datzent83 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I just got my Halo Touch remote. Was able to add it to the system and update it without any issues. I am currently using a Neeo remote which has a way to program on-screen custom buttons. I can't seem to find anyway to do the same on the Halo remote. Can anyone chime in on this? Thanks!

BY96 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Are you referring to the NEEO's custom buttons that appear when you swipe right on the home screen? If so, I do not believe the Halo remotes have anything equivalent. If you are referring to the up to four custom buttons per room that can be programmed in HE to appear on all apps and remotes, then those should automatically appear on the Halo.

datzent83 Posted August 8, 2023 Author Share Posted August 8, 2023 I am referring to the custom buttons that NEEO remote has. Since the remote just came out there is a possibility of custom buttons on future updates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the "Custom Buttons" Agent to create custom buttons on the Halo Touch remote.. thats the only custom buttons that can be created on the Halo Touch I believe.

The Halos don’t have the same option. Use the Custom Buttons in Agents like suggested above. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BY96 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 I did use custom buttons agent, but where do they show up on the Halo Touch remote?Mine just showed up on the room’s home page, alongside Watch, Listen, etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Time2Jet Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 I did use custom buttons agent, but where do they show up on the Halo Touch remote?Look for the screen icon named what you named the custom button. Since the Touch, I’d name them something like “Buttons” (instead of the room name) and position that icon comfortably on the room’s Home Screen.

BY96 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Here is a photo of mine. The four custom buttons I programmed for the Home Theater room show up as the four buttons with dots. South Africa C4 user and Time2Jet 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be renaming some things to make them fit better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datzent83 Posted August 14, 2023 Author Share Posted August 14, 2023 I see the custom buttons now. I was looking in the wrong place. I still prefer the NEEO remote. The screen looks and feels more HD and it seems much faster to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southerncentralrain Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 How do you access the Custom 1, Custom 2, and Custom 3 commands on the Halo touch? I just got mine yesterday and feel like I must be missing where they are located. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datzent83 Posted August 16, 2023 Author Share Posted August 16, 2023 I think custom 1, 2 and 3 are only got the Halo button remote. BY96 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Correct, those are not on the touch version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slim42dog Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 On the halo touch, can you remap the 2 buttons at the bottom? The O and Square? that are next to Pause? Those buttons are useless to me and would rather remap them if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BY96 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Edit - Based on the below posts, it appears you can remap physical buttons on the Halo Touch, but there are no "Remote Focused Buttons," like on the NEEO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slim42dog Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Just wanted to confirm to the group, my C4 Dealer was able to remap the circle (record) and square (stop) buttons on my halo touch today to a custom command just fine.

datzent83 Posted August 17, 2023 Author Share Posted August 17, 2023 You can remap any hard button the Halo Touch. We just wish it had dedicated custom buttons like the regular remote has. I was able to remap the skip and fast forward buttons as well. BY96 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is great! So glad I was wrong!! Do you know if the programming can be done in HE or only in Pro? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anon2828 Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Wait. That's the user interface for the Halo? What happened to the icons that look like what is in the iOS App? That looks horrible in my opinion. Interface is going backwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datzent83 Posted August 17, 2023 Author Share Posted August 17, 2023 I agree. The icons are definitely wrong. The old icons that were on NEEO and iOS app need to come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chopedogg88 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 I actually prefer the new lighting scene button to the old one with two bulbs one upside down that was silly Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk BY96 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopedogg88 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Oh and the old custom buttons agent do work on the Halo touch, as long as you favorite them to the room favorites! Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
