'''Flic buttons''' are a type of "smart button" that can be programmed for a variety of different use cases<ref>https://flic.io/</ref>, including [[Home Automation|home automation]] and self-tracking, for example as a [[One Button Tracker|one-button tracker]]. The buttons can be programmed to do different things on three different presses: single press, double press, holding pressed and cost ~US $30 for a single button.

A self-research related use case for the buttons can be to set them up as a [[One Button Tracker|one button tracker]] to create records of when discrete events happen. An example of this is using the Flic button to record smoking by pressing the button every time when smoking, where the Flic will store the press in a Google Sheet<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/QuantifiedSelf/comments/vu74jo/comment/ifc9eul/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3</ref>.

Unlike other iterations of the one button tracker, the Flic buttons seem to not be able to record for how long a button was pressed, so they might be less useful if one tries to record the intensity of an event and rather only work for discrete events. For more details on the differences and how to set it up, see [[One Button Tracker|one button tracker]].
