Has a Date Been Set?

[johnjces]

I have been scouring the forums and trying to keep an eye on when the January 2025 OS upgrade along with Matter support and other cool stuff will be available. All I know is January.

Has a release date been set? What order of upgrade? OS first then IoX? Does the mobile app in its last update have the graphing ability now? I'm certain full information will be forthcoming but trying to plan on the upgrade and find time to work out any issues that might occur.

Thanks for any info.

All great questions that don't have answers yet. The link you provided is all that can be known at this time. When they're certain its good to roll out, we'll get a post with all the answers.

I assume there will be an announcement in the slow-moving “announcements” section.

The app has had graphing for a while - you have to enable it on eISY with a secret incantation I don’t remember off-hand. I don’t have much I can graph, though I have an Ecobee and sensors and it indeed makes graphs.

And oh ah say, ah say Paul - I just realized we’re neighbors. Hello from Lathrup Village!

They have up until Jan 31st at 11:59 PM before the users get restless!

Well, better be a bit later and thoroughly checked out. Either way, I'll wait a bit before upgrading, in case something unforeseen comes up early on. I'm in no rush for Matter functionality.

What do you mean? I'm surprised there wasn't a post at 12:01am on January 1st asking about the update. 

@jtara92101 as for the "slow moving announcements" area - last I checked on that there are so many moving parts now that it's hard to make an announcement when things are updated. That's why UD Mobile was being used to alert users about an update a few months ago. 

However, with this being a "big" upgrade/release I'm hopeful UD will have a good release, documentation, and processes in place to help with the transition.

1- Because we're such a reasonable bunch!

2- Yes, the d-word: documentation. Any extra effort in good documentation will pay off 10 to 1 against a flurry of support issues and tickets. UDI generally has good documentation, but it's just not up to date. This is a golden opportunity to catch up.
