    • RE: Using Flic for disabled and elderly people

      Well, I dunno if you're still watching this space, but...

      I have two Flics deployed for my semi-disabled wife. One is configured to page me from the bathroom, it's stuck on the wall next to the bathtub. The other is configured to page me from wherever she is, and it is clipped to her purse strap. Although she's not totally debilitated, I do worry about her slipping in the bathtub/shower. The one that's clipped to her purse, is mainly for her peace of mind.

      In either case, it's easy to see why it's important that these things work with something approaching 100% reliability. So far, that's not been the case. So keep improving!

    • Simulating button pushes

      Hi, I have old-style Flics. When I first got them, the app had a way to simulate button pushes/button holds - I think you simply pushed the virtual button on the screen. That is no longer the case, pushing the virtual buttons brings up a Delete Flic? dialog.

      I would like to know what the new way of simulating button presses for testing purposes - or has this functionality been completely eliminated for some inane reason?

    • RE: Alexa and IFTTT

      I think it has something to do with the word "Trigger."

    • Return/Exchange?

      Has anyone had to deal with a warranty situation? I have a Flic that has lost all functionality, I need to return it for an exchange under warranty, but I cannot seem to get an answer from customer service as to how to start the process. Any suggestions?

    • Washable Sticky? Not really...

      I have a Flic that I use in my car. I live in Arizona, so it gets real hot in there, and I guess the sticky stuff doesn't tolerate it too well. I have tried washing it, but that doesn't seem to bring back the old, strong stick-ability. Does anyone have any helpful hints that might make it really sticky again?

    • Another question...what is a task?

      I am guessing that a "task" is a single instruction or defined action that you can save? And perhaps re-load into another button? Nice convenience, but nowhere can I find it documented. That seems to be true of many features. I used to write documentation for a living, if you guys need a professional doc writer/editor to flesh out your literature, I'm available!

    • RE: Many questions...like, what is "standby"?

      OK, no, I can't send a pic, but upon closer inspection, it looks as if the X is over a graphic representation of a Flic. This is consistent with your explanation. But...for example right now my Green Flic is showing as Standby, when it's sitting right here. I know that when I put distance between my Flic and my Smartphone, they disconnect, but do they not automatically reconnect when in the vicinity?
