The ios beta test has expired and cannot easily be continued, but when I find time the next weeks I want to rewrite the app to learn a new technology as well.

@Mykle1 @Michii_M if you’re using android the app can still be used.

I sent the app to all that have sent me their emails in a private message. Here are also two screenshots that I extracted from my thesis.

I sent an email to all private messages I have received. I switched my mail provider a year ago and do not have longer the instructions. Maybe someone who tested it 2 years ago can send me them again :D

I’m sorry but I discontinued the apple developer programm due to its fee, so the app can no longer be tested for iOS.

Also this app was just a prototype and never went into active development.

This one?

Hey Mate,

thank you for filling out my survey, I really appreciate that.

Now it’s time for the first prototype.

Features:

Pairing: To pair your phone with your mirror, you have to scan the qr-code which will appear for a minute on the mirror.

Pull-to-Refresh: Once you paired your phone it’s time to get data in modules(available, installed) and region(this will override all changes you have done and not synced to the mirror yet).

Edit Modules: You can remove, reorder and edit modules. After you’re done it’s time to sync your changes to the mirror.

Sync: This will override your config.js file on the mirror. You have to restart your mirror manually.

Explanation of types:

Object: {}

Array: []

Integer: Numbers like 1, 3, 17, etc.

Float: Numbers like 1.25, 3.45, etc.

String: “This is just a text.”

Boolean: true, false

Installation:

First you have to install the module from here:
https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-Mobile

Then install the app on your phone.

Finally restart your mirror.

If you get in trouble or found a bug please submit an issue on github(don’t forget to name your phone os), so everyone can benefit from it. But it’s also possible to send me an email in english or german.

Kind Regards,

Felix
