      It's been over two weeks since the last official reply. It would definitely be nice to see some updates on the status of this. As of now, I waited two years for a pair flic paperweights.

        I paid for my FLic Twists in Dec 2021 and I have eventually received them. There were many stories along the way about delays with getting the mechanical aspects of the manufacturing right so you would have thought that by the time they were delivered there would have been ample opportunity to get the software ready ... but apparently not. Can we at least have a timescale for when you hope to have the SDK updated?

          @Emil You really need to fix this. It can't be a big fix to include the new button presses in the SDK, everything else seem to already be in place.
          Please prioritize this. Or make the SDK open source so that we can fix it for you.

            @Emil what part of that reply answers the question?
            The question was 'How can we use it in the SDK?' and 'Is there a timeline for when we can?', at best the reply states 'We are actively working on... stay tuned'.
            Is that a 'You can't' on on being able to use it and a 'No' on having a timeline?

              @Emil ok. thank you for your reaction.

              But if the current hub fw version is 4.2.11, where is the 'full Flic Twist support' (mentioned in the blog-post)?

              Second; i can see a [changelog] button next to the Phone App version (3.10.3 on my Android) but no [changelog] button next to the Hub version.

                The Backers waited a very long time for their purchases, now the flics get delivered and there is no other event avaiblable as ''buttonSingleOrDoubleClickOrHold", did i get that right? No twist oder push twist events supported via SDK?

                I can't believe that.

                What's the timeline for supporting the whole product?

                    @Emil This is a response to the secondary questions, not the primary one about SDK availability.

                    Seeing that the twist is fully supported, how can we use it in the SDK? If we can't is there a timeline for when we can?

                      Agreed, most functions of the Twist should be supported by the Hub, as I'm using many devices that aren't supported by Flic out of the box, but I'm using them e.g. via API

                        @abboberg All our firmwarers are auto-updated. In some cases we have assigned a specific firmware to specific people on request. Please reach out to us if you want to go back to the public release track.

                        The current hub fw version is 4.2.11.

                        Usually when we update the hub firmware we also update the apps. In the apps you can see a Change log in the settings menu.

                          I have FlicHubLR firmware v4.2.11, visible in SDK and FlicApp.

                          In the recent backer-post-update (#21, 16-oct-2023) you wrote
                          "We have a new firmware released for our Hubs (including the old Flic Hub) so they now have full support for Flic Twist and its functions."

                          great !

                          But I am wondering;

                          • what is the version of this new firmware?
                          • are there any proper release-notes and documentation?
                          • is the firmware at someday auto updated or can I do anything?

                          Keep us updated and informed!
                          (this can also be in this flic-community)

                            Another +1 here.
                            Not being able to use the SDK means that the twist is just a bigger button for now.

                            I don't understand how it's being communicated that there is full hub support for the twist when there isn't SDK support.

                                Now that I received my Twists yesterday, I wanted to make use of them in Home Assistant. But alas, SDK does not support a single bit of the twisting and even in the app, I cannot use a HTTP request. Why must this be limited to the very few providers?

                                I am disappointed 😞

                                  Yes, I totally agree with you!

                                  I have firmly assumed that the way you have described it also already works where the twist is delivered.

                                  That is actually the main reason why you choose the Twist and not Hue Tap Dial Switch.

                                  Would be nice if that still comes...otherwise they would be a bit too expensive for simple switches;-) Yes I know you can configure something in the Flic app, but that's not what you want.

                                  Would be happy if someone from Flic could say something about it. Whether this is on the roadmap...?
