Unfortunately the Zipato RGBW Bulb is not supported fully in the Fibaro Android and iOS Apps right now. You cannot control them completely. Only via the web interface, where you'll get full functionality. But this is not practical. I know that some of you are using a virtual device to control the Zipato RGBW Bulb. Could you share the code. I know that his is a known issue for Fibaro and might be fixed in the future. But for the time being a virtual device would be good work-around.

. It's a good (und much cheaper) alternative to Sonos. Is there a way to control it via a virtual device like the Fibaro Sonos Plug-in?

ImperiHome works with the Zipato bulb.

I miss in Fibaro few things:

1) Exporting backups from HCL. It could be linked to accoount on home.fibaro.com, so it could be in cloud and HCL owner can download this backup, if HCL stops working. It's annoying and time-consuming to do whole project once again.

 

2) To get global variable to virtual device label. I have solution for take global variable, that counting pulses. Our customer want that for measurement of water flow. So there is FGUBS for that (there is wire from water meter). I have with this accuracy 0,5 liters. But this is possible only for HC2, becouse LUA.

Fibaro, there are a lot of good feature suggestions on this thread despite you stating several times that it should pertain only to scene and VD ideas. This is a reflection of the fact that your users have a tonne of great ideas that they want to share. Can you please either endorse websites like

 or create your own on-going mechanism for identifying and voting for new features?

 

I have a lot of features I would like to request, but obviously this thread isn't the correct forum for it.
