Release Notes for v3.1.0 (2021.06.04)

 

Overview

 

It turns out that Apple requires a multicast entitlement to be able to run code that, for instance, discovers ONVIF devices. But that’s worked fine for years. But it also doesn’t work on some of my devices. I eventually figured out that I needed that entitlement. It’s strange that it works flawlessly on some devices. Whatever.

 

This release includes overhauled SmartThings support, allowing for more customizable event actions and automatic device discovery.

 

Corresponding with this app release, the backend will give a free, automatic, one month upgrade to each new user account. My hope is that by being able to experience the upgrades, people will be more inclined to pay for them after the month long trial.
