Flic 2 - the wireless smart button - adds another major smart home platform to its lineup of supported integrations. Flic users can now control Samsung SmartThings with their buttons - together with recently announced Apple HomeKit and Amazon Alexa.
Flic releases a Software Development Kit for the Flic Hub and a device management platform. Advanced users can now write their own code on the Flic Hub. At the same time, businesses can deploy and monitor large installations of Flic Hubs and Flic buttons remotely. The dual release marks the completion of all delivery promises in the successful Flic 2 Kickstarter campaign.
