UX difference between Groovy and Lua drivers

Timer/Time of day automation is missing from Edge drivers
both drivers have switch capability



Hello, @veonua.
Can you share the following info, please?

  • Original DTH where the timer tile appears?
  • VID used by your driver. Get the devices list and it’s the value in presentationId

They don’t always appear in Groovy drivers either so I don’t see it as a Groovy v Edge thing. Might be more an old style manifest v new style presentation thing.

yes, Groovy (old) DTH has timer tiles

things are even more mysterious - I had an icon and timer tile while the device was not assigned to any room.
when I assigned it to the room the UI disappeared

Hi again, @veonua.
I wasn’t able to replicate the issue, I can see the extra control you mention in different profiles I configured in an Edge driver. This is at least for an Android device, I’ll check if this is something related to iOS.
Which version of the ST app are you using?

It has happened to me several times, it is a problem in the installation of the device.
It reappears doing one of these things, clearing the app’s cache:

  • with the CLI, reinstall the driver, without uninstalling the device. Close the details view and reopen It. You will see in the logcat that driver is reinstalled.
  • Reinstall driver by changing for another driver in the app and returning to the original one later
  • Uninstall the device and reinstall it.

yes, probably it’s an iOS version issue. mine version is 1.6.70-549

but now my account is completely out of order, all my automations and scenes are gone.
When I try to create one the app reports “Network error” both on Android and iOS.

Wow! I I thought it only happened to me.
Yesterday, I opened a ticket to UK support and they told me they would look into it, but I have already rewritten all the scenes and 25 Automations that magically disappeared.

Have better luck than me and appear alone!

I have already rewritten all the scenes and 25 Automations that magically disappeared.

unfortunately, I even unable to recreate them. There is an error when I try to save on IOS or even open the Automation page on Android

We checked in a device with the same version, the automations didn’t delete and can be created normally.
Have you tried reinstalling the app? This helps to force a refresh in iOS.

If you keep having issues with the mobile app, you should contact your corresponding Customer Support so they can analyze the root cause.
Go to the SmartThings website and click on “Support”. At the bottom part, it shows you the different contact options, you can select the one you prefer.

Last night it was working fine.
As allĂ­ was lost in IDE and API too, I gave them up for lost.
I was able to rewrite everything without problem.
It must be related to the general incident yesterday.

They have written to me from support and I have told them that there are more users with the problem and I gave them the link

have you tried to move rooms and rename devices?
Now it sounds like “works on my computer”.

Hi, @SamsungZell :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:. Could you help us with this issue, please?
