nevets23 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Any word on the release date of the intercom app? I understand the need to beta test it, but at least put a general timeline/deadline on the release date. Otherwise, why even announce it yet? It's like C4 announced "hey we got this great new addition to our system!" even though they have no idea when it will be ready/released. I'm happy it was announced, but good god, can we get some sort of timeline, update, etc? All radios have been silent since the initial announcement back in the beginning of September!

Bsmall423 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 It's in beta, my guess is 2 more months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ERDrPC Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 My dealer tried to get in on the beta. He was told by his rep that it was done. The rep told him that this means it is done/ready or it failed so badly that they are starting over. He wouldn't hint which one was the case.

wappinghigh Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I paid for a license for the original intercom "app" (ie function) years ago on the older generation TS's (it was just audio??) and paid top dollar for the TS's and I'm still using them here without intercom because (it escapes me why now) the licenses don't work anymore, or something happened with an upgrade or whatever - suffice to say they can sod off if they think I will be spending one cent more on new screens or apps unless they prove to me it will work seamless, and reliably AND any license required is for keeps #oncebittentwiceshy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The license is now included with the controller. Remember that change everyone complained about about?

Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Don't really remember what happened point I'm making is as a consumer I just want sh!t to work from day one with zero fuss and never have to think about it ever again particularly if the combined spend is like 5K (for intercom)...which it was back then using the two TS's and the license as I recall..

You pay 5K expecting intercom then the game gets changed on you? So let em take as long as they like - just get it to work this time and I pay just once, and upgrade my two TS and I'll be sweet, they will get more money and all will be sweet but no more BS from this outfit so they can take their time to get it right this time for all I care happy to wait and put up with sub par TS speeds on the old gear until they do thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wappinghigh Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 here you go they are C4-TSMC7-EN-BL... if I could replace these with another two portables knowing they did intercom reliably every time across the network between each other with the above set up I'd swap them out tomorrow Cheers...

I must say that this is something that I am really looking forward to... so hope it was not am Epic Fail... That said, if it was an Epic Fail, I’d rather C4 officially communicate a delay!

msgreenf Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Now we are speculating about speculation. Maybe control4 is going to build a self driving car? Let's start that rumor Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Leeds UK Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Maybe after the farce of 2.10 and more bugs than rotten meat they are thinking about 2.11 or the share price more than the customer base. I have put my purchase of DS2 on hold until someone tell me it works and the app is coming. The cost of all these upgrades hit £90 today not happy and why some many bugs ? Yes Apple have bugs on there software, but I do not have to pay for some to upgrade my phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wnpublic Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 So has anyone got an update on when we can expect to see the new intercom app? So far, the DS2 is something of a dud for us. It doesn't do much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
