@joakimsinbox what action would you like to perform?

@info-b Is it possible for you to share the URL so we can test?

@slockbower225 Could you try again? The newest firmware should now be available.

Thanks for the report. We will take a look. It seems like a bug in the hub sdk.

@mikeswift88 In what country are you located / have set the Alexa to? Could you also send a screenshot of your error message?

I don't think there is a general answer for this since every NAS would play music in its own way. Maybe you can use the Internet Request action or use our Hub SDK to perform some custom commands.

@kortenkamp Sonos is a very important feature for us. We have implemented "start sonos playlist" by the press of a Flic button. Unfortunately, the Sonos Control API that we use is quite limited and does not contain any way of interacting with 3rd party music services, including switching to a radio station, at least what I can see, so I'm not sure what we can do here.

It's correct that the Flic Hub can only be logged in to one account at a time.

You could select "from bot" to send a message from the generic "flicbot" name, instead of from a user, if that would work for you.

If you really need to send a message and have the correct username set as sender, you will need to use the Slack API directly (see https://api.slack.com/messaging/sending), which unfortunately will be much more advanced. Once you have crafted the http request needed to send a message, you can use the Internet Request action in our app to send it whenever a Flic button is pressed. You could also use our Hub SDK to do the same.

@kethlak yes the devices must be on the same network, since they communicate directly with each other without any server involved.

@kethlak maybe you could use a computer instead of a phone?

@kethlak what browser are you using?

@jeyc Google Play store changed their policies and no longer allows us to send sms messages directly. We tried to get an exception but they rejected our request.

You can build your own Android app though from Android Studio and install it directly on your phone. This can for example listen to an Intent and at that time send an sms. Then use the Send Intent action in our app to call your app to send the sms.

@flic-11 We think the bug in apple's Home app might be due to we use a bridge together with an input device. That seems to be a quite uncommon scenario they really haven't tested thoroughly. Most other Homekit products are instead controlled directly.

It was an issue at our backend. It was fixed at 13:50 UTC today.

@mrrodgers7071 I'll try to see if we can order some to the office so we can try them out. I hope they ship to Sweden.

I'm sorry if our support team doesn't answer your questions.

In any case, if you see the button wobble in Apple's Home app, then the Flic hub has successfully completed its job to deliver the event to Apple Homekit. If you have assigned an action in the Home app and it doesn't trigger whenever the Flic button is pressed (i.e. when you see it wobble in the Home app), then something is failing in Homekit's logic and you should turn to Apple's support.

I suggest you first confirm though that your homepod/iPad/Apple TV is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your iPhone, Flic hub and the device you want to control.

You can use one of our SDKs to implement Flic 2 functionality in your app: https://github.com/50ButtonsEach/flic2-documentation.

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

@mrrodgers7071 could you send a product description link?
