[BETA] PimaticDroid - Control Pimatic with Android

---

I’ve just uploaded the second alpha version, it should be available within a few hours.

I’ve fixed some bugs, and the sorting is now the same as in the web UI.
There’s also an option to show group names.

I’ll add more devices later, because I’m still working on the code behind devices.

Already got the update, rotating the interface seems to work fine Also great to have the group names visible!
Thanks for the update!
tested on Nexus 5, Android 6.0.1 MMB29S

Runs in Amazon FireTV, but i cant control this app. A update like a beta release would be nice

looks good! but dont work with https

Sorry guys for not checking in here.

I’m currently doing as much work as I can on the socket connection, as it turned out not to be very solid.
I’ll try to test a bit more with HTTPS, I’ll put it on the bug list.

As for Android TV functionality, I might add that in a later state, but it’s really low on my priority list.

I’ll move the app to public beta once I’ve stabilized the socket connection and implemented some more features.

Another progress update

• I’ve managed to make the socket connection quite reliable, so that part looks mostly done.
• I’m also working on SSL support, but I am afraid I do not have that much knowledge on this area. (If someone could send me some basic info on how SSL is implemented in pimatic that would be great )
• I’ve also done improvements to Tasker integration, sadly this means that not all previous tasks are compatible with the next alpha.

I can’t work too much on the app, but I’ll try to get the next alpha ready as soon as possible.

The link gives no update.

@p4co86 I have not yet send out an update, just wanted to show that I’m still working on it.

I’ve been testing with one of the Tasker plugins in Automate (free Tasker alternative) and it works great. Love it!

Well, that took me quite a long time, but I have another update for you guys.

Since the connection is finally quite stable, I’ve released it as a public beta, so it is now accessible directly from the Play Store.

Changes:

• Added new devices (LED, Thermostat)
• Improved connection
• Two connection options: always on, screen only
• Graph view to watch history of device values

I hope you like the update, please report bugs and issues!

First of all: thanks for your efforts in creating an very usefull android app for pimatic Great job!

i really missed an android app for my tablet and mobile phone.

the beta version installs fine on both devices and run good.

i just stepped over a display problem with values from my DHT sensor:

the values have too much decimals: e.g. it display6.1234567890°C — i think 2 decimals are enough!?

i will test it further from now on!

@johnny11 Good find, I think I have mine set up to round it in pimatic itself.
I think I’ll solve it by rounding all variables to 2 decimals by default, and add an option to edit it device specific.

I have just uploaded a small update, which fixes a rare bug with variables that are not initialized, and from now on temperature values are rounded to 2 decimals.
Later on I will probably add support for custom rounding.

nice, would be also nice if variables devices would be cut after the second decimal. and system devices too.

Just released a new update, finally got SSL to work! (At least I think so, please test it!)
Latest version is 0.2.2-beta1

@p4co86 I will include that when I have a custom rounding implementation

@FrostedKiwi works great with SSL!!!

@n3ro Good to hear that!

@FrostedKiwi

maybe you are able to build an app for control pimatic with android smartwatches like HomeCompanion ??

@xCite86 I do have a G Watch R, so I will definitely look into it, but there is still lots of work on the main app

@FrostedKiwi

okay, thanks for information… no stress… pimatic in combination with smartwatch could be awesome… maybe interact with google via speech would be very nice too
