which describes exactly the same problem as I am experiencing. I have project with a temperature cloud variable which is displayed on a dashboard. The problem is that on my phone the temperature value is always displayed with 15 decimals! If I change the number of decimal places for the widget in question it follows along nicely on the web dashboard but not on the phone. I use an iPhone running the IoT Remote app version 3.4.0. The behaviour is the same on my iPad running the same app version.
The above linked topic was closed without any solution. Does anyone have a solution today?
I do not have access to any Android device so I cannot check if it is the same problem there.
Update: If I use a basic float instead it works as expected which I guess is an acceptable workaround. But it would be nice if the IoT Cloud team finds a way of fixing this.
I agree with you, @svedblen, the quality of the IoT Remote App is Not good: I blâme it for Rendering integer Cloud variable
values (which may have 10 digits plus + or -) not in plain form, but in scientific notation: Not very readable at all on two (!) Lines in the value Widget !
And, @svedblen: What do you mean by « Basic float variable »? Are you Not displaying values of official cloud types (e.g. Float, Integer) in the value Widget?
Thanks for Feedback, @debut
Hi @debut. I use a "basic float" in this case since the problem appeared when I tried to use the "correct" type, which is temperature. When I used a basic float the value was displayed with the correct number of decimals.
