What ??! … sorry, but maybe something escapes me.
Attention, I really appreciate the Vera system, also for the excellent service, but this thing of rejoicing in the Google Home on VERA system, I really don’t understand it;
It’s months , or maybe years, that other brands use GH …
I personally use IFTTT for the commands in Italian on Vera with my “GH mini” and now … the “exciting” news of the plugin on Vera comes out. … “only in English!” … and has problems too !!
Wait up! … it would be like rejoicing in a race for having arrived last and waving the wrong flag too!
Please correct me if I’m wrong
Where do you have this information from? I’m not sure if it’s present anywhere else other than the briefly slipped mention yesterday, through a post but corrected in less than two minutes.
@Sorin, this is still a bit unclear to me. In the Q&A it is suggested that some are able to use the service/app while others do not see the app in Google Home. Is my understanding correct? If so then what causes this? I’ am asking because of my Alexa experience for which I have to use a fake US address to be able to use the Vera skill (living in the Netherlands).
There I get to select “Send to device”, which I have tried (i.e. I send the “Vera plugin” to my GH device), and get different results. Sometimes my GH device said “Sorry I cannot help you with that”, sometimes “This device is not setup”, and sometimes nothing. Then there is the “Set up” button. When I click “Set up” i just get to the normal Google Home screen, where I can’t find anything if I search for Vera.
The fact that the app here says “[test]” indicates that it is not publicly released and will only work from the account of the developer who built it and specific accounts he/she has shared it with.
Let’s wait please. Vera App is approved and Google will sort this out on their end. There’s no controversy here.
We’re having the same issues as you, and we’re using the developer account, hence the “test” app.
How about we stop aimlessly waiting and get on their case. You should be calling and emailing every hour. Their mistake is making your company look bad. Who’s the contact, PM me and I’ll call all day and night. All we’ve done is wait…and nothing is coming of it. They have more engineers working on the google search logo than your entire company; this should not take days to solve. Motivate them.
If people would stop asking the same questions instead of reading the full thread and realize that the issue has been already been addressed perhaps Sorin would not have to repeat what he has already stated. Do not assume that you know what is going on behind the scenes. Hounding Google on the hour is not the answer and more likely will piss them off.
In Brazil, GH was recently launched and goes through adjustments, as most controllers and devices are in English, GH Brasil made it easier for us Brazilians, we have the option to rename the devices and commands to Portuguese.
