So here is my first round of suggstions for improvement. 2) Skins/Themes - Just like the PC version of Snap-Link the look can be changed. Add skins or themes to snap-link. Add new skins/themes on each new update. Make the skins/themes saveable to each connection type. That way if a user chooses House A ... then the theme would look one way... and if they want to conenct to House B... then it can have another look. (we have a list of suggested types of themes too, just ask)
3) Advanced Settings - Settings Suggestions: a) Allow the user to setup how oftern the data is refreshed. b) Set Start up Page... (example: after connect, go to Control Vs Home)page. c) Control Phone Screen Time out and Backlight while the program is in use. d) Control how the program is to end/exit when the back key is pressed (Stay running, or close) ... and if running.... add more options... such as enable notify on event.
4) Widgets - This should be a given... however, it would be great to have a widget that would let the use know there home status right on the main screen of their phone. Also have it show some type of blinking red LED on the screen or the phone it self if there is a new logged event. I can keep going with this.
5) Complete camera control - Support for all HAI cameras, servers, and 3rd party... PTZ... and advanced settings.... Framerate, size, ect....
I will think of more later.... let me know if you guys like this stuff or not, and I will add more later.

1) Ditch 2 button clicks to select lighting settings. If I hit 25% don't make me hit ok too. It is redundant.
2) Put Temps in the Status Section 3) Allow hiding a lighting controller (on a long hold would be a good way to do it) 4) Security: Get rid of the 2 menus. Why do I hit security and then hit security again to get a pop up menu? Would be much nicer to have a screen with buttons I can choose. 5) Make the security key format in the setup match the Omni format. Please use hyphens. Those are my initial thoughts... |

it would be nice to have a slider for lighting control instead of discrete buttons--25, 50, 75, 100 doesn't give me enough flexibility.

I like how the Security Item in the Security area turns read when Armed. Is there a way to make the main menu item turn red instead so you can tell the status from the main screen instead of needing to click through other menus?

When you change security modes and it asks for a code to be entered it would be nice if a keypad was on the screen in the app instead of using the keys on a droid pro or an on screen keyboard.
Having the option to hide flags and buttons. Maybe a long touch for hiding options. Lighting controls similar to the SuperLink software out there. Reduces number of touches and allows more control. "Favorites" tab from the main screen where a user can put their most common tasks for quicker access. |
