MyAlerts.Pro · Flic Button Setup

Pair a Flic button in 8 steps

Do this once per button. Takes about 5 minutes. The one part worth going slow on is Step 4 — copying the Button Serial Number exactly.

Before you start, make sure:

1

Get the Flic app

Download the free Flic app from your phone's app store, or start at the link below. Open it and create a free Flic account if you don't have one.

2

Skip the Hub (unless you have one)

The app opens on the Hubs tab. A Hub is optional hardware that lets a button work without your phone nearby. For testing, you don't need one — tap the Flics tab instead.

Hubs tab — skip this for testing
3

Add your Flic button

On the Flics tab, tap Add Flic to Phone, then press and hold the button on top of your Flic until it connects — this takes about 10 seconds.

Press and hold until connected

Once paired, give it a clear name like "Emerg-1" — you'll see it listed under the Flics tab.

4

Find the Button Serial Number

Tap your button in the Flics list, then tap Settings. The Serial Number is shown right under the button's name — it looks like BJ50-G71195.

Button Settings — serial shown under the name
⚠ This is the most common setup mistake. The serial mixes letters and numbers (like 0 vs O) — zoom in and copy it exactly. You'll enter this same number in two places: the Flic app (next step) and MyAlerts.Pro (Step 7).
5

Set the button's action to "Internet Request"

Still in your button's settings, tap the Push action, then search for and select Internet Request.

Search actions — choose "Internet Request"
6

Configure the Internet Request

Fill in the Internet Request exactly as below, using your own button's serial number in the Body field.

💡 Replace YOUR-BUTTON-SERIAL with the exact serial number from Step 4 — including the dash.
7

Add the button in MyAlerts.Pro

Open MyAlerts.Pro and tap Add another sensor or Flic button. Paste the same serial number into the Button Serial Number field — this is the only required field. Everything else is optional.

Button Serial Number — required
Button Serial Number
e.g. BJ50-G71195
Enter it exactly as displayed in the Flic app.

Then fill in the optional details below it — location, who it alerts, and in what language.

Optional: location, contacts, and preferences
8

Test it

Save the sensor, then press your Flic button. In MyAlerts.Pro, use Test for me first to confirm the call comes through before testing with a real backup contact.

💡 If nothing happens, double-check the serial number matches exactly in both the Flic app and MyAlerts.Pro — a mismatch is the #1 cause of a silent button.
