I have automations to turn the virtual switches on/off and it’s working really well but I really wanted the text to say ‘Home/Away’ - I’ve tried changing the values (from on/off) in the DTH but I don’t see them reflected in the new app. Is there a way to do this ? Thanks
You should just add a simulated presence sensor, rather than a switch. It’s an existing simulated device - no DTH needed. The nice thing about the simulated presence sensor is that it does show up in the app as a presence device, and you can include it in automations.
Here’s a trivial way to link one to the real thing.
Thank you ! I’d tried creating the device as Simulated Presence Sensor but I couldn’t see a way to toggle it in an automation. That Smartapp does it just fine.
