[OBSOLETE] Simple Device Viewer

I won’t be porting this SmartApp so it will stop working when the Groovy platform is retired. Allows you to easily see a list of information about your devices like battery percentages, temperatures, how long since last event, switch state, etc. Receive Push and/or SMS notifications based on temperature, battery level, and/or time since last event.

[OBSOLETE] Device Monitor - Get Notified if Devices Stop Reporting

This can be more accurate than looking at events sent by the device. 2016-09-06 - Update: Added support for Ask Alexa. 2016-08-22 - Update: I have made a few changes. I am using a more accurate event detection, battery levels can be checked, and you can be notified when devices come back online. Check post 63 for more info.

Thanks for the information…

I have pasted both codes into the developer’s site and published but I am not seeing them on my Mobile App.
