Hello everyone,

I am creating a client android application that allows for smart blind control through connecting a Bond Bridge to a Somfy Shade Motor. Following the local Bond API documentation, I have been able able to get the token and control the blind motor from cmd or terminal using curl, but I want to code it into Android Studio using Java/Kotlin.

Are there any tools/libraries available for me to able to communicate from android studio with the Bond bridge? I can’t find any methods to call curl commands from the Android ecosystem.

Please note, I am a beginner hobbyist with a limited amount of Android experience. Any help is much appreciated!

Thank you!
