Ariela - Home Assistant Android Client - Updates Thread

Hi Ionut

Perhaps a good idea to add some short explanation in the app on what the difference is between WiFi and GPS tracking mode. I forgot what the difference is and can’t immediately find it

Also are Period and Position settings working together? E.g.

period: 15min
position: 300m

Is every 15min the position checked and updated
or
If some API tells Ariela that the position has changed 300m, the update is sent
or
every 15min the position is checked, if changed more than 300m the update is sent

Edit:

I noticed I now have 2 entities for my phone, any ideas why? Seems like the _2 is the one that is being updated. Strange thing is, in the entity registry, only the _2 is shown…

As you can see the source_type is set to gps even though I am using WiFi track mode

I had duplicates too. Delete integration and force credentials from app

Ah so that’s how you fix the webhook error, in the end I tweaked the config files a bit to get it working again on one of the phones

Is camera support working now?
I have a camera that refuses to show up in Ariela and not sure if only specific camera types are supported?

P.s absolutely amazing work on this app, every half year/year i’d check in to see what client apps were available for HA and end up uninstalling them all because they weren’t quite good enough. Ariela is the first & only one that has managed to stay.

Ionut · July 18, 2019, 8:22am

You mean camera’s from HA or camera from phone that register via mqtt to HA?
If you had / have problems with camera from HA, just send me the Ariela logs and i will check out. Thank you.

Thank you very much, i am glad to hear that

I am having an issue with the app not reporting that I am home. I am connected to my home wifi which I have set, also the map shows me at my house, I assume that’s using GPS location. Any ideas?

Ionut · July 20, 2019, 1:02am

Try to set wifi &zones in Ariela - settings - device tracker.

pstapley · July 20, 2019, 3:04pm

I have, it’s set to my home wifi which I am currently connected to, yet it says I am away.

Ionut · July 20, 2019, 4:37pm

Please send me Ariela logs and i will check it out. Thank you.

pstapley · July 21, 2019, 2:58pm

Sent, thanks!

Hi, thanks for your hard work with this app! I’m wondering how I can display these history graphs? I have a standard lovelace history card to show watts from a smart plug. it doesn’t display on the main screen, or even when I click the entity itself for more detailed info.

Ionut · July 23, 2019, 3:55am

I have history graphs lovelace cards support on my TODO list

Ionut · July 25, 2019, 8:37am

In the zones menu, when the dropdown is ‘open’ I am unable to see the text, when opening the dropdown and holding the arrow icon to open it, you can see it though (see screenshots below).

I once changed from default to dark theme and then back to default. My switches are also still black and the settings menu seem odd as well:

Ionut · July 25, 2019, 8:48am

Ariela is not yet compatible with dark mode set in the phone. I have that task on my TODO list.

Skye · July 25, 2019, 9:19am

I used the dark theme from within Ariela, Settings > UI > Theme

Currently it is set to default (the screenshots I have taken are with the default theme). Is this correct then? I don’t believe the menus should be black when the theme is set to default, or should they?

Ionut · July 25, 2019, 9:50am

You also have dark (black theme) enabled in your phone which was enabled from phone settings.
LE: i will add a method that will not going to use system theme in the Ariela.
