Go to the app store, in the updates tab

Thanks for the updated version only my geolocation doesn't work anymore (on 2 different iphones).
I already removed this option and recreated it but still no movement in the switch.

am i doing something wrong?

On my side the geo-location on the iPhone 7 Plus is also not really stable. Only now and then it detects that I've left home or just arrived. Also just upgraded to the latest iOS and hope to see some improvements. But today when arriving home, it was not detected by the Pilot App

Does it work if you trigger it by searching it in the iOS home screen?
To give it a try, swipe down, then type in the name of your device -> your shortcut should appear: tap on it to trigger it.

Let me know!

I've retried with new commands (was working with scene's before) now switched to switching on / off of a dimmer. Spoken commands as well as selecting the home screen - search - shortcut does not work. Is there more info I can gather somehow?
Tapping the on / off on the dimmer does work ok within the Pilot app

Can you please give the new version of Pilot (2.4.2) a try, see if it fixes your issue? You might have to delete your existing shortcuts first.

I removed the shortcuts and created new ones. It is still not working though

At the moment, I don't really know what is going on.
* Have you tried creating a shortcut with another device, see if it works with some of them?
* Do you have a local server address set up?
* Do you have multiple servers setup in Pilot?
* What kind of device are you trying to turn on?
* Have you tried reinstalling the app?

I have tried a couple, scene's as well as zwave switch and dimmers

* Do you have a local server address set up?
I have only the non-local server setup (which is actually local in my testcases) and functions well from within the pilot app

* Do you have multiple servers setup in Pilot?
No

* What kind of device are you trying to turn on?
Scene's (several), zwave dimmer and zwave switch

* Have you tried reinstalling the app?
Yes upon this request and then retried with zwave dimmer

Hi pvm,

Web-cam support in the Pilot app. Unfortunately this feature is not working anymore for some time. Any idea why not? In the previous version it was working perfectly. Today only a gray screen, see screen dump.

When I go to Domoticz via the web-browser, go to the web-cams they are all working fine without any problems. Then I expect them to work on the Pilot app as well.

Latest Pilot version here: working fine with live streams.

Maybe it helps when you check your settings of the server in the app: I remember vague (a couple of months ago) that I had to change/redo the settings to get it working again or maybe it was the certificate of the Domoticz-server......

Ok, thanks for the feedback. The web-cams are working on the Domoticz web application when I'm at home.
Certificate could indeed be an issue, when I browse to domoticz from a outside location I always get the error message about the the note trusted certificate. But the web-cams are working perfectly through the Domiticz web-browser interface.
How can i fix the certificate issue?

Anyone?

Yesterday my internet connection got disconnected. After restarting the modem, the connection was restored BUT I had a new (external) IP address.
So I changed the IP address in the Pilot apps on both my wife's and my own iPhone. Unfortunately the geofencing / switching doesn't work anymore. Manually switching works, so the IP address is OK, but what can I do to get the geofencing to work again?

Suggestions for the Ipilot app:

In the FAQ in the app the question is asked: Will there be an Apple Watch app > There is

Suggestion voor the apple watch. In the older apple watch OS you could make a shortcut on the frontscreen of your watch to the Pilot.
This is not possible anymore.

I bought the app but I want to use it on more IOS devices which are member of the family appstore account to share bought apps.
This did'nt work with the Pilot app so I have to buy for each family member. Is there an other option to bring over the license?
Alle connecting to the same domoticz server ofcourse?

Thank you very much for providing this amazing app. I'm only having one problem right now, my geolocation is not activating/deactivating the switch I made for it. It is just a simple switch dummy according to the instructions that was posted.
Geolocations or "locations" on my iphone is of course turned on at all times for Pilot in the iPhone location settings. I can do everything else with the app so I do have full access to domo from the app itself.
I've read that a few other people have experienced the same problem previously, but I have yet to find a solution to my problem.

I'm using a iPhone 7, latest stable version of Domo, (not using SSL encryption right now)

Thanks again!

Hi,

can you fix the watch app for selector switches? I'm seeing the base64 encoded levels on my watch. It would also be very neat to have a complications of Pilot that could be accessed directly from the watch face.

My wife and I have both version 2.4.5
Since last weeks geolocation doesn't work stable anymore (on 2 different iphones).
I already removed the app and re-entered all settings but still no movement in the switch.
If I flip the switch manually from outside my home then it works. So the connection with Domoticz is working
