[BETA] App Android

You should make a request to identify the device and the device type

No, in the request

Oh yeah, indeed!
But I don’t understand the point… Why don’t you just call the create function?
And there’s already a function called createByDeviceTypeIdentifier :thinking:

Damn, that’s true… I hadn’t seen it. I’ll test it as soon as possible. Thanks

Hello, can we see the Dashboard on iPhone 5s? Thank you.

Hello @alain33
As specified in the title, this is an Android app. It is not available for iOS, but it is planned!

Hello,
Just to report two small bugs:

  • When I switch networks (WiFi to/from mobile), the app crashes systematically on the next opening.
  • When you create a device and then delete it, it remains in the app’s memory, which quickly leads to duplicates. Is it possible to flush it?

Hello!

Hmm, I don’t think that has happened to me, but I’ll look into it, thanks for the info!

Well yes, that’s normal and it has been mentioned before!
The sync (as I implemented it) is not two-way, but it will be fixed in the next update! :slight_smile:

Hello,
I tried to install the application on my phone, it worked but every time I launch it, it crashes my phone and I can’t uninstall it.
Does anyone have any idea?
Maybe it’s because of my Android version?

Hello @Adrien

Could you be more specific?

You can’t uninstall it? Why?

Which version are you on?
What smartphone?
Give us more information if you want us to help you ^^

Have you tried re-downloading it?
What is your configuration?
Have you enabled unknown sources?

When I click on the application to launch it, it says « gladys your home assistant » and then a black screen and that’s it.
For the uninstall part, I go to the settings and when I click to uninstall the application, black screen and that’s it.

And as for the phone, I have a OnePlus 5 with Android 8.0.0 with an OxygenOS 5.0.2 layer.

I hope this problem can help you advance on your project and allow me to use this application that looks really great.

Hello everyone,

For information, I have exactly the same problem as @Adrien: same laptop, same configuration, same symptoms. I fear that it is therefore linked to the device or its configuration.
I haven’t had much time to look into it yet. As soon as I do, I will provide some information.

Hi!

@Bartabac

That’s weird though :thinking:
I just downloaded the apk and had no issues.. Did you try activating unknown sources before attempting the install?

@Adrien @Aimpi

Your problem is indeed related to the fact that you are on Android 8 (probably already on API 27). I made a mistake with the app icon, without going into technical details during its construction, the system calls the same icon in a loop when the app starts, which creates an overload and therefore a stop of the app by Android and this behavior only exists on Android 8!

The fix is supposed to be released in the next app update, but I’m a bit overloaded at the moment :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
I’ll try to deploy a build of the Apk file at least so you can use it this weekend :slight_smile:

Great, you handle it.
Thanks @LepetitGeek

I had the same problem once, it’s because the download wasn’t correct (I probably didn’t click in the right place…)

So I simply re-downloaded the apk file and that solved the problem (use the link from the first post, then click on « GladysBetaV1.4.5.apk » then click on the « download » button)

Hello @Adrien @Aimpi!

I had 5 minutes to generate an APK with the fix for Android 8 for you!
Available here I no longer have any errors, so let me know if it’s working for you too :slight_smile:

@Bartabac as @Retlaw said, I also think you’re downloading the wrong file, so try with the link I just posted above.

It’s good, it’s launching perfectly, thank you :wink:

:+1: @LepetitGeek
Nice…

Hello @NathanM!
And thank you :slight_smile:

So I’m right in the middle of it and I’ve made quite a few changes to the repo but I haven’t updated the topic yet ^^
In the meantime, the apk is available in the « release » tab, otherwise, if you can’t find it, a link is available a few comments above :slight_smile:
