    • RE: Status of Apple HomeKit Support

      @hey-klodg In exactly what way should we improve our website? I think we mention it pretty clearly on https://flic.io/homekit (multiple times) that you need an Apple Home hub (apple tv, ipad, homepod etc.) to make Homekit work with Flic Hub LR.

      About "setup parameters for the network", we don't have that much information since Apple has not told us anything about this. To us it's pretty much just magic how Apple talks internally between its own devices (for example iPhone to Apple TV). The only thing we know is that the Flic hub and the Apple TV must be on the same network, obviously. In your case, did you have the setup that your iPhone was on the same network as the Flic hub, but the Apple TV was on a separate network? Or was it that your 3rd party devices (lights or whatever that you wanted to control from Homekit) were on a separate network?

      About Wemo, please let us know exactly which Wemo devices you have so we can investigate.

    • RE: Apple HomeKit failed to create bridge

      @nospam then you probably don't have the latest iOS Flic app.

      @hey-klodg what do you mean? The Hub LR now supports HomeKit.

    • RE: How do I do I send an sms text message?

      @Swedishflicker that's when the Flic is connected to the phone - not to the hub.

    • RE: How do I do I send an sms text message?

      We don't provide such a service. But you can probably use IFTTT or Microsoft Flow via the Hub to send an sms.

    • RE: Flic for pi3..

      @bashar_8383 If you get "Client EOF" in the flicd log, it simply means the client connecting to flicd has gracefully exited. I suggest you to ask the people working on home assistant for this kind of issue.

    • RE: Apple HomeKit failed to create bridge

      If there is no pop-up in the flic app when you slide "add to homekit" to on, it means the homekit pairing protocol has been successful, from the flic hub's point of view. If Apple's homekit view in the phone hangs and it, from its point of view therefore fails to pair, the flic hub will then not be registered as paired. Now, according to the Homekit specification, the only allowed way for an accessory to accept a new pairing when already paired, is by factory resetting the accessory. To do that on the flic hub, simply hold the pin hole for exactly a time between 10-15 seconds. If successful, the LED will blink shortly and the device will reboot. You'll have to reconfigure it, but once complete, you can try again to add to homekit.

    • RE: Simulating button pushes

      @jimspeiser you can go in to the view where you select actions for a button, then press the three dots to the right of an action and press "Execute".

    • RE: Flic Homekit notifications to ios device

      This is a feature of the Home app and not of Flic. Apple probably thinks it's useful for motion sensors to send iOS notifications, but not for physical buttons I guess. There's nothing we can do about that.

      Hi. With the latest flic app, you will see the universal actions in the action list.

    • RE: Extend the IR blaster cable?

      Extending the IR cable is not something we have tried, but if you want to try it out, use a 2.5 mm cable.

    • RE: Uk sms charge

      @bastindavid Google Play no longer lets us use the built in sms feature, using your own sim card since they are afraid that the app might send sms messages without the user's consent. Therefore we use a cloud service for sending sms messages currently.

      If your alarm sends a response to the sending number I suggest you to turn this off.

    • RE: Uk sms charge

      @bastindavid and what app version number is that? You can see it under Settings in the Flic app. And exactly what is the name of the action in the Flic app you have set up to send sms?

    • RE: Uk sms charge

      @bastindavid this seems strange. Which app version do you use? And exactly which flic action are you using?

    • RE: FLICHUB making 500+ DHCP requests a day

      @yea in that case your router's malware detection is obviously wrong since we don't run malware on the hub.

      We run the dhcpcd software on the hub as dhcp client if you wonder, which is pretty standard.

      For SmartLife, you can use IFTTT to control it from Flic.

      Let me know if you have some more interesting info for this issue, so it can be solved.

    • RE: IR Blaster with Apple HomeKit

      Hi. The intention with the Homekit integration is to be able to trigger Homekit actions using a Flic button. If there is a lot demand for this we might consider this in the future.
