MSA-1594: This simple app helps people with virtual 3 way switches work properly. The 'smart lights' app doesn't work properly and sometimes a switch can be in the 'on' state with the light off, and a persons pushes on, and the switch does nothing. My app fixes this so that the 2 light switches are constantly in the same state regardless of where the light is turned on or off (even if its done so within smart things!). However there can be up to a 10 second delay between the aux switch getting the new info to turn on or off to match the primary switch ( i do not know if there's any way for me to speed this up). This code is very simple and should protect against infinite loops.
