We reviewed the SmartRules app at the start of this year and found it powerful and easy to use.
Now developers obycode have released v2.0 with a raft of new features and switched to an in-app purchase model to allow users to try out the app before paying for it.
Check out all the improvements below…
What’s new in version 2.0 – We’ve switched to freemium! now you can try out one guideline for free, then unlock limitless guidelines with an in-app purchase*. We’ve also added a bunch of new features, cleaned up the look and feel, and squashed some bugs.
Added “and stays that way”! This lets you set off a guideline after something has changed and stayed that way for some time. For example, “Front door opens and stays that way for 5 minutes” or “Motion ends and stays that way for 10 minutes”. We’re thrilled about this one!! It’s really handy.
All fields from your guidelines now show up in the guideline screen, and no unsightly shrunken text! See updated screenshots for an example.
When editing a rule, it maintains the old values and jumps straight to the field you tapped! We know this was a major inconvenience for many.
Rearrange your rules! This long-desired feature lets you organize your guidelines in any purchase you like to help keep them organized. just long-press on a guideline and relocation it wherever you’d like. The purchase in the app also defines the purchase of QuickTap guidelines on the Today screen and the Apple Watch!
Improved the look and feel of the Today screen (see updated screenshot)
When a guideline runs, it now shows in the SmartThings app’s messages list to help you track what’s been going on.
There is now a confirmation before deleting a guideline to avoid accidental deletions.
Added a link to easily reach our new and improved help page directly from the app.
Fixed some layout issues on smaller devices and devices with large text and zoomed settings.
Fixed repeat guideline executions on guidelines with triggers like “Temperature goes below 34”
Swipe to delete for rules, triggers, conditions, and actions.
