About bilight

Source code available at https://github.com/jasperg/bilight
Please commit translations and feel free to contribute.

--

A simple Android application that controls the iBox lamp, RGBW, RGBWW and Dual-White lightbulbs at the same time, without ever having to switch "Remotes" like in the original Milight application. Only compatible with the Milight v6 protocol(!)

By manually mapping a port to an iBox device on your network, this can be used for "out of home" control of your lights.

Requirements:
You must have a Milight iBox1, iBox2 or ESP8266 WiFi bridge connected to your network.
This will *only* work with Milight v6 devices (released in 2016 or later).

Usage instructions:
Make sure your phone is connected to a WiFi network that has a Milight iBox1 or iBox2 connected.
The application can auto-detect your WiFi bridge, or you can add one manually. It has a simple interface to control all types of light bulbs at the same time.

Goede gebruiksvriendelijke app. Tegenover de Mi-light 3.0 app heeft geen overbodige permissies nodig om de lampen te besturen, heeft een duidelijke en responsive interface, gaat meteen naar de control panel in plaats elke keer de iBox te moeten selecteren bij openen en ondersteund toevoegen van iBox via IP adres in plaats van alleen met mDNS. Zou wel fijn vinden als Ik via de programma ook de "Night Light" en "Modus *" kon versturen. Night Light modus gaat net een stukje minder helder, is beter voor donker. Er zijn trouwens 8 zone lampen uit, zou die functionaliteit kunnen toevoegen, misschien optioneel? In ieder geval fijn dat deze app was gemaakt, de andere Milight app's werd bijna niets zinvols meer aan gedaan.

Thanks for the update it is working. I let Amazon Alexa (home automation) turn the lights on through autoinput app for tasker, I let open the app and push ON on my android TV box???????? What I need is a bridge app like rm bridge pro tasker plugin app to let alexa think the milights are philips hue. There is a habridge but for rooted or for Raspberrypi. If you can add a bridge like habrige would be awesome. Thanks for your amazing work????

The only one that works decent with a esp based controller and it's open source. Thank you very much.
