Click the three dots and then Manage Home.
LOL all previous instructions I have provided to others on this forum over the past year are no longer valid in regards to using STSC
Blame Apple for that!!! Cough, cough HomeâŠ
I like the app 100 times better than the older version of New app. Nice move, in my opinion. At least you can rearrange things the way you want and hide devices too. Good work!
Thanks. I wish there was a way to change it from the dashboard. It should do it through automations but my presence sensing doesnât always work as it should. Hopefully this update fixes that
A few people have commented that the âDevicesâ page is just a bit list of all devices. Thatâs true, but you can at least group by room. Tap the three dots in the top right > Sort By > Rooms.
(This is one reason I HATE the overflow menu - useful features get totally hidden)
One thing that is missing for me is the ability to display devices by service. I want to see all my lighting in one place, same with all my cameras, sensors, switches etc. I really like the way the Fibaro app does this - you get convenient all on/off control of rooms or the whole home without needing to create tons of scenes. Shame this sort of thing isnât here.
Also, room limit of 20 is clearly arbitrary and ridiculous.
On a positive note - itâs much better than the previous version IMHO (although still not at parity with Classic). For me itâs faster overall, but seems to want to reload devices every time itâs launched.
Still sux.
Iâve been using Rooms as a grouping method and it makes since that the New App is focusing attention there. However, you shouldnât have to go in another layer to get an overview of whatâs going on in a particular Room.
For example:
My HVAC Room list the temp and humidity readings for various sensors throughout the house. In the Classic App, these are displayed on the tiles giving you a good overview.
In the New App, it just says what they are with no readingsâŠWTF!!! This just makes no sense at all.
Also, devices that I know are using stock DTH are showing as disconnected and uncontrollable in the New App but work just fine in the Classic App.
Overall, I like the new layout. At least they are listening.
If they added an option in the 3 dot options box for âlist view by roomâ list view by connectionâ list view by statusâ and also âselect default viewâ that would most definately get a big thumbs up from users who are looking for a similar look to classic with a modern twist
Forcing those pointless unhelpful boxs on users gets a thumbs down
Disclaimer⊠i am a UI nutcase who has designed front ends exactly like connect in the past⊠it has a crap load of potential but will the levels above design sanction changes⊠usually not which crushes flair and imagination, something most apps lack
Has no one said it yet or did I miss itâŠ? Does the âdashboardâ not look like a pretty close replica to the Apple âHomeâ app, of which I think is extremely confusing/clunky to use/setupâŠ?
Iâm not seeing this limit. I have 26 rooms. I am on iOS.
I have more than the 20 as well. I believe the limit is trying to create them in the New App. You can create more than 20 in the Classic App and those would be ported over to the New App.
Ah, got ya. Thanks.
Good to know!
They are rolling out IOS update nowâŠAwesome! version 1.6.27
Frequent crashes on start up for me (iOS).
My initial reactions are positive. Lots of improvements over the Former STSC app. (Was that the middle child app that nobody likes and will forget about eventually). Definitely some bugs like not saving wallpapers and reorders. Speed is a definite improvement. Would love to see a beta program where users could report bugs and problems. Being able to configure specific information on a device tile would be great, as well as a history page for a single device. A big step in parity, good to see them putting in some effort!
Updated on iOS, power cycled ST hub:
- ST Hub connected
- HUE Hub connected
- all OEM devices (motion, sensor) status show as âDisconnectedâ
- All HUE bulbs show as âConnectedâ and are operational
Controller version on ST devices: 16300-3.0.10
Very annoying that existing rooms donât migrate over, and that SHM needs to be setup again.
Newbie here from Iris⊠Set up ST & Echo yesterday got everything working and went to bed. Got up and and checked ST and all that came up was a new home screen and asking to add devicesâŠOh No!!! Went to Echo and found all my devices still there (Yeah!). Went back and found I had a new update then found out that it moved me to home(1) for some reason? Anyway got back to my location and walaa itâs still there!! New version looks a whole lot better to me!!
Dear ST donât scare me like that!! Iâm old school!! Had to get rid of my flip phone and that scared me!!! But the update does look good!!
Contact ST support and ask them to sync your data. Or you can try going into settings for each room in the Classic app and saving the room and see if they show in STSC.
