I’ve been really impressed with the versatility of Flic buttons in my smart home setup. They’re perfect for controlling devices without waking the house with voice commands. However, I always felt limited by the three default actions: single click, double click, and hold. I had five actions set up, but I wanted to push the limits further to get more out of these buttons. Here’s how I unlocked three additional actions using the Chronograph app and Homey advanced flows. First, I installed the Chronograph app. It’s a fantastic tool for managing timers and automations. Then, I created an advanced flow to handle the timing and actions. The setup works like this: 1. When I double-click the Flic button, it checks if a 15-second timer is running. 2. If the timer isn’t running, it turns on a light at 10% brightness with a warm color. 3. If the timer is running, it increases the brightness to 100% with the brightest color. 4. If the timer has expired, it turns the light off entirely. To make this work seamlessly with the Flic button, I had to create a simple flow that triggers the advanced flow when the button is pressed. It’s a bit of a workaround, but it gets the job done! I then connected the Flic button to Homey through the Flic mini-hub. After a quick refresh, the new actions were recognized, and I was able to assign them to the button in the Flic app. This setup has been a game-changer for me. It allows me to control my lights in three distinct ways with just one button. If you’re looking to get more out of your Flic buttons, I highly recommend exploring theChronograph app and advanced flows.
