This action allows you to control your camera on a whole new level!
You can choose between taking a picture or recording a video.
On ANDROID:
This can be done instantly, so when you use Flic, your camera immediately takes a photo or start recording video (Background Mode). You will not even see a preview on your phone. Just click and snap.
You can also choose to open the camera window first so you get a preview of what your camera sees (Preview Mode).
On iOS:
In iOS you can use the camera in external apps but you use need to open the app manually first in order to snap pictures with Flic. Due to Apple regulations, there’s no “Background Mode” in iOS.
IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER:
• When using the background mode in Android, you will not have a preview of what the camera sees. This means that the camera is only being controlled by the trigger (click, double click or hold) that you assigned to it. The assigned trigger will take a picture or start/stop your video recording. When you take a picture or start/stop a video, you will hear a small sound.
Android:
• Photo/Video
• Front-/Back camera
• Background-/Foreground mode
• 3 Different flash modes
iOS:
• Snap pictures in an open app.

In Sweden, we have moved on from the year 1995, and most of us don’t have those old egg clocks. And to be honest, why would we? The cell phone took over the time keeping and it was an impossible task to make those round white egg clocks trendy.
Now we’re aiming to take time keeping in your kitchen to the next level. Preset the length of time it takes to cook your perfect egg, stick a Flic where you can use it and press it every time you put your eggs in the pot.
One click will start your timer and press it again to turn the timer off. Simple!

Bad date? Never fear, Flic is here! We can help you get out of it. This action will open an incoming call view and start playing your ringtone. The action expires after 20 seconds, so you’d better get a wiggle on. To end it earlier – tap the screen or your Flic again.
TO SET IT UP: By default, a standard picture of “Johan” calling you on a Swedish Sony device will be shown. But if you don’t have a Swedish Sony device, or know Johan, take a screenshot of your incoming call screen and use it by clicking “Select file” below this text. On some devices, that screenshot needs to be rotated. If that is the case, enable the “Needs rotation” option.
Et voila! Your screenshot will be shown when you trigger this action. (Hopefully it fools the bad date you’re trying to get away from.)

IFTTT (If This Then That) is probably one of the most useful functions you can think of. It basically means you can use your Flic to trigger web-based actions, and IFTTT has A LOT of them.
To use it, simply make an account on www.ifttt.com and find the Flic user. Here you can authorize your Flic account and tell the user which Flics you want to listen for. Then you can define what you want to happen when the IFTTT server registers a Flic action. Maybe send NASA’s picture of the day to your email or start your garden irrigation system?
In this application, set the IFTTT action on the Flic(s) you set up in the previous step and you are ready to go.
PLEASE NOTE: This function requires a continued internet connection for your Flic(s) to speak with the IFTTT server.

Add Flic buttons to your Smart Things app, Samsung's smart home automation app and trigger routines, to take your smart home to the next level.
Haven’t we all wished for synchronized wireless speakers with an amazing sound? Well, say hello to Sonos. To configure and trigger your Sonos speakers, you first need to add them to this application in the provider view.
When at least one Sonos speaker is found, it will appear right under this wall of text.
TRIGGER ONE SONOS:
Pick the Sonos speaker you want to trigger and decide how you want to trigger it. And that’s it. You’re done!
TRIGGER INDIVIDUAL SPEAKERS:
1. Go to our Flic app -> providers -> Sonos and find all your speakers. We don’t get any information about the names of the speakers so you need to add these yourself to be able to distinguish between them. (Maybe make an action with the speaker, and see which one it triggers in real life.)
2. Go to your Sonos app where all your speakers are listed. Make sure the speaker you want to trigger doesn’t belong to a user.
3. Pick the Sonos speaker in the Sonos action (Flic app) and assign it to a Flic trigger. Repeat from step (1) with your next speaker(s)
TRIGGER A GROUP:
So we are not using an SDK for this action. Instead we are mimicking the signals the official Sonos app sends to its speakers. That makes it hard to give the Flic app total control of the speakers. Instead you have to configure this the right way. No worries though. You only have to do this once. (Thanks to our backer Jordan for the following information.)
1. Go to our Flic app -> providers -> Sonos and find all your speakers. We don’t get any information about the names of the speakers so you need to add these yourself to be able to distinguish between them. (Maybe make an action with a speaker, and see which one it triggers in real life.)
2. Go to your Sonos app where all your speakers are listed. Here you should see a button called “GROUP” on each of
the speakers. Press this button and remember what speaker you grouped onto. Now add all the speakers you want to be toggled to this user.
3.
In the Sonos action in the Flic app, only trigger the speaker that was the original member of the user. Now when you trigger this action, all the Sonos speakers included in this user should be affected.

We all love Spotify. This fellow Swedish company made it possible for all of us to listen to our favorite music in a blink of an eye. Their client supports actions such as creating your own playlist, searching for related artists and saving songs for offline usage. And now, the time has come to make it even more amazing.
Flic supports 4 sub actions that we think all you music lovers should have in at the click of a button: Play a track, Play a random track and Save the current track. This action could also be combined with the “Navigate Music”- and/or the “Volume Control” action for improved music control.
Track:
Search for a Spotify track and pick it from the drop down list displayed under the search bar. Every time you press your Flic, this track will be played.
Random: Feeling lucky? This sub action will play a random Spotify track. Works great when combined with the sub action “Save”.
Save:
Heard a track you really want to listen to again? This sub action will save the currently playing track to your “Songs” list in Spotify. You need to enable Device Broadcast Status in the Spotify app settings.
DISCLAIMER: Spotify compatibility on iOS is currently in beta.
Remember that if you want to control basic music navigation such as play/pause, next/previous, you can find these functions under “Navigate Music”.
