![]() The most frustrating thing is the Aqara Home app will often freeze when viewing your live location in the room. But firmware and more importantly app improvements are still needed. I am using the very latest app (v3.2) and firmware (1.1.6), which I’ve read did address some very early adopter issues. The FP2 sensor itself (once setup and tuned) seems pretty solid, but the iOS Aqara Home app is VERY buggy as of April 29, 2023. You must use USB-C to USB-A and use a dumb 5w USB-A charger. No USB-C PD: Although the FP2 has a USB-C port, you can’t use a USB-C to USB-C cable to power it.The app gives you good WiFi details such as MAC address, channel, signal strength, IP and BSSID. WiFi Only: Unlike the FP1, the FP2 requires 2.4GHz WiFi and uses 802.11n.Honestly I’d rely more on an Apple Watch for fall detection since it can call emergency services automatically. Fall-detection: If mounted on a ceiling and zone detection is disabled, it can detect falls. ![]() Built-in Light (lux) sensor: Unlike battery powered lux sensors, the FP2 updates lux readings in near real time.Multi-ecosystem: Supports Homekit, Google Home, Amazon Alexa and IFTTT.Multi-zone tracking: It can monitor a room up to 430SqFt (40 square meters) and up to 30 zones across 320 cells.I read a future firmware update may enable ‘people counting’, which might be useful. Multi-person tracking: Unlike the FP1, the FP2 can live track multiple people (up to 5) at once in the room.The Aqara FP2 has a few attention grabbing features:
