@bulk Yes we have made the submission.

We are slowly rolling this out in different regions. Stay tuned.

@giannis-yt I would guess at the moment the Raspberry Pi Zero Wireless is one of the cheapest options.

@hello_marley the ball is moving according to plan. Please stay tuned

@abboberg All our firmwarers are auto-updated. In some cases we have assigned a specific firmware to specific people on request. Please reach out to us if you want to go back to the public release track.

The current hub fw version is 4.2.11.

Usually when we update the hub firmware we also update the apps. In the apps you can see a Change log in the settings menu.

@stevehooper yeah we should really try to add a direct Home Assistant integration from the Flic hub someday, since it is so popular...

In the meantime, can you use the Internet Request action in our app to send a simple http request to your device running Home Assistant maybe?

Hi. This forum is meant to be a community forum rather than a support forum. For support you should send an email to support@shortcutlabs.com. For your Samsung phone, you could try reboot it in case Bluetooth has hung or similar.

What you should do is to first call bind, followed by setBroadcast(true) on the socket. Then you can send messages using send.
FYI, the API is made to be compatible with Node.js API https://nodejs.org/api/dgram.html.

Hi. You need to manually construct the Authorization header. See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication.

@tony Android's Bluetooth team messed up the update to Android 9. The cached GATT db structure is erased for bonded devices after the update, so the API gives an empty list of GATT services, making it impossible to communicate with the GATT characteristics. The only way to make it work again seems to be to unbond the Bluetooth device from the system and then bond again.

@stephen_mallett Seems like a good idea. Do you know if it's cloud based or LAN based?

Right now the only method to control Smartthings is by triggering a "scene". So you can e.g. use Advanced Dimming with Flic Twist to trigger a scene at every step. Then you need to map each scene in Smartthings to dim your light at the specific level.

@stephen_mallett said in smarthings support for twist:

The integration must be possible because when I connect my Google home hub to smartthings it shows me the current dim value with interface to slide the value up and down.

Do you mean that you can slide the value in the Google home app or the Smartthings app?

@flic-16 Can you try this base64 encode method instead:

function base64Encode(str) {
    return Duktape.enc('base64', str);
}

@flic-16 You say that you use Basic Authentication, but I don't see where you are setting the Authorization header to "Basic " followed by the base64 encoding of username:password. Instead you are setting some custom x-api-key/x-secret-key headers. Which authentication method should you actually use?

@davidgenge Should be activated now, so please try again. Sorry for the inconvenience.

@jezgdavies We are going to increase the number of steps to 12 instead of 4 (that should hopefully be enough). The ideal would of course be if Alexa supported something like an "analog" value, but for now they only support setups of "when event X happens, trigger routine Y".

You can set up multiple hubs if you want. There is nothing that stops you from doing so. You can pair the same button to multiple hubs. The button will simply connect to the first hub that it can reach when pressed.

@phiche the intention is that Matter would be the savior here, but the adoption of that protocol as well as the release of the Matter specification 1.0 have unfortunately been heavily delayed. Two years ago, we assumed most devices should have implemented Matter at the end of 2023.

It seems that Feit have in their plans to support Matter according to https://www.theverge.com/2022/8/5/23292476/lifx-smart-lighting-feit-electric-new-products. When they are done (and we too), the Twist should be able to control their lights.

Homekit for Flic Twist is unfortunately currently not an option for us to implement, since Homekit does not support rotational devices as input devices.

@dustingtorres Yes! It is one of the priorities we have currently.

@th-zuberer For the smoothest experience we suggest to use our LAN integrations which will deliver lowest latency such as Sonos.

You can however use Alexa as well using the Advanced Dimming or Scene Blender feature. See

. In this case, an Alexa routine will be triggered once the twist is moved to a certain position.

We are working on making the positions more dense.
