With Stephan’s permission, I’ve taken over the development of ABC - Advanced Button Controller.
UPDATE - Unfortunately due to the changes in SmartThings this app will no longer work. It’s been a pleasure to help you over the past 2-3 years, maybe I’ll see you in Home Assistant at some point in the future
This Topic will now cover the App from Nov 2019 onwards. The original Topic run by Stephan can be found ([BETA] Advanced Button Controller (ABC) )
You can get it here https://github.com/paulsheldon/SmartThings-PS
I’m happy to do some small changes and keep developing the app where possible.
I’ll also update this topic soon to include more information on the app and the latest changes that have been made
Otherwise the TouchLink method gives a better control and you can still use the left and right buttons for other functions with ABC
It seems, that the classic app is deprecated for good now. So I only have the new app now. What are my options, if ABC keeps crashing in the new app?
GSzabados:
Download and install the ABC Advanced Button Controller SmartApp, and set up the buttons the do brightening and dimming steps on press or hold. What ever you want. The SmartApp might crashes in the new SmartThings app, so it is advised to install it in the Classic app.

@Mikkel_Ramskov_Kjaer , Try to get the latest version of ABC.
Go to his Dev Github and download Dev version, it works. Still has some glitches to be fixed, but it works.
Please try the code from the develop branch in ide and try again

If you find any non-working settings please let me know.
This will be the new version sent to master if no faults are found by 2021-07-09T23:00:00Z (UTC)
You may have to update some mappings due to slight code improvements

I find it astonishing that adjusting the brightness level by steps is not natively available within ST. I have been using ABC for this. Is there any solution when SmartApps go away?

@Mariano_Colmenarejo implemented this capability in his driver. I believe it should be a part of official drivers.
