Fraz76 1 Posted March 19, 2018 Hi, my single Switches have a very slow response time. After I open property window and show serial, for some seconds response time is very good. After a lot of time return slow (from 1 to 5 seconds, sometimes 7 seconds) I have Apple TV 4K as hub in the same room of switches (4x4mt) All device are on ios11 and the response time is the same without hub. Other compeditor devices as Elgato energy modules have a response time max of 1-2 seconds. i attached a video. Are you work on a firmware update to fix this?

I.Srodka 3 Posted March 21, 2018 Hi @Fraz76! Thank you for your report and video! First, I would like to address the fact that our Single Switches operates via Bluetooh, and Elgato Energy works via WiFi, just as our FIBARO Wall Plug (HomeKit). It is visible for WiFi devices to be more responsive. As far as your video is concerned, there are many factors to consider. How far is the Apple TV from those switches, I've seen that the closer you are to a bluetooth device, the faster it responds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraz76 1 Topic Author Posted March 21, 2018 Hi @I.Srodka , thanks for your reply. -Eve energy is BLE only, exactly as Fibaro single switch. -My single switches are in the same room of ATV4K, and the room is only 4x4mt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I.Srodka 3 Posted March 21, 2018 Yes, my mistake Eve Energy is BT as well. I had Koogeek Smart Plug in mind. 41 minutes ago, Fraz76 said: -Eve energy is BLE only, exactly as Fibaro single switch. But still, to be fair, our switch is probably slightly more isolated by the walls ; ) I will forward your concerns to our engineers and they will check whether there is anything that they can fix.

Fraz76 1 Topic Author Posted March 21, 2018 I do not think it's an installation problem. The switches are in the junction boxes adjacent to the external plastic cover at a maximum 2 or 3 meters from the Apple TV. I never have connection problems, but only slow response times on the first connection / command. After opening the properties window, the connection remains active and the response times are short for a few seconds as I showed at the end of the video. thanks again for your support Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davider 1 Posted May 12, 2018 Is Fibaro Homekit using the new iOS11 BT architecture?Please login or register to see this link. With the iOS 11 architecture you can now immediately triggers automations through your home hub running tvOS 11, so you can enjoy fast switching of all of your HomeKit-enabled accessories with just a touch of your finger – there should be practically no difference in behavior when compared to an IP-based accessory. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saimen 0 Posted July 17, 2018 Huge issue for me too. Please update the firmare, Fibaro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saimen 0 Posted September 13, 2018 @I.Srodka Do you have any plans on a firmware update to speed up the single switches? I have another product that was just as laggy but after a firmware update it now has almost zero latency. I have installed 5 Homekit Single Switches amd the response time is just not very good, even if the ATV is right next to the switch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chaicka 180 Posted September 26, 2018 There's an iOS app named 'HomeScan' which I find it useful as it allows understanding of the BLE signal strength and a simple 'assessment' whether the signal strength is excellent, good, fair, weak, bad, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
