The home screen

One dashboard for everything

Every device you own on one page, live, with no folders to open and no accounts to switch between.

Flick's All view on a desktop, showing dimmers, plugs with live energy readings, a thermostat, a door lock, sensors, a siren, a wall remote and four scene tiles
The All view on a desktop. Every tile is live and interactive — the sliders dim, the setpoint adjusts, the lock unlocks.

Most home apps start by asking which system you want to look at. Flick starts with your house. Open it and you get one page — the All view — with a tile for every device you have chosen to put there, no matter which hub or account it came from.

Everything is directly usable

Tiles are not shortcuts to detail screens. What you see on the dashboard is the control itself:

  • Drag a dimmer’s slider and the light dims as you drag.
  • Tap + or − on the thermostat and the setpoint moves.
  • Tap Unlock on the lock tile and the lock turns.
  • Tap a scene tile and the scene runs.

A plug that meters power shows its watts, kilowatt-hours, volts and amps right on the tile. A door sensor shows Closed and its battery level. A motion sensor shows Clear or Motion. Nothing is more than one tap deep.

Three ways to look at the same home

Along the top there are three views, and they all show the same devices:

ViewWhat it does
AllYour custom layout — the tiles you picked, where you put them.
By RoomSections per room, in reading order, with anything unassigned grouped at the end.
By TypeSections per kind of device: dimmers, colour lights, plugs, thermostats, locks, sensors, scenes.

All is the one you arrange by hand. The other two are generated for you, so a device you add to a hub shows up there immediately without any tidying up.

Big screens get more, not bigger

The grid measures the window rather than guessing from the device type, so the same layout logic fills a phone, a tablet in either orientation, and a desktop window you resize while using it. On a wide screen you get more tiles per row — not the same three tiles stretched out.

Pull down anywhere on the dashboard to refresh, and Flick re-reads every connected hub at once.
