Flic & Lifx delay
-
Recently I've got some Lifx bulbs, they are great and their response to control from Lifx mobile app is instant. I wanted to control them using physical buttons so I've decided to try Flic. Unfortunately, there is terrible delay between button press and bulb reaction about 3-4 seconds. Is this normal? It definitely feels wrong, broken. Can this be improved by using Flic hub? Or is this just the best Flic can do?

LAN API for Lifx is now working and it has great response (~1sec and light is up/down). BUT it does not allow to control scenes. Which is a little sad and would be great in the future..

Someone from Flic noted they're working to get Flic working with the LIFX LAN API:
