![]() ![]() The functionality obviously exists, you have other items in the app using it. You have had multiple years to prepare for this. The functionality that was listed when the product was showcased on Kickstarter. ![]() Yet, of course, the money came out of my bank account. I bought this based on the promised functionality and open access for development, which was not delivered. Whoever decided and approved it was a good idea to push Matter's priority ahead of a product you literally just launched, that everyone has in hand and cannot use as promised, needs to have their position re-evaluated at the company. What we do care about is the functionality we were promised of the product we bought. Eventually? Yes, as it was listed as something that would be supported in the future. No one expects, or probably even really cares about Matter support right now, considering there is basically nothing to use it with yet. Sure, it doesn't have a fancy incremental light on it, but a lot of good that was doing me with the Twist. Connected straight to my Zigbee Coordinator). The rotation reports whether it was a step, slow turn, or fast turn.īest of all, it works exactly as advertised, and I was able to use my existing hardware (doesn't require a proprietary hub, not even the hue hub. There are 3 other buttons that can be used, which report press, release, hold, hold release. Used NodeRed to translate the rotation +speed to dim %, and made 1 of the buttons be a simple light toggle. Was able to get it up and running with Zigbee2Mqtt straight away. Update: The Hue Tap Dial works great, so I bought 3 more. If it works, I will probably just toss all this flic equipment I was conned into buying. I just ordered a few of them and will be here Saturday. I thought since it was Hue, it was going to also be useless, like the twist, but upon further investigation, turns out it is a Zigbee Dial (with 4 buttons), that works with Home Assistant and Zigbee2Mqtt out of the box (as any smart home device worth anything should). I was reading about the Philips Hue Tap Dial. I have pretty much given up hope for this, considering they refuse to say anything, or give any updates since it's release. I don't have a Sonos system (and I can't afford a new one), so at the moment my Flic Twist already has a fine layer of dust on it, and unfortunately it's a major disappointment. (Spotify Connect, Bose, OSC, Chromecast/Android TV, VLC ++) is already there (!)Īnyway. The main functionality for other media players/music systems etc. So even if I was capable of it, I wouldn't even be able to hack more versatility into the thing….without using A LOT of time and effort. ![]()
