Little change = huge benefit


HomeSystem.sk

I have little idea. We had one big instalation last week and I got really annoyed by adding devices, having to open them one by one just to change the name and room. Basicaly that is all you need to do with most devices after you add them (then change the switch type,... but that is not with every device, so thats ok).

I love the new window that apears after adding new device and I would like to ask, if it would be possible to make some changes in it.

 

Basically - you add new device and Fibaro asks what will it control (that is great as people did not understand that this has affect for mobile app).

Now, what if that window gives you the oportunity to change the name of the devices and the room it belongs to? That would just be amazing. I know it would make the window bigger (multisensors...) but it would just make instalations so much easier. 

 

For example, after adding wall plug it would have 3 windows - Name, room, controlled device.

For motion sensor - room, name for each sensor.

+1 from me and maybe one improvement. I don't know if @HomeSystem.sk mentioned it. I hate redirection if i'm making a big project from page for add or remove devices to device page.

 

Or Fibaro can make double-click option on name of device to rename it. Then simply drag and drop to the room.

 

Use case:

User adding may devices and he is under pressure. What he can do is add device -> then pop up will appear and he name it, set room and controlled device. Then he stays on the page (no redirection to device, like after adding e.g. Switch 2) and he do that for rest of devices until he is finished.
