IPhone app does not save the order of devices


Question

Posted

Hello. This problem was discussed before - more than a year ago:

Please login or register to see this link.

I registered the bug and it was confirmed 3 months ago:

Any plans to fix it finally? I see the bug is still in place and it is very inconvinient. I move the devices as I want. But as soon as I close the application (turn off the phone or just close it in a taskbar), the order is lost!

It is really annoying! I have a fibaro socket controlling light load. But it is located on 4th page of my room! No chance to move (and save!) it on 1st page of the room.

Please prioritize this bug.

From what I know, android doesn't have the function of moving the icons, so perhaps it wasn't meant to be able to change the position of the devices in the iphone application. perhaps you can put your important fibaro socket into another room which you can access straight.

    Android application was developed later than iOS-app. So I guess that it the reason why android can have less functionality.

    I don't think, it wasn't meant to move devices. Application allows you to do that - it is an active drag and drop functionality, so you press on device > move it to another place > unpress. And it works just fine in the same session (unless you will close the app). The ticket issue is "confirmed" so I understand it as Fibaro confirmed there is a bug.

    Since the functionality is active, I expect it to work.

    I must also say that in my case, the IPhone app is a crap unless this bug will be fixed. Moving devices to another room is an inconvinient workaround. And is not always an option - f.ex. if you use heating schedule for the thermostat in the room.

    Categorization in the app (lights, climate, virt device) is also not perfect. I have non-zwave light devices configured as virual devices in HC2. I want to have them in lights, but not in "virtual device". They are virtual devices from HC2 perspective, but not from user perspective. I wrote about that here:

    To summarize, currently I am not satisfied with both room tab (I cannot reorder the devices), and categories tab (no chance to use categories for non-zwave devices)
