frick everyone. First ifttt now stringify.

I'm about done with the home automation nonsense. Every time I start to enjoy a new technology someone comes along and screws it up.

Thanks Comcast

I hate you a little more today than I did yesterday and little less today than I will tomorrow

so long stringify

quote:

The Stringify app will vanish from the Play Store today, but it will continue working through the end of June. Comcast will delete all user data in the app when it disables the service at that time.

Ya saw that. I had just downloaded it a few days ago to do some sensor triggers.

You should have just switched to smartthings.

What did you need stringify for? Never found a need for it.

I agree, stingify allowed actions reliable on weather conditions (if temp drops below freezing activate heat lamp, if it rains disable sprinklers, etc...). I haven't been able to accomplish similar automations with anything else.
