I've been waiting for the time when I can use shortcuts on my phone to trigger the IR blaster. For the three years I've had the device it's only ever been able to trigger the IR blaster from the flic buttons.

It's on firmware 2.0.19

I don't think this is possible still, right? I held out hope but don't think it's happening.

Has anyone successfully hacked the IR blaster to do this? I just want to be able to control my tv with HomeKit or shortcuts at the least. I don't really want to have to buy another hub.

Yep. I wish this were possible.

Any news on this?

My air conditioner came with a broken remote so I can't get the hub to record the trigger. Is there any way of uploading the codes to the hub? I expect I can find them online. This would mean I didn't have to purchase a second remote. Either that or another IR blaster that I can configure?
