Controlling Virtual Device from Mobile App


RohitNz

Question

I am writing a mobile app where I want to change the value of a virtual device label from it.

 

Do I really have to grab the json, modify and send it back ?  Is there no way to run the equivalent of setproperty ?

 

 

Background.  My wife keeps losing her phone several times a day.  So I have installed three beacons (for testing), I have another 20 to install.  My app can now figure out which room the phone is in.  All I have to do is to have a virtual device with a label for each member of the family.  The app will update the location and we will know where the phone was last seen.
