# Flic

> Flic is a built-in integration for Home Assistant. It has 31 installs sharing analytics and works locally.

Flic is a built-in Home Assistant integration that connects Flic buttons and works locally. It adds event entities for the big button and the small button, so presses can trigger automations. It also provides number entities that report the twist position and the push-twist position. For Flic Twist, an option sets the push twist mode used when holding the button and twisting. The default mode fires increment and decrement events that stop at the boundaries, continuous mode wraps around instead, and selector mode fires rotation and selector changed events. Home Assistant discovers the device on the network and offers to add it, and setup is done in the UI.
