Hi, I see in github a folder named IOS, means you are working on a IOS version?

You are right.

I need a small group of testers to register in Internal Testing Group for early releases testing. Responsibilities:

  • After each update, clear app data completely
  • Perform quick test of all functionality
  • Perform deep testing of new functionality according to release notes
  • Report issues if found
  • Do all this in 2-3 days after app update
    You can ask to join at HA Client Discord server

Hi, is there any plan that this app will support notification? Like iOS app?

I will do it

Notifications is coming in next release - 0.6.0

Love this app so far. As most people have said itā€™s very clean and simple. Any plans to introduce location tracking? Yet to find a decent app for this on Android.

Have you tried Life360? Iā€™ve been using it for over a year and it has done quite well tracking my entire family. Thereā€™s a custom component for it here: https://github.com/pnbruckner/homeassistant-config

Location tracking is coming somewhere in 0.7.0 I think thanks to new HA component ā€œMobile appā€.

amazingly low. I have a Pixel XL and notice no difference between running Life360 and not.

Thanks for your work. It is such a quick and simple application that gives a chance to use HA to any people unfamiliar with programming and complex technology.

I use gpslogger on all household android phones. Gpslogger reports back to HA via a webhook and gpslogger also logs to an OpenGTS server. I never have to worry about the app mysteriously stopping or battery drain on these Galaxy S7s. Been running for many months with no interruption.

@PlayedIn could you please point to the app in PlayStore? There are a lot of them with the same nameā€¦ Thanks.

Hi all. HA Client was removed from Google Play by Google due to some violation. Iā€™ll try to fix this, but donā€™t know when.

Very annoying. But this application can be downloaded from where else?

Latest stable version is here: https://github.com/estevez-dev/ha_client/releases/tag/0.5.0

The app is back to Google Play
