Windows Phone app Beta

[stevenvd 51]

I build a windows phone app with at the moment only the basic functionality:

• 
  Run scenes.
  Turn Lights On-Off and Dimm.
  Turn devices On-Off.
  Wattage OF Device and Lights.
  Speech for Lili (no accuray test, complete sentence has to be correct).
  

Also added location tracking, which is send to the HC and can calculate distance in Scene (at the moment can only update every 30 minutes).

Need to put Ip in the settings to get connect to HC.

NOTE: Still some bugs and not finished, but I like to share it!

That the App needs the IP address of your Home Center as it cannot connect through home.fibaro.com

Thanks Steven looking forward to it.

Due to account mismatch on my Phone it is not possible for me to download the beta app.

[stevenvd 51]

It's not really windows phone style but Arming / Disarming of Alarm panel with pincode coming.

Further a new Dashboard as promised. Not really happy with it yet but a little better than before I think. Any suggetions are welcome.

Looking really good...any news on the beta...my beta seems to have expired...?

[stevenvd 51]

It is a little strange, people are telling me the beta has expired but Me as the developer has not even received a message from the windows phone developer thing.

I just submitted the App as a Public release.

Could be up to 5 days... Unless if it does not succeed the Test I have to submit it again

Hi Steven,

Can you make also a new beta version, so wan can use it today of tomorrow again? The new beta’s don't expire anymore! So you can make a stable release version for normal use and a beta version with new thinks for testing en advanced users. If you give the beta version a different name, you can install them both on the same devices!

[stevenvd 51]

It's available in the store! Just search for Fibaro and you will find it

Many thanks...all updated.

There is a issue around the system information which does not appear if the user is NOT admin. (see screenshot). Am I a permission missing in HC2?

Already fixed it.

When you login with admin you get all the data and the weather through ip/api/devices.

but for non admin users the Weather is not present there. so have to get it though api/weahter.

Already implemented it.

Thanks for the public app, great!

Activating lili does crash the app, Lili just asks "what can I do to you" and after that the app crashes, I tried it several times.

[darren-mc 11]

Thanks for the quick fix...will look for the update.

[rantta 2]

Minutes are presented with one number instead of two, so the clock was 12:7 instead of 12:07.

[darren-mc 11]

Hi there... when you set the alarm....

Type in your code... the **** digits disappear right before you press enter and it takes a couple of tries to get the alarm set... can you take a quick look.

Thanks

Darren

I still have to build in some feedback

But have to get the server response. Then look for the longest time of the devices to arm your house.

But answer to your question. When you have entered 4 digits it will actually press enter for you. Sorry for the lack of good visual feedback

[darren-mc 11]

Ahh...right..auto press..nice.

Some of my motion sensors like the office and living room are set to be 20 mins to stop the lights going out whilst the family are sitting after the initial trigger of motion.

Will this cause a real issue when setting the alarm then?

[rantta 2]

It would be nice, if the app would only show those rooms that have some devices to control, or the user has access to them.

If I give own user account for wife / kids, I would like to give them ability to have clear user interface with no empty rooms. If I hide all the controllers from the room, they will see the empty room, but they have no use for that room. It would be even helpful, if user could hide selected rooms from the app itself.

Also if possible, changing the room order the app would be nice feature.

[darren-mc 11]

Yes I like the idea of clearing down the interface.

Any news on an update coming through?

[HA tester 1]

I can only connect through my own wifi.

*edit

What to do with the 3 textblocks in "settings" Location?

[darren-mc 11]

That sounds like you either don't have the port forwarding (port 80) correctly setup or you have not got the hostname setup correctly.

[ Added: 2014-02-17, 15:10 ]

I don't actually know what 3 textblocks in "settings" Location really do. I was hoping they might be used in the future to report location but I think that's just wishful thinking.
