Netatmo update fixes minimum/maximum outdoor temperature issue and supports rain gauge

2014-04-18 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello Netatmo users,

 

I received a message from Netatmo regarding Voiceover not reading outdoor
minimum and maximum temperatures any more since the last update. The issue
has been fixed and the update was submitted to Apple, it should be available
next week.

 

I was also told that the new rain gauge measurement will be correctly read
by Voiceover, here is the reply I received:

 

Hi Sieghard

 

There is indeed an issue regarding min and max temperature values for
Voiceover on version 1.4.0. It has been fixed and will be available again on
1.4.1 release available next week. Thanks for reporting this issue we were
unaware of.

 

As for the rain gauge support for Voiceover, the values are correctly read
on version 1.4.0 but the labels are wrong (reading temperature instead of
last hour rain, etc.) The labels will be appropriate on version 1.4.1

I am considering getting netatmo.  Is all of it accessible with
voiceover?  What do you find most helpful to you?  I was checking out
their website and really getting excited about it.  Can you run your
thermostat with your IPhone?

RE: Netatmo update fixes minimum/maximum outdoor temperature issue and supports rain gauge

Hi Marianne,

The Netatmo Weather Station is the product I have been posting about and it
is not a thermostat at all. I believe Netatmo also does make a WiFi enabled
thermostat, but it is only available in Europe, actually, I think it's
available in France where Netatmo is located and maybe in Germany and some
other countries, but not in all European countries. To my knowledge Netatmo
is not planning to introduce the thermostat to the North American market
where a number of WiFi thermostats already exist.

If you are looking for an accessible thermostat to control your heating/air
conditioning via an iOS app you should check out www.RadioThermostat.com. I
own 3 of their WiFi thermostats, they work great and I have had them for I
think at least 2 or 3 years now and they work flawlessly. The app is
accessible and you can buy the thermostat for $139 on the website, but I
have seen posts from others who own it and who say that in the States you
can often get it for $99 at Home Depot and of course it's also available on
Amazon.

The Netatmo weather station consists of an indoor and outdoor module which
measure temperature, humidity, air pressure and they also keep track of
indoor and outdoor minimum and maximum temperatures for the day (from
Midnight to Midnight) and the indoor module also measures CO2 level and
noise. You can add up to 3 additional indoor modules for $79 each to put in
other rooms in your house or the basement if you wish and the newest item
which is just now starting to ship is a rain sensor which keeps track of
aily rainfall. It is also $79 and the main weather station is $179, that's
your primary indoor module which has the WiFi connectivity built-in and the
one outdoor module.

A wind sensor is coming and while this is not a cheap device, it does work
well and Netatmo has done an excellent job to make the readings accessible.
As far as I know it is also the only weather station for iOS and you can
also access the information by logging into your account on the Netatmo
website. However, it's much easier and more accessible via the app.


Best regards,
Sieghard

Thank you.  I did see the thermostat link on their website but I
really am most interested in the rain guage.  Other features will be
great too.  I plan to ask my sons to purchase it for Mother's Day and
my birthday.  I appreciate all of the information.

2014-04-18 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
No problem, just keep in mind that the rain gauge by itself won't do
anything, you do have to have the main weather station first, if you get
that and the rain gauge it would be a $258 investment and I think shipping
in the States is $8, so a total of $266.
