Store listing

Full description

Bit Switch Local-first Wemo control — no cloud required for discovery and control. Full device support: switches, dimmers, light switches, Insight plugs (energy), motion sensors, outdoor plugs, Maker, and bridge. Built-in Wi‑Fi provisioning: scan networks, AES-encrypt password for device setup. What's New / Improvements Device discovery made robust via SSDP/UPnP (M‑SEARCH → setup.xml parsing) for reliable on‑network detection. Improved Wi‑Fi provisioning flow with AES-128-CBC password encryption (see Wemo crypto implementation). UI improvements: clearer Wi‑Fi setup dialog, error messages, password visibility toggle, and status indicators for connection/handshake. Better state handling and error reporting when controlling devices (GetBinaryState / SetBinaryState SOAP calls). Dark mode and theme refinements. Compatibility & Requirements Device and phone must be on the same Wi‑Fi network. Router must allow UDP multicast for SSDP discovery. Android SDK: runs on devices API 24+; tested up to target SDK 36. Wi‑Fi scanning requires location permissions (user must grant at runtime).
