edokid Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I know this is more of a MobiLinc question but figure people here would use it and don't want to sign up for another forum. Is there a way to rename devices in MobiLinc Pro for iPhone? On the MobiLinc forum a post from 2013 says go to the Device and press Edit in the top right, but I only have a refresh icon in the top right. Can only seem to rename them from the ISY which is less than ideal since I can no longer make them descriptive in the ISY and instead have to name them "Garage Door" etc. Thanks! Link to comment
oberkc Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I think I once asked such a question, and the answer was "no". I have no recently explored newer versions of mobilinc, but I have not noticed this capability having been added. I use android version. May be different in iOS. Link to comment
smokegrub Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 If you change the name in the Admin Console then sync in MobiLinc the revised name will appear in MobiLinc. Link to comment
edokid Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 If you change the name in the Admin Console then sync in MobiLinc the revised name will appear in MobiLinc. Yeah the problem is then you loose your good descriptive names in the admin console is all. Link to comment
stusviews Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Feel free to lose the long descriptive names in favor of text talk. For example, the bathroom mirror light can be BTHMIRLGT, or, since nothing else about the bathroom mirror is automated you can shorten it to BM Link to comment

bipto Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Yet another gripe I have with Mobilinc... The fact that it truncates names to one line of text makes it necessary for me to wrap all the functions that I want to map to Mobilinc shortcuts in in programs with grossly abbreviated names... So "Water South Zones at Dawn" becomes "Water S AM" Not like its a huge deal, and it's certainly close to the bottom of the list of changes I'd like to see in Mobilinc, but I can't image it's that difficult to word wrap the program name across two lines...
