternatives are as Andy mentioned, you could use a scissor if you're careful.

      We have since changed the adhesive, the latest version is much better than the previous. The adhesives are available separately on our shop.

      Feel free to contact our support and we're happy to help you further if none of the above works!

      @tomtec Flic uses Bluetooth Low Energy. BLE uses frequency hopping and may thus jump between different channels in the whole allocated spectrum.

      Hi and thanks for your report. We must have missed this when we upgraded the UI of our app. A new app version with a fix for this is now sent in to review to Google Play (4.0.11). Hopefully it is released within 24 hours.

      @petter-landing-0r the red LED blinking typically indicates low battery. Did you try a fresh one?

      Hi,

      One of the most recently added providers is the Matter provider. Matter is a common protocol that many devices now implement so that every manufacturer doesn't have to provide their own proprietary protocol.

      Matter is supported by e.g. Govee and Shelly.
