Thanks, everyone, for your help. I finally figured out the problem - a conflict with another program. Regarding control vs. status, both work fine. Why/when would you choose one over the other, in this case, why did you recommend control?

Thanks for your help.

Yes to both.

Answer to your first question is yes. It did/does work without this line. In fact, this is a copy of the program with a lot of the bloat removed just to facilitate testing. Yes, value is 1.

I configured the switch to enable the paddle to be used as a scene button and I confirmed via the button status that a double-tap is indeed recognized as "Fast On" (and that the light doesn't actually turn on). However, when I insert that into my program, either directly or as a variable, the program doesn't work (motion is not detected). I'm attaching a simplified version of the program that I'm using to test.

I'm looking for some ideas on the simplest and cleanest and most reliable way to do the following: I have a motion sensor on my porch (https://www.getzooz.com/zse70-outdoor-motion-sensor/). When motion is detected, I have a program that turns on the porch lights (fast on, night only) and also sends me a notification. I have the dimmer switch for those lights right near the porch door (https://www.getzooz.com/zooz-zen77-s2-dimmer/). I want to utilize the double-tap feature of the switch to enable/disable the motion sensor programmatically (via parameter 1) when I am going in and out of the porch door so it ignores my presence. I'm not an expert programmer by any means, and I don't know how to specify the double-tap. I don't even know if that's the best approach, but I would like to somehow utilize that switch because of its convenience. Any and all advice would be appreciated.

Found the problem. Boneheaded move on my part - I was restoring the wrong backup (from the phone, not the one I copied over from the tablet). Sorry to waste your time.

Yes, both Android.

I'm running UD Mobile on a tablet and a phone. It took some time to get it configured on the tablet and get everything organized and looking the way I want. How do I get that same configuration on my phone? I assumed I could create a backup on the tablet, transfer that over to the phone and then do an import. That doesn't work. When I try the restore, I get this message: "Select OK to restart app. Import will only work after app restart." Restarting the app doesn't work, and I get no confirmation that it's even attempting the restore. Any advice?

Attached screenshot is from the wiki. Apologies for what may be obvious to some of you, but how/where exactly do I write these commands? Thanks.

Thank you. I'll give that a try.

I found a thread from July 2021 asking if there is "any possibility of it (UD Mobile) getting ported over to run on a PC without using android emulators? If not, is there a particular emulator that works well with it?" One of the answers was "We will be working on a web version in the future although it will be some time." Any news? Thanks.

Thanks again, @jkmcfadden. That was really helpful. I found two things I was doing wrong - (1) Trying to use LED parameter values = 1 (using the button press to control the LED) and (2) using "status" instead of "control status" in some of my programs. I'm not sure why I did that, other than I wasn't paying attention and didn't notice I had it both ways. Do you do the same thing with the big button, or are you using that as a wired relay?

Thanks for all the information and examples @jkmcfadden. How are you dealing with your indicator lights? I'm having a hard time coming up with a simple solution to have them accurately represent status.

I had previously found this out by dumb luck, but thanks @Chris K for the confirmation. Strange that it's not documented anywhere (that I could find).
