iOS 2.0 Discussion!

[ogiewon]

Didn’t someone figure out how to run the Android version of the ST App in an emulator running under MS Windows a while back? If you really want the “Contacts” feature in iOS, you could try following the instructions in this thread to see if you can get the Android version running on your PC…

SmartThings on PC with Bluestacks

I don’t know about you folks, but I HATE using a mobile app when my computer is sitting right there in front of me. I’m a noob with SmartThings and as I’m trying to figure it out, I’m just meandering around the menu system. I like that the rules engine is web-based (sort of - I wish I could host it locally) and Smart Tiles works from my PC, obviously. The ST app continues to annoy me, though. Then I remembered about Bluestacks! It’s a piece of free software that lets you run Android apps from your PC. It’s able to sync up with Google Play and essentially acts just like the apps on your phone, but with the bigger screen, easier mouse and keyboard controls, etc. Anyway, if you’re like me, you may appreciate using it: http://www.bluestacks.com/

Or, just send @pstuart your credentials!!! Just kidding!!!
