new rules on wemo
« on: May 11, 2016, 05:59:41 pm »
anyone tried creating new rules within their android wemo app since the last update?  If so, did it work?   I have found several users having problems with creating new rules, including me,  and was wondering if it is a common problem.  Wemo community was unable to help.

Apparently there's an issue with the Android app since the last update. I'm not sure if Wemo fixed it yet.
I use IOS for my Wemo needs, and I have not had any problems with creating rules. With the recent app update and the firmware update, I noticed things are a lot quicker in the app.  It used to take several seconds when I open the app to see all of my devices and whether they are currently on or off. Now I can see all of my Wemo devices and their current state almost instantly (less than 1 second.)

In the wemo community someone used iOS and had no problems creating rules when he could not on the android.    I now wish I had not gotten rid of my old iphone last year  :-(

Yep, old iPhones and iPads are handy to have around for use as remotes, media players, and just about anything but as a phone.  When we give a kid a tablet to watch movies on, it is always the ol' iPad 1.
