IFTTT/DO/Tasker/Zapier Integration
There are so many automation "links" out there, that there is no need to integrate FLIC with hundreds of different actions. If it is a trigger in IFTTT(or whatever), then it can trigger all kinds of things.

Pause/Play Sonos
When I am home, I play Sonos most of the day, either with Spotify or Tune In. I normally control this from my iPhone. Problem is, when my phone rings I need to figure out how to pause Sonos and answer the phone, which is hard to do all from the iPhone. I want to pause/play Sonos with Flic so I can answer my phone.

Play a specific song one establishes on Spotify
I try to make fun out of ordinary moments in life so everytime there's a romantic situation playing out, someone talking about a random rendezvous, or just a couple making out I always get my phone out and play 'Careless Whisper' by George Michael (which starts with the Sax part) and everybody just breaks in laugh.
So if you guys can do this I would certainly make use of this feature to bring my 'Careless Whisper game' to a whole new level.
Try it now with your computer/phone and you'll see how fun it is.

shortcut
To be able to add a shortcut of a programmed action on the mobile desktop.
In case I dont have access to my button, easily open the phone and tap on a shortcut action that emulate a touch of the button.
2 votesHi,
This can already be achieved with “Tasks” in the app. Add a task and it will be accessible from the notification centre. You can also assign a Flic button to operate the same task.

Flic station/hub connected to the flics
Offer a station/hub/bridge for flics that is connected via bluetooth to the buttons and to the services the flics would do connected to the phone. The hub should use the settings set on your phone app.
So you do not have to have your phone near the flics to make the actions work.
