Hey all,

Was testing the app today. I tested it at home on my home network.
Methodology:
home -> phone connected to home wifi
away -> phone wifi off, connected thru 5G

When the app works thru wifi everything works as excepted connection wise as far I know (still testing). To test away functionality at home I kill app task. Turned off wifi. Reload app and connect thru cell connection. As expected "connected remotely - controls, CFS & firmware needs home WI-FI."

Is it possible for the app to know if user returns to their home wifi and allow full control again in the app without exiting and restarting?

The app seems unaware you've returned home. Currently I have to kill app and restart it for it to know I'm back home and should be receiving full access. Maybe this was intentional because if you do indeed return home maybe you dont need remote access and can just use the printers touch screen or a local fluid instance. But also maybe one doesn't have a printer in every room in the house but may have one's phone on hand. In that case they'd have to exit the app and reopen it with wifi enabled just to enter home full control mode. Just something I noticed. Not a deal breaker.
