Also hiding of unnecessary devices and data sources would be nice, now my screen is pretty grouded. But overall very nice app and definitely part of our home automation on our touchscreen kitchen PC in the future! :clap:
So 127.0.0.1 didnt work. :(
I will have to do a bit of testing and see whats making it not work.

Glad you like it though and im working on making it better all the time. Just need more information about how people are and want to be using it. :)

I bought xSwitch to our kitchen computer and all of our family members use it with their own MS account. I wasn't able to install the app to other users but myself. It seems that I would have to buy the app for every single user of the computer. Is it really so?

I'm sorry to say that that's the way Microsoft, just like Apple and Google, handles App purchases and ownership. It's tied to a specific account so if you purchase it on one it does not carry over to any other account.

Wish there was some way i could help you out but this is beyond my control. :(

Well im glad you like it. Been thinking about getting it on WP8 but want to get a bit further with the Win8 version first. Working on a bigger uppdate right now that i will release soon.

But if its a switch king client for WP you want then try out http://www.patte.se/homecontrol/. Works well on my Lumia 920.

Thanks for the hint! Home Control is really quite handy, it should be mentioned in switchking.se like your desktop app. Looking forward to your bigger update!

Great!

Just to clarify, Home Control works perfectly also in Windows Phone 8..!

Gillar din app, den är enkel och "rättfram". Tack! :clap:

Skulle gärna se en lite mindre storlek på "OFF" resp "ON".
I vart fall i min dator blir bokstäverna klippta lite i underkant. Det spelar ju egentligen ingen roll, men det vore snyggare med mindre typstorlek.
Tror det skulle se mindre "rörigt" ut med säg c:a 75% av nuvarande (installerade appen i nov-13). :wave:

Kul att du gillar den :)
Det är faktiskt ett medvetet val att klippa texten lite i underkant :P
Förstår dock att alla kanske inte gillar de valet.

Har du någonting som du saknar/önskar? Behöver lite idéer för hur man ska fortsätta med programmet.
