I noticed when viewing recent history of the SmartWeather Station Tile in SmartThings that every 30 minutes ActionTiles refreshes/polls the weather information. Is there any way to disable that so that I have full control of when the tile gets refreshed? I have a CoRE piston set up to poll the weather tile on certain events. I know this probably sounds like a dumb request, but like I said I would rather have full control of when the information gets refreshed. Just a personal preference.

Is it possible to dial a phone with a tile button press?  I would like to have individual tiles for each of my family members.  Theory is to press on a family member's picture, and have skype or similar VOIP make the call to the family member and talk through the tablet.  Has this been done?

One of the key components of the ActionTiles cloud (outsourced to Google Cloud Services) is experiencing a major outage today, Tuesday July 17th, 2018, starting about 1226h PST.

• For some or all Customers, this may have result in the app not loading at all, black screens, empty Panels, and/or Panels not functioning properly.
• We may also post updates on https://status.ActionTiles.com and Twitter.

The problem is resolved.

We apologize for the temporary inconvenience,

Yes, another question about video streams. Apologies, but it's the one thing stopping me from using AT as a panel on an android tablet

I've got a MJPEG stream running for an IP camera.  It's actually an RSTP stream being converted via motionEye on a Pi3, but I'm not sure that's related to the issue.

If I add the MJPEG stream as a tile, everything works fine until I click on the stream to enlarge it.  Once I do that, the stream stops, and closing the enlarged view doesn't restart the smaller view in the tile.  It's just stuck.

I read about Chrome having a hard limit on sockets (https://support.actiontiles.com/communities/12/topics/1295-full-screen-video-stop-popping-up-after-used-once), and there seems to have been a related change in an AT release a while back (https://support.actiontiles.com/communities/12/topics/2040-release-v662-media-tile-video-stream-stability-enhancements) -

close video stream prior to zoom in order to save concurrent sockets

So, I tried Firefox and Edge, and they handle the zoom/close scenario perfectly.  So it does seem to be a Chrome thing.

My aim was to use Fully Browser on an android tablet as a kiosk, but that basically uses Chrome so has the same issue.  I can use firefox on the tablet but I can't come up with a firefoxy-way of running a decent kiosk experience.

I'm looking for a way to get a tile that show the status of all windows/doors as a group so that I know at a glance, when leaving, that I haven't left something open. Sure, I can add 20 tiles and look for the one that is different, but I suspect it would be preferable to have a single tile that basically just tells me that all items are currently closed.

Also, as a complete AT newbie, is there a way (or plans) to nest tiles? In other words, using the example above, I'd see a note that All Windows/Doors Secure is False (color, whatever) and then tap the tile to have it bring up another set of tiles to show me all the windows and doors and a tile to get back to the top.

I'm sure this must have been raised before, but sorry I can't find it with the search engine in the threads...

I have been playing around with what's possible with the Remote Admin of Fully Browser, including the image capture from the on board camera, what I would like to do is use webcore to code to capture say 10 images on motion detection... doesn't even need to be the Fully browser motion detector, for example the device is in my kitchen so if the kitchen motion detector triggers and SHM is 'armed' then I would like to use the tablet camera to capture some images.

I think I can do all of it in webcore except when I issue the command 

/?cmd=getCamshot&password=[pass] 

to Fully browser - how do I capture that image ?? how can I redirect that image to a store somewhere ? anyone achieved this ?

Have an alexa device connected via bluetooth to my tablet and would like to have a tile that i can push so it plays a pre-program set of songs (via Amazon music, or youtube) and the output will be hear on Alexa

Does anyone know if the Ring always home app has an "intents": special URL prefix?  I would like to add a tile that opens the Ring app and this seems like the best way.  On a related note, does anyone know if there is a way with automatelt or another service to kick off Fully Kiosk if another app has been open for X mins, like the Ring app for example:-)?

Thanks!!

Hi I wanted to add a tile to track the arrival of Boston subway train in real time. Has anyone had any luck doing this? I know there are plenty of apps that have this capability but I thought it would like nice as a tile. 

Hi All,

I have a voltage sensor in ST actually measuring Water Tank levels and so was wanting to be able to have a % symbol rather than the 'V' units on the tile. I do have % showing in ST but I presume AT doesn't pull the unit from ST.

So is there a way for me to change the measurement unit symbol for the Voltage Sensor tile?

Thanks

does anyone have this camera? And does it work with action tiles?

This is dead simple to setup and works great on tiles.  It let's you stream your computers webcam to a tile.  https://github.com/gen2brain/cam2ip

Works with Linux, raspi, and windows

cam2ip

Turn any webcam into an IP camera.

Example (in web browser):

http://localhost:56000/mjpeg

or

http://localhost:56000/html

Hello all

I've been working some bit with ActionTiles and Homey in my home to select on the best fit solution. Don't know how popular I will get with this, but my opinion is Homey serves the best automation flows from a easy GUI interface and better connectivity options, but AT gives a far better remote/dashboard presentation. So the questions is... would it be possible to be creative and get the best of both...

What I like to achieve is having commands like a virtual device or virtual simulation in AT to trigger flows in Homey. Is this doable and if yes, can someone explain this please? 

Thanks a lot!

I have linked to my location and pulled all my devices. I can create a tile for each light and turn off/on but how do I say add two bedroom lights under one tile. so the both turn on/off. I tried creating a routine that says bedroom on and bedroom off but could not get them into actiontile. Im familiar with how to do this in hue and wink, but im lost on this please help.

I'm thinking if maybe will be possible to group/combine some sensor info in only 1 Tile, so we can save space for others tiles, and that maybe will help when you have a limit space to add your tiles, like small table or Cell.

For example in my case I have 4 Ecobee Sensor and planing to add more as I like to know the Temperature/Presence inside the house at the room level

Same maybe can be for example same sensor that also give you the Presence in the area were the sensor is located.

For example this is what I have now:

And if we combine those ones can be as below:

Asking if possible as those sensor only provide information, so there is any interaction with then. Also maybe we can have different positions or maybe the tile should/can be larger.

Thanks in advance.

Have looked all over and do not see the exact link to use to download the NST Manager.

I have this device that has the official capability "Voltage Measurement".

There are some notifications (alerts?) that require attention (e.g., water leaks, refrigerator door left open, etc). It'd be nice if those could result in a dialog pop-up window overlayed on the Action Tiles page and would require acknowledgement / dismissal by the user.

I have 3 cams streaming through a TinyCam web server running on a dedicated Galaxy S5.   

The tile is set up as MJPEG video stream using the URL: http://xxxxxxxx:8083/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi

I have three cams running on one panel (Security), and a 4th camera running on another panel (Weather).

The tiles run fine for an hour, or two, or more, then randomly they will freeze/stop updating.   A manual refresh of the panel will get them started again.

I'm using two Android tablets.  One is a Nexus 9, and the other is Lenovo Tab 10.  I"m wondering if there is some setting on the tablet I'm missing, or something within ActionTiles?

Thanks for any help/ideas!

I'd like to make a certain tile a specific color and give it a custom icon. How can I do that?
