  Is it possible to get a feature build into your flic app that HUE lamps fading-in or fading-out after a button press? Would be great if the fading time could be adjusted. My goal would be for example, pressing the flic dial button and the HUE lights fading out slowley and with an IR command the projector and Bluray Player gets switched on. Such a feature for fading would be great. Can it be done? Thanks.

  Maybe we need to create a kickstarter that pays for an extra “dedicated” staff member whose sole purpose is to solve this. I would pay money for that, if it meant i finally get to turn a massive button into something more. i am in no way a programmer, but i’m assuming that when a product is developed, wouldn’t its known features be made available in the sdk? especially when the “twist” feature is available for
  philips hue to utilise and some other companies. So clearly there is a way to access the “twist” feature.

  I understand that matter would change the focus of the company, maybe even cause a complete redesign of the ecosystem. The main reason i supported the twist was because how rock solid the flic’s are. I don’t think i have come across another smart home product that just works like the flics do.

  There is so much potential in opening up a product fully to the community that supports it financially. By doing so will literally make you more money. I know if i had the ability to use the twist, even at a basic level,
  (like to know if its turned left or right) i would be happy as.. i dont want the world, i just want to finally use the twist to its full potential.

  At the moment the twist is an expensive over sized car with no steering wheel that you can’t drive. Oh, wait, i can turn the headlights on and off, but go nowhere…. money well spent.

  i am sorry for sounding a tad passive aggressive to flic staff, but i’m just frustrated. There is clearly something more going on in the background that’s not being said.

  I got fed up with the way that Apple and the BBC refuse to play nice. I want to stream BBC radio stations through my HomePod. So I set up a flic to auto stream the radio from my mac to the HomePod. The steps are:

  Open the BBC radio station URL in Music (e.g. itls://as-hls-ww-live.akamaized.net/pool_904/live/ww/bbc_radio_two/bbc_radio_two.isml/bbc_radio_two-audio=320000.m3u8) and add it to a playlist (e.g. "BBC Radio 2") Create a folder within plugins called PlayRadio2. Within that folder create an AppleScript called Radio2.scpt tell application "Music" play playlist "BBC Radio 2" set airPlayDevices to (get name of AirPlay devices) --returns a list of names set current AirPlay devices to AirPlay device (item 2 of airPlayDevices) --sets device to item 2 of list end tell Also create a config.json file containing { "pluginName": "Radio2", "pluginDescription": "Starts Playing Radio 2 and streams to HomePod Mini", "protocolVersion": 1, "actions": [ { "actionName": "PlayRadio2", "fileName": "Radio2.scpt" } ] } Reload plugins and off you go...

  Hello,

  Same problem here with the "Get contents of URL" action, works when tested via the Home app but not with the actual flic button. Was working fine before 18.2.
