No, it says ā€œEarly Accessā€. Did you try touching it and installing it?


#146

Yeah, Iā€™ve tried. It says itā€™s full.


#147

@ady624 @flyize Is WebCoRE presence sesnor/app working at all right now, or just concerns about battery?

It used to work for me but stopped at some point past few months. I just went into the settings and the green plus sign was there so I added a new sensor for me, but it didnā€™t show in ST app or ST IDE device list, I tries clearing cache and killing both the ST and webcore apps. Still no new presence sensor, and the green plus is gone in webcore settings.


#148

It is not working for me on Oreo. And the battery usage was CRAZY.


#149

@flyize - The android app needs to be revised to address certain changes in Oreo, and unless and until that happens, itā€™s not worth the trouble. Disappointing, because it was working so well for me with minimum battery usage in Nougat.


#150

Same here with the oddity after Oreo. Thanks for reminding me to check resources.


split this topic #151

15 posts were split to a new topic: Tasker Battery Drain (posts moved from WC presence thread by admin)


#152

This doesnt seem to work anymore. No matter what I try, I cannot add a new device for as a presence sensorā€¦ Must be updates tot he S8. Oh well. Was nice while it worked.


#153

it says beta


#154

I accidentally left the beta and now it says its fullā€¦ :frowning:


#155

guys just for your info, after the first time i installed the sensor according the instructions on the post i ddint show anything; so yes, you need to clear cache and data for the webcore app and re install the presence sensor and after that it will be fixed


#156

Is this thread is dead b/c everyone has the Android presence sensor working? or has it moved somewhere elseā€¦? I just donā€™t have it working but strangely enough I did get a update today at 8:09am.


#157

Mines working fine :slight_smile: sometimes it stops and I have to re open the app but other than that it works great :+1:


#158

Mine hasnā€™t worked since oreo. I now use Tasker to send my location data to ST


#159

Iā€™m with @infofiend, the update to Oreo effectively killed the app and thereā€™s been no overt effort to make the changes necessary to get it working again. So for now Iā€™ve had to uninstall it. Itā€™s unfortunate (if perhaps somewhat understandable) that since ST kidnapped @ady624 that development on all things webCoRE have slowed dramatically and in some instances appears to have stopped altogether. I had actually hoped the opposite would be true because his work is amazing. Thankfully, we have many dedicated minions moving webCoRE forward wherever they can.


#160

Yeah, Tasker works about 98% of the time. I highly recommend it if youā€™re running Oreo or above.


#161

Wait, what happened to @ady624


#162

ST poached him lolā€¦ hopefully he is busy writing webCoRE into STā€™s source code :crossed_fingers:


#163

We can all only hope :slight_smile: and partly/ mostly local :pray:
