@Emil Hi Emil, Is true HiD functionality now implemented?

Re: Flic Universal HID keyboard function.

I bought my Flic 2 buttons and they were advertised as having HID keyboard functionality just like a keyboard, but they don't.
I reached out a few years ago and was told that the firmware allowed this but it was not yet enabled.
The issue is that on a keyboard if I press and hold the A key it repeats the letter A. Which in FPS gaming might be strafe left.
The Flic 2 button only presses once and to repeat you are required to press it again. This is not true HID keyboard functionality.
What is the situation with this? Is there a firmware update that enables this or is the case that 3 years on this still hasn't been enabled?

@Emil is there any news on this functionality?

@Emil Hi Emil, thanks for the reply. To be honest I think it should simply mimic the keyboard when the universal keyboard is selected.

So the user would click On Hold for the button option, then select Keyboard under Universal, and under this setting, it repeats on hold like a keyboard, (repeating the keypress until released.
I really like the way the Universal app works currently. It's very self-explanatory and super easy to set up. This function is also massively for the Discord app, (push to talk where you hold the button to talk and it mutes the mic once release. I genuinely think if you did the above and unlocked it the sale would rocket in the gaming world.

It's not possible yet as a HID keyboard will repeat if a key is. held down. Flic 2 has this in built-in but it's not enabled.

@Emil another use would be Push to Talk in Discord. You need to hold the button

@Emil hi, is this something that can be enabled?

@Emil there are actually lots of gaming capabilities with this but it needs this function to be available. Indoor cycling is just one use case but there are 100s of thousands of indoor cyclists that would be interested.

@Emil I want to use it to steer a game with left and right arrows. Specifically within the genre of esports cycling games. I want to attach a button to the left and right handlebars. Other users have come up with wired options but flic two should be able to do this much better.
Is there a way I can get it to work?

When I set up my flic buttons to be a keyboard key via Flic universal. it works to press that key once, but if you hold the button like a keyboard it does not repeat the keypress. Is there any way to set this up? It's really frustrating.

Long press repeats a pre-programmed amount of times but that no good. I need to press and hold and have the key repeat.

Fingers crossed someone knows how to get this working.
