History and logbook

The worker keeps 30 days of what the devices did, without anyone having the app open.

#A device's history

Open a card's menu (the dots, or a tap on a small card): under its size, the History shows the last 24 hours or 7 days as a graph, with Show as a table for the numbers, and its latest logbook lines. The graph follows the number the card is about:

DeviceGraph
SensorIts first reading, in its unit
Meter, switch with powerWatts
Heat pump, valveRoom temperature
Light, fanBrightness, speed
BlindHow open it is
Robot vacuumBattery

A reading is kept at most once a minute, and every fifteen minutes when it doesn't change.

#Logbook

Logbook, in the sidebar (under More on a phone), lists what happened, newest first, by day:

  • a light, switch, fan or heat pump turning on or off, a door opening or shutting, a lock locking, unlocking or jamming, a speaker playing or pausing, a button pressed, a vacuum or printer changing what it's doing;
  • someone getting home or leaving (see "Who's home" in Routines);
  • every routine run, and what failed.

A change shows once the device reports it, so a tap that a device never confirms doesn't show.

This guide lives in the project repo: edit it there, and this page follows within a day.
