Start flow with a button in the app

Jesper

Since the voice recognition does not work so good now and when for example you are watching television and there is a lot of noise in your living room you will be unable to trigger flows. Is it not possible to make a option to have buttons in the app to trigger flows.

For example: I want to make a button movie time so when I press that button in the app on my telephone or on the webbased app it will dim the lights, starts the playstation, starts my home cinema set (z5500), starts the television and switchs it to hdmi 3.

@Emile ; In the flow editior there is already a test flow button. Could you also make it possible to have that same test flow button in the app for each flow that's made (or let people select which flows they want to initiate from the app). Those buttons of course should have than the name of the flow which they will trigger.

This would be far more convenient than a klikaanklikuit remote which only has a few buttons and no description on the buttons. Furthermore, almost everybody always has his phone within reach.

Hi,

I'm also looking for a way to trigger my flows with something else than voice recognition. I rather have an app or website where I see all my flows and can click them.

Is this (already) possible somehow?

If you have an iPhone install HomeKit, a nice interface and all options to make buttons the way you like (if you have an iPhone)
