    I assume that the Hello Smart app will then only send the entered data to the head unit, which saves the data and then starts the pre-entry climate control accordingly.


    Couldn't it be solved so that the app saves the data internally and sends the start command to the vehicle at the saved event time?


    In my layman's opinion, shouldn't this also be possible within your app?

    The version from hello smart sends the schedule immediately. And the car would show the schedule on its screen if you checked.


    Main benefits: if your phone or your car are out of network, the schedule would still happen

    Bonjour Andreas


    Merci


    I have seen in the code of hello smart that this option is coming. It’s just disabled. When I enabled it, it didn’t work with our cars. I suspect it’s coming in next smart OS


    As soon as the next OTA is out, we’ll test it and see if we can use this native way of doing it

    And also charging schedule:

    We have a less optimal idea: shortcuts. We will add shortcuts and you can make automation with your iPhone. But you won’t be sure your car will have received the command. I would trust the native solution better. Let’s hope it’s coming in next OTA

    Calm down, I wrote it here it and not in the App store, how can one score an App which I even can't download . 0 is not disrepectful its N/A or "no contest", Smartie

    Thank you everyone to defend us against this rudeness 😆. I suppose German humour is not only lost in translation but also between Germany regions sometimes


    I’m writing to let you know someone started a similar project on Android. He just posted yesterday on the other forum.


    He might welcome some support and encouraging. Go share your love Android users!

    I confirmed we were not supporting special characters in emails. I'm building 1.1.1 (72) in TestFlight and if all goes well, we'll publish on the App Store

    1.1.1(72) has been in TestFlight for a couple of hours and it seems to fix the issue.


    We now gave it to Apple for reviewing. It should hit the App Store in the coming hours. With a fix for special characters in email.

    Ich kann mich leider nicht einloggen mit meiner smart ID (ungültige Mailadresse oder Passwort) - kann es sein, dass die App "+" Zeichen in der Mailadresse nicht schluckt?

    it is possible. We tried to support special characters in passwords but not sure what we checked for emails.


    I'll make a test and let you know! if that's the issue, we'll fix it for next build. Are you in TestFlight?


    Can you just confirm you can connect with Hello Smart?

    Thumbs up and a huge thank you for your effort. Looks and feels great. Very responsive for AC and open/close. Feels way faster than the HelloSmart App itself.


    Is it possible to implement it to Apple Carplay surface? Would be great for monitoring e.g. the 12V battery or the liquids.

    Thank you!


    We will try. But Apple restricts strongly what can run on CarPlay so we are not sure it will be possible.

    We have other ideas to deliver before we get to trying CarPlay.

    Hi Dot,


    There's no library officially provided by Smart. They discuss it, but as any big corporation it might take a while.


    You will find a Python library made by DasBasti: https://github.com/DasBasti/pySmartHashtag he created it mostly for his project for Home Assistant: https://github.com/DasBasti/SmartHashtag .


    Personally, for Hello # we took example on the work from Marco at https://github.com/marco79cgn/ios-scriptable-widgets . I found it easy to experiment with his script in JavaScript directly in Scriptable on iOS and on Postman (also uses JS)


    If what you mean is having a common Backend between android and iOS, I don't think we would be able to create it in Hello # as everything is written directly in Swift and swift UI. While Android requires Library in Java, C++ or Kotlin. A C++ library is too much work for me, sorry and Java and Kotlin don't work on iOS.


    If Hello Smart is so slow, we think it's because they use a tool to make apps that works equally on Android and iOS, and their Adobe SDK. Hence slow on both. We are convinced that only a Native app like Hello # can offer the right responsiveness we all want.


    We would encourage an Android project to start in native, to make the best of it. Java or Kotlin. And focus on making the Android app the best app.

    We can still share good UI ideas, but the core components are too different.


    A lot of our coming efforts will be on Widget, Siri Shortcuts, Live Activity.... all those will take a lot of our free time and are really specific for iPhone.


    If someone starts a projects on Android, I would gladly help with answering any question and providing advice on what we went through. We can share critical parts of the code in Swift for them to rewrite for Android.


    I would suggest to start by showing all the data from the car just to master the access to the API and its signature encryption.


    I can share the Car Images and the model names. I made Proxy servers for caching them, so when a car stops being available from smart, we still have the images and names in our DB.
