Flic 2 Button 3pack - Smart Home Control and Smart Phone control Buttons - Works With Hue, LIFX, IKEA Trådfri, Sonos, Spotify, IFTTT and much more

Worked for me without any issues. I tried the phone as hub first and that worked. However, I decided to get the $30 hub and start over. There were some minor gaffs adding the Alexa skill for Flic e.g. I had to choose an action in order to add the skill but it seemed to work. Documentation is scarce but it all seems to work ok.

I tried the Flic buttons using Bluetooth (e.g., no hub) and it was a horrible experience. You could only get the buttons to work if you opened the app and your phone was in range (iPhone experience).With the hub, it’s a whole new game. No issues with button connectivity. And with the hub, you get the benefit of being able to connect the buttons to homekit.However! Each button must either be completely dedicated to HomeKit or completely un-dedicated to HomeKit. To give an example, you can program 3 button actions per button - click, double-click, and long press. If you add a button to HomeKit, all of those actions must be done using HomeKit. You can’t have a single click do an Alexa action (or other non-homekit action) and then have a double click do a HomeKit action.Another feature that I would like to explore more is that you have a 2mm and 3mm jack input on the hub. So, you can attach a speaker or a receiver attachment. There is a feature that will allow you to make the buttons control your remotes but you need that receiver (it’s not included) but it seems neat.With that all said, buttons *with the hub* are great. The buttons without the hub are poo. If you’re gonna get the buttons, get the hub.

Very handy & easy to set up & use

Die Beschreibung weckt Erwartungen an Funktionen wie bei NFC/NFC-Tools – mit dem Unterschied, dass man einfach einen Knopf drückt, statt ein NFC-Tag zu scannen. Tatsächlich lässt sich damit jedoch nur eine begrenzte Anzahl an Apps steuern, und das auch nur bei bestehender Bluetooth-Verbindung zum iPhone.Für die Integration in Apple HomeKit wird zusätzlich ein Flic Hub LR benötigt.Für mich ist das zu wenig.

These buttons work very well with the Alexa devices and they replaced my Smartthings buttons, which needed to happen since Smartthings is unreliable and now they're pretty much nuking their entire platform by removing all user made modifications.Anyway, these are very expensive and they need a hub. That's the downside. The upside is that they're small and they work consistently. It took me two minutes to download the app, connect the hub, and set up the buttons. Alexa integration is ridiculously easy. Just set the buttons in the app to work with Alexa and they appear as a possible trigger in the Alexa app.Here is the biggest issue encountered after just two days. Nearly ALL of the buttons fell off of the walls. Some were attached to doors--others to drywall. All, but one, fell. And I have pets, so they were all hairy when I picked them up. Just glad no one decided to chew on them (stupid cats will chew on anything). And, no, animals didn't knock them off. Some were well out of reach.Their adhesive is terrible. They should just have done what the Smartthings buttons did and make them magnetic. Then people have the choice: double sided tape OR a magnet (I attached washers to the wall, so I could just take them off and put them back on at will). Now I just need to use double-sided tape anyway, as the adhesive fails pretty quickly.Other than the garbage adhesive, I like these quite a bit. And the button feels nice to push and there aren't as many accidental presses as a Smartthings button, which will press down if you breathe on it.4/5. Overall, a great product with a crappy adhesive.
