The Dashboard is the main control interface in the Smart Pierre app, providing an intuitive and organized way to manage all connected devices (I/Os). It groups I/Os into tabs (groups) for logical organization, such as rooms or device types, allowing users to quickly find and control their smart devices.
Key Features:
1. Tabs/Groups:
• The dashboard organizes I/Os into tabs based on user-defined categories like room (e.g., Living Room, Kitchen) or type (e.g., Lights, Sensors), making navigation simple and efficient.
2. I/O Control:
• Each I/O can be controlled directly from the dashboard with a single tap. You can easily turn on/off lights, adjust heating, or monitor sensors from this interface, providing real-time interaction with your smart devices.
3. Quick Settings via Long Press:
• For deeper customization, you can long press any I/O card on the dashboard, which will bring up the Settings tab for that device. This allows you to easily adjust specific settings or configurations directly from the dashboard without navigating through multiple menus.
The Dashboard in the Smart Pierre app offers a user-friendly and flexible way to manage your smart home, combining both convenient control and customizable settings in one place.
I/Os are organized into Tabs or Groups displayed at the top of the Dashboard.
