Well, I created the thread below a while back:
I need to say this because I am sure I am not the only one who lives in constant fear of SmartThings breaking and/or breaking for good.
My main issue is the thought of being forced to use the New SmartThings App. It is, in my strong opinion, 100 steps backwards. The main reason why I chose SmartThings is because of the vast number of custom apps that allow for “Things” to be integrated into SmartThings that are not officially supported. I understand that this causes issues with the reliability of SmartThings as a whole but again for me, that was the attraction.
I have been seeing more and more threads with people having issues with the Classic App. I am one of those people as well. My Things Tab no longer loads. My SmartApp Tab loads 60% of the time. Stuff randomly stops working. I recei…
I can say that I am no longer in fear! The New App has come a loooooooooooonnnnnng way and it’s quite usable and even intuitive!
Then I created this thread yesterday:
I know that I should be happy with all that I’ve accomplished with ST. I still have more “things” I would like to accomplish but unfortunately, I’ve hit the 300 device limit.
I’ve deleted some Virtual Switches and deleted “things” that were not really serving a “good enough” purpose. Now I want to do blinds and I can’t without adding another system.
Is it sad that I am silently waiting on my system to crash so I can do it all over again!
So, I am going to go into this optimistically. I do understand that there are limits on actions in the New App which I don’t understand fully but hopefully, I’ll be able to redo alot of my rules to be more efficient and this give me my fix that I’ve been longing for!
ONWARD I SAY!!! ONWARD!!!
