There should be no new issues with the new update as it was tested by Authinx and myself.
However thata not to say the developer didn't add something after my test.

[brobin]

Will the new update include an Alexa skill?

[Tuicemen]

I doubt it a skill is a separate piece of code.the developer was focused more on bug issues specifically timer issues.

[Tuicemen]

Looks like there is a issue with the IOS version of the app so there is going to be a small delay of the update.
I'm not sure what apple wants changed in the app.

[scali2018]

What are the new features and fixes in the upcoming release?  Is there new firmware as well?

[Tuicemen]

There is a new firmware I suspect you'll see that first.
As for bug fixes the DST timer issue is fixed  those experiencing wrong dusk dawn times should also be fixed.
As for adds I never seen any in the test version I tried. However I had asked that while looking at timer issues adds related to timers were considered from the wish list. What the developer actually added if anything remains to be seen

So....   the 18th of which month/year?

The issue seems to be something introduced with the new IOS which makes it difficult to sync, the Android update has been ready for over a month.
Why Android users have to wait for this is beyond my understanding. Each OS version update needs to be submitted to different locations.

Especially considering that the Android version is much more kludgey than the iOS version with the stupid time sync errors constantly.

Yes, we are being penalized due to an Apple OS upgrade.

I fired off another email asking clarification as to why Android users have to wait for the IOS fix.
The reasoning given was the firmware update that is required.

It is common to both OSes, which could create more issues for iOS users running the older iOS. Since there isn't a new iOS app version to utilize it I suspect it would only throw nag pop ups like my test version does right now but I could be wrong.

I thought we were scheduled for June 18th and then had an add-on which was "A small delay".

So....   the 18th of which month/year?   

FWIW, there is definitely a bug with dimming and timers but I'm waiting to fully report until the FW/App gets replaced.

[ceedee]

I'm running the latest FW and app (.24) on Android, and the "history" function is still broken. Disappointed.

[Tuicemen]

I just received an email that the next version of the app and firmware was released.
However this was done by a junior developer (I'm told) so no testing was done on the IO version.
The new firmware should be picked up by the new app version.
 I'm told the firmware update will fail if ones phone goes to sleep while installing so some may have to disable their sleep time out or increase the duration before sleep.

[ceedee]

Thanks for the update!  I assume you meant iOS...so, no release imminent?

Classic new-millenium biz model...release with buggy beta SW, collect revenue, and hope for the best.

Nice to know that we only deserve a junior developer  I'm more than a little frustrated.  Let's hope that things move more quickly in the future.
