The Good:The buttons are great! The batteries have lasted for over a year so far, and get used daily. The Bluetooth range is excellent in a 3200sq home and has never let me down. If it doesn’t work, Homeseer has always been the culprit (shame on you Homeseer).Even so, Homeseer really expands the otherwise limited functionality of the buttons.The Bad:First off, for a company all about connectivity and networking - it should be able to find networked attached devices without asking for the password on the bottom of the device.Second, the app loses connection with the hub frequently while programming it.Lastly, why the forced portrait mode? I use the keyboard with an iPad Pro and switch back and forth between Homeseer and Flic to test things out. REALLY annoying.
Best Button for a smart home!

Flic is the glue that ties my smart home together. Even with Alexa or Siri, sometimes it just best to control your lights when you walk into the room by the press of a button. Flic paired with the Flic Hub provides the fastest, I mean instant control of lights and other devices! Matter is also supported with their hubs which makes the buttons even more powerful. I love flic and how easy they make it to control almost anything with their devices.
Needs to extend virtual keypad capability

This is a great product. I use it with my hubs, with my iPhone and iPads. I have recently discovered its Universal feature, which allows my flic to simulate a keypress on my PC and using something like Autohotkey accomplish a lot of new things.I just wish their universal feature emulated a lot of ‘virtual’ keys, like F13 to F24. That way the hotkeys would not compete with software hotkeys.I would love to have emailed this suggestion, but Shortcut Labs does not publish any emails addresses. A dubious practice.
Smart button doesn’t connect and does not recognize other devices
vrush4
It’s the single worst smart home solution I’ve ever seen. I got three flic2 smart buttons, two of which do not connect with my iphone. The third one connects but does not toggle my wemo smart sockets even when wemo app as well as google home is able to do so. Who designs a smart button that needs to be connected with bluetooth to the phone at all times when it doesn’t even operate anything on the phone?? And lastly, the two buttons which do not connect can’t be factory reset as well because after numerous attempts I’m unable to remove the battery.
- Fixes issue where first button event could be missed after inactivity
