When trying to add and save an automation to my dimmer switch “on” button, there is a “loading” icon rotating in the corner. After a couple of minutes the app crashes.
Tried to reproduce this on the Windows app, I can save a single action to the switch button, but when trying to add “wait” time I have to purchase a license (which I already have for iOS). The single action saves and works properly though.
Well, I managed to get it to work. First tried the “Reset” and “Manage in other app” buttons in the official Hue app. Didn’t work.
Then removed the switch from official Hue app and then reset the switch using a paperclip. Added it to official Hue again and pressed the “Manage in other app” button. After that I could setup automations in Hue Essentials.
Had the same problem. All saved automations on all ny switches disappeared.
I removed them from official Hue app, added the switches through Hue Essentials and then it worked.
