Temperature Tile should show decimals

johnny2678 7 years ago in Things & Capabilities updated by Alex (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 6 years ago 13

This tile used to show the decimal value reported in smarthings (78.1 currently).  Now it is rounded to a whole number.  How can I get the decimals back?

I'm just wondering what's the practical significance of temperature precision to fraction of a degree?


Does anyone use sensors that are accurate to 1 degree?

There's no preference to control the display of decimals.

I would like to know this also.

I'd prefer to have it show decimal values.

Previously At showed decimals for certain sensors. My preference was to round the numbers. However from this discussion  Round off temperature decimals,  I  certainly understand the importance when using Celsius.


Maybe a user-selectable option if you decide to implement decimals.

Yes, I use one in my hot tub where I like to know the exact amount. I would actually like the opposite where it shows the decimal points for the current power wattage used. This number fluctuates a lot and is rather large so decimals points are rather useless. So an option to show decimal points per tile would be preferred.

Seems to be a change in behaviour since the latest version, where Celcius temperatures are rounded to the nearest whole number. Needs at least 1 decimal place to be useful. Other threads previously indicated it was down to available space, but mine are still rounded when I use 2 wide x 1 high. Used to be fine with 2 decimal places in previous version.

voted. 1 degree makes a too big difference in Celsius to not have 1 decimal. Thank you

Working like a charm. Thanks
