The app supports the following features via Widgets and Tasker plugins (In-App Purchases):
•Control your SmartThings automated home from Tasker and Widgets
•Toggle devices with the Switch capability
•Simple interface for controlling a device
•Available device commands are automatically pulled from the SmartThings API
•Send standard commands like on and off
•Send commands with parameters like setLevel(Level0-100, dimOverXSeconds) for capable Dimmer Switches
•Pass Tasker variables to many of the SharpTools Tasker plugins
•Subscribe to Thing status changes and react to them in Tasker
•Query the current status of your devices in Tasker
•Simple interface for changing modes
•Subscribe to Mode changes and react to them in Tasker
•Query the current Mode in Tasker
•If there is a particular device you would like to control, let me know. I would love to expand the beta test with more devices
Additionally, the base SharpTools app provides the following features:
•Control your Things, Modes, and Hello Home Phrases using the new Material design!
•Authorization to access devices you approve through the SmartThings API*
•Initial download/configuration of your Things and Phrases
If you find that the app is missing an expected feature, let me know using the Send Feedback menu option inside the app and I will try to include the feature where possible. Also note that while the base application is free, the Widgets and Tasker plugin are each available as an In-App Purchase (IAP).
