I am not present??

I use Life360 from my mobile phone as a presence in my automations.

But now I'm constantly not present in ActionTiles.

My wife's phone is working as normal.

In the Smarthings app, my mobile is listed as connected just like my wife's.

The function has worked flawlessly until Monday when I was suddenly not present.

Fully lock down the panel on Kindle Fire

Michael Beatty 2 years ago in Security updated by David B. 2 years ago 2

I've got the ActionTiles app installed on a Kindle Fire.  I'm looking around in the app at the settings and I'm wondering if there is a way to truly lock down the tablet so that nothing other than the panels can be used without some kind of admin access?

Lutron Ceiling Fan Support

Jeremy Angel 2 years ago in Things & Capabilities updated by Alex (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 2 years ago 3

I have several Lutron Caseta ceiling fan switches in my system and I can add them to my panels but there doesn't seem to be any way to set the speed on the fan.  They show up as a switch and I'm able to either turn them on (which sets them to high speed) or turn them off.  I can set differrent speeds in the ST App but not in AT.  Is there a way to add this feature in the future?

Hubitat - actiontiles stuck on INIT after working fine for many weeks - Initializing SmartApp Version: 6.10+002-Prod

Jay Martin 2 years ago updated by Alex (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 2 years ago 4

After working fine for many weeks, I went this morning to authorize an additional device in Actiontiles and now the app shows "INIT" and won't go beyond INIT, and I see "Initializing SmartApp Version: 6.10+002-Prod" in the logs over and over. I have rebooted my hub, updated the connection on the actiontiles side, and none of this is making any change.

Action buttons not working anymore on iPad 2nd gen

SneakX 2 years ago in Browsers Tablets Phones / Apple updated by Feliz Lalof 2 years ago 3

Hi,

Been using ActionTiles for years on an old 2nd gen iPad as a weather station and lights control unit.

Since about a week the action buttons (dim lights, shut down lights, etc) are not functioning. Did something recently change in the software, I thought that the iPad 2 with Safari was supported (can’t install nothing else with the old iOS 9.x on it unfortunately).


Thanks.

Do I understand the licensing correctly ?

MevetS 2 years ago in License & Purchasing updated by Mike Puiu 2 years ago 2

I currently have 3 hubs.

1) Inside the house.

2) Inside the Garage

3) Inside a RV 

Based on the Licensing information, I've found, it would seem that I need 2 Licenses.

Is this correct ?

If so, will all those hubs still be able to interact?

Image displayed from BlueIris on my Android tablet quit working, but the same media tile displays OK on my iPad

TheLAD 2 years ago in Browsers Tablets Phones / Android updated by Alex (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 2 years ago 3

Did Android change something recently to make this stop working.  For a long time I have had a media tile built to retrieve images 1/second from BlueIris my doorbell camera (EZVIZ).  The same media tile still displays fine on my iPad.  The media tile is set as a still image to this URL: http://192.168.1.xxx:yyyy/image/doorbell?user=samsung-tab-a&pw=?????????

SmartWeather Station Tile location Authorization issue

johnh1967 2 years ago updated by Feliz Lalof 2 years ago 6

I recently had to authorize my AT panels with my Samsung account. It always seems like there's something new that I have to do with AT, but I think this was a requirement from ST I believe. 

I currently have two ST hubs in different locations with two AT seat licenses. I noticed that once I authorized my (at home) AT with my Samsung account, the SmartWeather Tile app stopped giving me its location and other weather data. 

I looked at the panel with the same SmartWeather tile app connected to the other hub  (different house, different AT seat license) had not been authorized yet, and the weather tile was still working perfectly. Once I authorized that panel through AT and Samsung, the SmartWeather tile was also not working correctly.

I had to authorize my AT with my Samsung account because AT was not updating the status of switches and lights correctly. I am wondering if anybody else is experiencing the same situation.

Hide Tilesets Using Configurable Status

Jeff 8 years ago in Panels (dashboards) updated by cobee 2 years ago 3 1 duplicate

I would like to be able hide a tileset based on whether or not I'm home, or if the home security is in alarm. I would like to enter a PIN/password to reset the alarm. It would also be nice to have a tileset be view only until a PIN is entered to allow changes.

Weather Tile widget generation from theweather.com

JB Bentz 7 years ago in Media Tiles / Weather & Traffic updated by Dan Jarvis 2 years ago 32

I found a new resource that could come in handy for AT.  It's a weather widget that can generate an image, rather than just html.  Its fully customization, and may work for other tile sizes.  I just started screwing around with it. check it out:

Paulo Nóbrega 8 years ago in Shortcut Tiles updated by Wingnut1000 2 years ago 252

hi there....

Is there a way to open android apps, ou executy an app activity?

I use chromecast audio for multiroom, i can't seem to find a way to open the Google Play Music within smartthings...
In my dashboard and just wanted at least to open the app, and then the music app can handle where to play the music...

Does anyone found any shortcut to open Play Music? I've tried as shortcut the app name, the activity to open app but nothing works... In the dashboard when i click that shortcut it takes me to configuration of the tiles. LOL

Does it make sense?

The latest Fully Kiosk Browser release has helped a bunch with opening Android apps from actiontiles. You can now select apps for the whitelist.  You can also figure out the app intent URL very easily, by turning on the new single app mode and selecting the app you want.  It will then load the intent URL which you can copy and paste it into a shortcut tile.  So far I have gotten it to work with Spotify and Hangouts.  Works like a charm.

tinyCam Pro Android App web server: Stream RTSP and Wyze Cam to ActionTiles!

Geewiz 7 years ago in Media Tiles / Video Camera Feeds updated by Matt Pierson 2 years ago 154

After attempting to stream using Blue Iris (CPU on the server went through the roof), and not having any success using some of the other methods found here on the forum, I decided to give tinyCam a try.   


There was another post that made a passing reference to the tinyCam webserver, so I installed the app on my Nexus 9, setup webserver and am now able to stream one of my outside security cams to a media tile.


Image 2040


Here's the media setup panel...


Image 2041


The problem I'm having is that I can't seem to address any of the other three cameras.  There is supposedly a parameter to select a camera, but it's not working for me.   Here's the request parameters from the Tinycam webserver API...


Perhaps there are others using tinyCam Pro Webserver that might share their experiences...

Using Actiontiles with DockScreen android app

W_B 4 years ago in Browsers Tablets Phones / Android updated 2 years ago 2

Image 5992

I'm a long time Actiontiles user, who recently started developing an app called DockScreen Google Play


Its an app for keeping your screen on and viewing your notifications and news, it also has a webview that can display the Actiontiles web app..

It can also autoupdate websites so it solved that problem for me with Actiontiles.

I'm wondering if any actiontiles users will test it and give some feedback for further development..
