[App][Pro] Homey Tracks

Hi Adrian,

I was trying your app to see if I could replace the old own tracks app. However, internally I’m using self-signed certificates which triggers an error. Would it be possible to implement a switch to turn off the certificate validation when setting up a mqtts connection?

I have published a new test version that has extra Connection settings to either add a certificate or Accept any certificate.

Thanks for the update (and app)! It’s working now :slight_smile:

Hi Adrian.

Thanks for the app. Sorry if ive missed this but is it normal for Own Tracks to generate 2 tags for me and my family users? One is from Own Tracks and one is from Homey,

So wherever we move, there are 2 icons for each person.

Or have i missed a step?

Thanks

I think that is normal, if you mean the blue dot that OwnTracks shows and the avatar that Homey shows?
OwnTracks updates it’s blue dot in real-time on the phone, but the avatar is updated when Homey gets the message and replies.

Hello, I just tryed your app and it looks realy usefull.

I have some questions. I made a quick flow:

In the time line apears no message. Why?

If I go by car there appear waypoints nearly a kilometer away from my route.

In the device info presence alarm the red writing is hard to read. Can you keep that in white?

Where can I delete routes?

Thanks for your answers.

When you are home, does the device show you are home?

Could you explain what you mean?

Unfortunately, that is a built in Homey function that I can’t control.

Open the app settings - Map page and click on Filters

Click a My Journeys button for the user

In the list of journeys, click the trash can icon

Thank you for the quick answer.

Yes it shows I’m at home.

At the end of the route it shows a waypoint far left from my route.

Could you open the Filter, select that route under My Journeys and then click on Copy track points.
The send me a direct message and paste the coordinates in the message. I will look at what points were logged to see if there is a sorting order problem as it looks like there are a couple of strange lines.
Also, if that really was a 22 km, the waypoints seem to be a long way apart. Can you check the GPS on your phone is set up to use high accuracy.

Are you connected using HTTP or MQTT?
