Flic 2 not connecting

[mike.hinson]

Hi, my existing flic button connects ok, but my 3 new flic 2 buttons don't connect to my bluetooth.

what are the best troubleshooting steps on a Mac please.

I have an old Mac so I am using a dongle to support bluetooth 4 as follows:

perhaps there is a better bluetooth dongle I could use that won't be too expensive? - I am in the UK.

Hi, can you confirm that the new Mac App has been releases that does support the Flic2 button?
I have just received a Flic button which I can connect to my iPhone but doesn't connect to the Mac application (I am running Flic version 2.04)
thanks!

@Emil Thanks, that is not so long to wait. Great

@mike-hinson we will release it in around two weeks. The mac app does not support flic hub. The Flic hub is standalone and can only be configured through iOS and Android.

@Emil Thanks for letting me know.
Can we have a date for Mac support on Flic 2 please?
Lack of Mac support wasn't obvious when I supported your project.
I feel let down.
Could I buy a hub and connect it to my Mac and use the Mac App in that way?

@mike-hinson Hi. The mac app will in the near future support Flic 2 buttons. The current version only supports Flic 1 buttons.
