I litterally did this, jumper and all, it worked like a charm. I have a combo switch with both 3-way mechanical switches and Claros on the other wall.

You cannot use an iPad as a developer platform. There’s no Xcode or Compiler, providing one is against the App Store policy so those apps just don’t exist in a meaningful manner.

When I was an android user, I would sideload every now and then. Not one did I pirate. On iOS FOSS apps pretty much don’t exist or are buried among forks that add mountains of ads and garbage.

On the App Store, they restrict away the kinds of apps that have a ton of value. For example, Microsoft can’t release their cloud gaming platform as an app, instead we have to use a neutered pwa.

Just give me freedom and don’t treat me like a criminal or child because I want to use apps that mommy Apple doesn’t approve of.

I have the same switches. What I did was use Lutron Claro/Diva switches on the other side of the 3 way and let these stick around as mechanical switches.

Those smart switches work with 3 way switches with only one of the switches being smart.

Super annoying. They release 2 iterations of these pros in 1 year, but we won’t have seen an updated 13” since 2022.
