@Emil After 4.2.5 update for the hub the brightness control works again. Thanks for the quick solution.

@psanner The combination we support right now for HomeKit is the Flic Hub LR together with either Flic 1 or Flic 2.

@Emil I managed to check the battery and it was still at 85%+

I have disconnected and reconnected from the system and hopefully that will resolve it.

@alces as you can see on https://superuser.com/questions/1581627/where-is-my-lan-hostname-stored, hostnames on the LAN is not really a "basic feature of networking" since there are like four different "standards" for that. Currently, the only thing you should rely on is that you use a FQDN that the DNS resolver the DHCP server gives the hub will resolve.

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

@emil I installed the Home+ 5 app. When I go through bridges and then display accessories, it works fine with the flic buttons. I think there are some bugs in the iOS 15.3 button/switch portions of the home app.

If you don't configure WiFi on the hub, it should not emit any WiFi signals as far as I know... Do you see something different?

Hi. Flic's responsibility stops when reaching IFTTT's servers, so if you have any issues with Yeelight through IFTTT, you'd better take that up with IFTTT or Yeelight.

Hi,

I had this requirement and solved it by linking Zapier (Free account) (5 Zap limit I believe so if you need more perhaps not the right email option) and then using a service called Firetext (UK based) to deliver the text messages.

And yes it works 👍 .

You will need to pay for credits (the first 25 are free) £20 for 500 so depending on what you want this combination, as a way of using a flic button as an alert service, it works well.

However!! Zapier is not instant so if anyone knows of a service that will email instantly I would be interested (I will keep looking).

The reason I mention the delay is for those who are looking for a Panic Button Solution as the above combination can take between 30 seconds and a few (less than 5) minutes to deliver the text, the delay is with the Zapier free account, unfortunately. 😞

But if you need an alert as an email/text this workaround/combination is by far the simplest/cheapest I have found and it works :).

Hope that's helpful for someone.

regards
Paul.

Hi guys.

In the same situation here. Latest firmware for the Hue hub (version 2). On the same network and unfortunately nothing found.

I'm running the android app. With a hub.

Is there a way I can debug this at all?

@jonasnordstrom Hi! This is fixed in the new beta version 5.5.3!

Was thinking of getting a hub but not interested if it does not work. I have the same issue and any other chrome cast function just does not work. I have 2 phones and one works perfectly fine when the other one doesn't so it just seems to be a software issue or it could be not having a certain permission on my phone. But I have allowed everything I can think of and there should be more information on what permissions I need to enable. The fact that this is a problem and nobody has been able to get a fix for months makes me wonder if this will ever get fixed.

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.

@marook Which kind of Sonos device do you have? The ones we test with at the office are Sonos Play: 1.

Bump! The Inability of the LR Hub to see Chromecast Audio groups on my LAN means my flics are pretty useless for controlling audio. Is there a technical reason that this is not the case?

@theo I think you need to add the http:// prefix to the url.
