Battery Minder App

[mmlabelle (Michel Labelle)]

Just flipping through the SmartThings YouTube Channel looking for apps that might be interesting or have good UI ideas.

If you look at the video: How to: Trigger Things to Happen When Temperatures Reach a Certain Temperature

At time mark 2-3 seconds there is a great view of the poster’s dashboard, and at the bottom there is a group marked Battery Minder that shows the current status (good, ok, replace now) for various devices.

Looking through the Community site, in the SmartThings App and the IDE I can’t find anything like this. @Ben, did you folks accidentally preview something new or could you provide a link to the app as I can think of a number of uses for this ability to summarize window/door sensor states AND I’d love to be able to see my battery stats at a glance though I am doing that with @625alex’s Action4 dashboard as well.

[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. New Dashboard Feature allows you to view all your device information using any web browser. See the Version 2.0 Release Notes for more information. It can automatically poll the devices at a specified interval. Turn Off All Lights and/or Switches with a push of a button. The first time you open the application, I recommend hitting Done as soon as you see the Setup screen because if you back out of the app instead of hitting Done, the app…
