Wow, great job in getting the Release Notes out early! It’s not even available in the Play Store yet 😉

EDIT: Now it is 👍

The Android bug where you click “Done” on a child smart app and you don’t get taken to the parent is still there.

Ok! I really like the automatons tab that now contains smartapps and routines.

It looks really snazzy so far!

Yep ☹ The overall feel is much snappier, a few fresh graphics in the UI, looking better. I hope the invisible side is reliable.

The fireplace and switch Icons are still overlaid with the couch. Not a big deal, however.

The new Automation intro video mentions something new at about 00:45:

“See recommended routines and automation for your home by tapping the menu button in the smartthing app on your smartphone and selecting recommendations.”

Where can I find this?

@slagle

It would of been great if they could of taken 30 seconds to change the font color on the activity feed for the extra events…

Just saying, grey on grey still didn’t with that great.

Ok. Just updated to the latest version of andriod and decided I needed to go into C0RE to change a setting in one of my pistons.  
I click on the ‘3 lines’ in the top right corner and when it opens ‘SmartApps’ is missing.  
Where is it now plaese @slagle?  
Thanks.

Oops. Should have looked.  
I suppose that makes sense when you think about it as they have renamed ‘Routines’ tab to ‘Automations’ and SmartApps are automations I suppose.  
Thanks @Whippm

Congratulations ST! You finally get it! The UI is cleaner and the interface seems to be a lot faster than last night when it took me over a minute to load my SmartApps list.

If you haven’t already or you feel like we did a good job and want to replace an old one we’d love a review on the Play Store! 🙂
