I’ve confirmed it’s listed under the IDE. In looking into this some more I noticed I’m missing a few new smartapps that you had made available so I added a few of those as well. But none of them has appeared on my Automations list in the iOS app. I uninstalled the WindowsOrDoorsOpen smartapp from the IDE and tried installing it again. It’s listed under the IDE, but not in the iOS app.
The New UI rollout has been quite problematic for me. I lost control of my SmartThings outlets (zigbee devices) for 2 days and it just got fixed this morning. I should email ST support about the smartapp not showing up and see if they can help.
Just want to inform my contributors and all ecobee users that a new versions of MyEcobeeDevice(v6.3.1) & MyEcobeeInit (v5.2.2) can be downloaded at my e-commerce solution provider (sellfy) using the original download link.
You’d probably need to refresh the Samsung connect app’s cache in order to see the UI changes. There are some instructions to do so in the release notes.
Since MyEcobeeDevice V6.1 , the new presentation (UI) adds a custom capability (set Target Humidity** for controlling humidity via the dehumidifiers/humidifiers connected to your ecobee tstat(s) , see image below).
The new version of MyEcobee device (v6.3.1) aims to correct some incompatibility issues with the new Samsung app in terms of automations/scenes since the last Samsung app version.
On top of it, there are many complimentary smartapps designed for My ecobee DTH and are located at my github. All ecobee smartapps are explained at the ST community wiki (all ecobee* smartapps):
I’m unable to edit existing automations on My Ecobee devices, and new ones cannot have the My Ecobee devices in the “If” part. The existing If entries have “Unknown Condition” as the criteria.
The is on iOS app (latest version 1.6.70)
I already upgraded to the latest versions of My Ecobee (MyEcobeeDevice(v6.3.1) & MyEcobeeInit (v5.2.2))
Do you have an iOS device that you can test with? I was able to edit/add when I changed the device type (aka handler), in the IDE, to Z-Wave thermostat.
No, I don’t have any iOS devices. You can try to switch to a Z-Wave tstat, and back to My Ecobee Device, and clear the cache (as indicated in the installation pdf file) .
Otherwise, if it doesn’t work, I’d try to reinstall from scratch. And, like I wrote to you, this may be a specific ST UI issue not related to my code per se.
The “MyEcobeeInit” SmartApp was not showing up in the SmartThings app, despite killing the app and reopening several times. I took the following steps…
Login to https://my.smartthings.com/
(This is in Beta and I only learned about it via another ST community topic.)
Click “Automations”
Select “Add Groovy SmartApp”
Select “MyEcobeeInit” and step through the rest of the process.
After that, I as able to see MyEcobeeInit in the Automations tab of the app.
I was able to continue to step 4 in the MyEcobee Device setup instructions either through the app or by continuing the process on my.smartthings.com
Perhaps a similar process used to be available directly through the app, but it was not available for me.
Consider an update to the instructions.
And, you can still use the SmartThings app to add a smartapp via the automation sub menu>Add Routine (upper right corner) > Discover option (bottom menu).
Thanks, Yves. I see now how the instructions lead to the right answer.
If you are interested, the yellow highlighted areas in the images are the parts of the instructions that originally threw me off the intended path.
“Add Smartapp” is shown in such a way to make me think I am looking for the literal text “Add Smartapp”, just like I found the literal text “Add Routine” and “Discover”.
In the latest version of the app, the only thing I see that might be considered the “Custom section” is a tab at the top of the Add Routine page called “Custom” (as opposed to the “Discover” tab) that took me in the wrong direction.
Is this software going to cease functioning after the Sept 22 update? I assume it will, which is a bit frustrating since I only purchased it less than a year ago. Or am I missing something?
I simply want to be able to make my ecobee geofencing work with more than one phone. This software allowed me to do this with the exposure of the comfort settings in ST. Is the only answer that we must move to another home automation platform?
FYI we have been discussing options for the post Groovy world in this thread I started. Unfortunately we have not found any great solutions, but we’ve found workable things to use at least in the interim.
