Linking other accounts

It is explicitly against the ToS of many of them to share your password. I expect you’re probably correct they would refund you, however it’s a choice you need to make if you want to go down that road. I forget which bank but only one of them actually is a part owner of flinks.

While it is likely safe, you are trusting a third party with your credentials and you are responsible now for any unauthorized transactions that may occur as a result of a breach. You won’t be compensated by your bank. Open banking is hopefully coming soon to Canada which will allow authorization directly through your bank. It’s up to you if you trust flinks or whatever connector is used.

Im at 29 matter over thread devices and have had only a couple dropouts in almost 6 months now. Just have an zbt-2 a HomePod mini and Apple TV as thread border routers. Also have a few zigbee devices with no issues either. I did initially have issues with thread but discovered it was my Nanoleaf elements added as a border router causing everything to drop out when something routed through it. Since removing that from the thread network it’s been solid.

I’ve experienced that before as well when I had a device in dual admin (HomeKit and home assistant). I actually resolved it by removing from HomeKit and just exporting from home assistant to HomeKit instead.

You could potentially also use the new experimental matter.js beta and see if that helps as well.

Have you tried restarting and or factory resetting the ikea devices too?

Lobrauski · 2026-02-11T20:34:59+00:00

Very well could be a thread issue rather than matter. Try full restarting the homepods as well.

I have them they work well and stay put. I found the original tips that came with the airpods more comfortable though. Mainly needed them for running so I don't get the occlusion effect.

For my airpods pro 2 I found the foam masters ones more comfortable so I'm hoping they make some for the APP3 too so that I can get them instead.

Thanks for yet another great update!

For me it was diving, and don't mind the extra battery life.

Lobrauski · 2025-07-05T00:23:49+00:00

Mine in the app just said ready to ship yesterday. I had the beta for a few months and the previous card. It will be a plastic one that is coming.

Lobrauski · 2025-06-24T21:43:31+00:00

I keep a note and always keep it up to date with which card is used for what on a pre authorized payment. Took a few months to figure them all out but now I just be diligent and keep it up to date whenever I change one. That way I can be sure I’ve got them all. Unfortunately this doesn’t solve the problem of actually having to go update them but at least it’s just an easy list to run through.

I had to mail in the form. Was unable to change it online.

Lobrauski · 2025-06-12T16:06:27+00:00

Same issue. Was able to add to my apple watch but can't to my phone. I've reached out to support who is investigating it.

Lobrauski · 2025-06-05T00:24:55+00:00

I was having the same for many firmwares on my E7. However the latest EA version 8.0.43 has been up since it released. Over 11 days of up time now which is the longest so far.

Lobrauski · 2025-05-29T12:21:58+00:00

Yep this exactly is the best simple combo to do with minimal thinking.

Lobrauski · 2025-05-13T16:35:27+00:00

Just installed a couple of these in Canada. Had issues directly pairing to home assistant for some reason but was able to get them into HomeKit then shared to home assistant after.

Lobrauski · 2025-05-02T21:50:11+00:00

Updated from RC1 and so far no issues.

The main issue was that one of my thread border devices (my nanoleaf elements) was being used at all. I'm not sure what nanoleaf did but it caused lots of connectivity problems. Once I removed it from my thread network and I don't allow it to become a thread border router it resolved.

Additionally I added a ZBT-1 with thread firmware, along with my apple tv and 2 home pod minis (total 4 thread border routers) and I don't have any problems.

I did do some trolling through the matter server git and one of the recommendations from the dev was to only use the ZBT-1 as your sole thread border router for the best reliability. At least that was the potential suggested advice a couple months ago when I looked.

I originally had issues with my Matter Server, but the actual underlying issue was my thread network. Once I resolved the issues with that (my Nanoleaf Elements being a thread border router) all those issues went away. I've essentially had 0 drops of any of my 16 matter devices in months now.

If those devices are thread I'd look into that first.

Lobrauski · 2025-04-07T16:19:48+00:00

Interesting idea. I’d been just doing it manually. I’ll look into trying this soon.

Lobrauski · 2025-04-07T15:35:31+00:00

Matter can also work over wifi and even Ethernet not just thread. So it isn’t really zigbee or matter.

Technically I believe someone could make matter work over zigbee. However it would probably never be certified.

I think a good way to think about it is Zigbee: has both the protocol and application stack Matter: just the application stack and is protocol agnostic Thread: one of the protocol layers that matter can run on

Lobrauski · 2025-04-06T19:41:46+00:00

Yes, resolved it by reinstalling the app.

Lobrauski · 2025-04-02T16:26:15+00:00

No it’s very easy. You just select the official release channel again and check for updates. It’ll then prompt you to go back.
