homescreen quick access - Peter - 15.02.2016
Hello everyone,
I have an idea: would it be possible to make a button-like app, or widget that one would have on his homescreen on iphone/ipad/android device that would do one of the CF commands just by taping on it, without opening an actual app? I can think of various scenarios where this would be very helpful, for example a button/app that will run "I am home" scene, or just turn on/off the main light in my bedroom.
Thanks for any notes to this topic.

Should be pretty simple with Android since you can install external APK files. You can create a widget for Android home screen which acts like a button and sends commands via HTTP requests.
iOS is another story due to Apple policies

In a very simple way this could be done with IOS too using the remote services, http://openrb.com/docs/remote.htm

yes, but is there a way how to kill/minimize the web browser automatically after it sends such a command?
