How can we turn off SmartApps temporarily

[ritchierich (Michael)]

I simply set an active input in my apps. I toggle it when I want to turn it off. Similar question posted here:

Temporarily Disable an app

I did this in a few apps by adding an active option in the SmartApp setup. If I want to disable it, I just go into the SmartApp and mark it inactive. Example preference: section(“Monitor Status”) { input “enableAlerts”, “bool”, title: “Enable Alerts?”, defaultValue: true } Then in my updated() function, I have: if (enableAlerts) { subscribeToEvents() }
