A year of updates that make building remote interfaces for your microcontroller projects faster, smarter, and more flexible.

New Controls
Terminal

Display text information as a scrolling list right in your app. The Terminal control stores data offline in the controller and delivers it to the app as soon as a connection is established, so you never miss a message, even if the app was disconnected when it was sent. Per-character color support lets you highlight errors, warnings, and status messages at a glance.

TimePicker, DatePicker, TimeZonePicker

Take full control of date and time directly from your interface. Set the time, pick a date, or choose a time zone, and send it straight to the controller. Perfect for schedulers, timers, clocks, and any project that needs to stay in sync with real time.

Wi-Fi Select and Password

Two dedicated controls for building a Wi-Fi connection interface. Let users pick a network from the list and enter the password in the app.

New Features
Save Variables to EEPROM

Control values can now be stored in the controller's EEPROM. After a reboot or power loss, your settings are automatically restored: switches, sliders, and other control states come back exactly as the user left them.

Variable Change Events

No more checking every variable in every loop(). You can now assign a handler to a variable, and it will be called automatically when the value changes. Your code becomes cleaner, shorter, and easier to maintain.

Perhaps the "Features" section is being used for news...

Your board can now send notifications to your phone, even if you're not connected to the board. The new control is already available. For more information, see the documentation at this link https://remotexy.com/en/help/systems/notifications/

Notifications will only be available on your phone if you have a PRO license or a developer account.
This is a new feature, so some bugs are possible. Please test it thoroughly before using it in important projects.

Additional information about the control element is available https://remotexy.com/en/help/controls/timepicker/.

The new control element allows you to obtain UTC real time and the phone’s time. Time synchronization is supported via the phone and over the Internet if your controller is online. Additional information about the control element is available by link https://remotexy.com/en/help/systems/realtime/.

New control elements have been added for entering date and time, as well as for setting the time zone.

How it will be.

You will not be able to update the application from the app store if you have Android 4. You will also not be able to install it.

If you have Android 4 and the application is already installed, it will continue to work with your existing projects.

If the application is not updated, and you cannot do this on Android 4, you will not be able to connect to the new graphical interface that you will create in the editor.

If you want to continue creating new interfaces, you need to either update to Android 5 or higher. If your phone or tablet does not support this, you will have to replace it.

The library contains support for several new features. These features will soon become available in the new version of the GUI editor after the update. But now you can test the library in your projects.
https://remotexy.com/en/library/

P.S.
The new version is intended for testing.
If you are creating a project for a responsible task, we recommend using the stable version of the library 3.1.13 or 3.1.14.

You can adapt your graphical interface to different screen formats. You can choose a suitable format for yourself, or you can develop a universal interface that will look good on various devices.
More details on setting up your interface for different screen formats can be found in the description by following the link https://remotexy.com/en/help/editor/formats/

uint8_t prevButtonState = 0;
void loop () {
  if ((RemoteXY.button_1 != 0) && (prevButtonState  == 0)) {
    // TO DO something
  }
  prevButtonState = RemoteXY.button_1;
}

The regular behavior of the button remains unchanged, and you can continue to use it to control anything while the button is pressed:

void loop () {
  if (RemoteXY.button_1!=0) {
    /*  button pressed */
  }
  else {
    /*  button not pressed */
  }
}

The feature has been implemented in:
Android app version 4.13.3
iOS app version 1.10.1

However, these are not the only features included in the new app version. More details about the remaining features will be provided shortly.
