Hardware updates?
Thank you for letting me know. I like the remote a lot and the only thing I would add on a 2/2s would be wifi/zwave support (I have home assistant :D).

Hardware updates?
It looks like my kids dropped the remote one too many times and the usb is no longer connecting. The kids have already busted the battery door which is held on by tape right now so I am thinking that between the last time I updated functionality on the remote and them busting the battery door a drop busted the usb c connection. I haven't torn the remote apart yet to see if it is a bust joint or a larger issue, but wanted to check in to see if there are plans for a new version (ie skip 2, etc) if I have to go down the replacement route.

Change activity letters
It's been a while since I have need help, which says a lot about how rock solid this thing is. I have recently made some changes to my setup, but still needed to have my original activity on the remote. I created the new setup conditions under activity B, however, the new setup will be the main usage with the old setup being secondary. I was wondering if there is a way to swap activity designations for the programmed activity so that what is currently on A is now on B and what is currently on B is moved to A? While the app and the remote are easy to program, it does take time to make sure it is programmed correctly (ie order/macros) and so it would be fantastic if we could just do a swap migration from on activity letter to another. This would also be great if we could migrate programming to an unused activity letter (if there are unused letters) as well.

Battery Life
I am currently on Alpha 6 for the desktop software and firmware 4.13.6-gf65fb2 and it seems to be eating batteries. I am not sure if this is related to the alpha/firmware so I am posting here. It seems that I have to change the batteries on it quite frequently and I wanted to know if there is a way to lower power usage. We are currently only using it for tv/av usage so it is not getting abnormally high usage that would cause such power drain, and OEM remotes get 2+ years out of a set of batteries. In case you are wondering, I seem to have to change the batteries about every 2-4 weeks which is extremely wasteful. I am thinking about migrating to rechargeable to ease the waste, but I am wondering if I can use regular recharge able batteries or should I look toward lithium based rechargeables.

SkipApp-0.9.955 with IR Learning - Alpha 6
I am on the latest alpha and the learning function has been very responsive and I am not seeing any hitching or lagging in the app. It seems to be pretty responsive. Few things that could be worked on: It would be nice to have a resizable custom button option to accommodate larger remotes. There is a power on and a power off button, but a power toggle would be a fantastic addition to the button option for remote design. When updating one of the installed devices, it seems to trash prior button combo configs and it would be nice to have them persist. I know the function is still in alpha, it would be nice to have a way to submit learned remotes for db review directly in app. Over all I am quite happy with the functionality and am quite excited to see the future updates. Also, I have attached the json files from the the remotes I had the Skip learn. Ultimea - Poseidon D60.json Vizio - XRT140L (2020).json
