I have plenty of devices and possible integration points that I’d be interested in and plenty of suggestions!
- Vera Alarm Functionality - Currently integrated with GE Caddx eg virtual keypad to disarm from device
- Ability to define custom devices with rest services - eg New device > Rest API > Get/Pull/Post/ etc… > Enter URL> Map to button
- Shortcuts to launch other apps
- Support for IP Cameras (vera’s is not the greatest with MJPEG, maybe RTSP
- Intercom…
I’ll stop , lol.[/quote]
Thanks, I’ll hit you up for beta testing in the future
All good ideas, but a couple of questions:
Can you elaborate on #3? Not sure what your’re trying to do
Also, I tried the intercom thing but had issues getting the receiving phone/tablet to instantly announce because the app has to be running all the time. If you have dedicated devices running in kiosk mode, then it works, but kiosk mode brings a new set of issues. Otherwise, the best you can do is send a notification to the receiving device - not exactly intercom-like functionality. Maybe you have a better solution. Perhaps Android gives you more control over something like this, but I’m not an expert.[/quote]
#3 is very simple, just launch another app that’s installed. Not sure if that’s possible in iOS but should def. be doable in android.
Very simply this would be the go to app for everything. No having to go to the home screen, everything is organized in one place and easy to find.[/quote]
Ok I see. Yes that’s no problem, I can launch another app. I think that would make sense from the Home screen of the app. Is that what you had in mind?[/quote]
I would think it would be better as a generic item that can be placed wherever. For example, if there is an IoT item that is only in one room you may just want to have the icon for their app in that room. In an ideal would, everyone would have rest services available but unfortunately new devices seem to be as closed as ever.
