Hi all, I’m relatively new to smartthings and would appreciate a little help please.
I have very simple set up at the moment, smartthings hub, multipurpose sensor and latest app on Android 10.
I’m using the built in SmartThings Home Monitor smart app to just alert/notify me on my mobile phone if the front door is opened. I set everything up very quickly and it seems to work great during the daytime.
The issue is that I don’t get any alerts over night. My phone is set up as ‘Do not disturb’ all the time (both day and night). I have allowed the SmartThings app to over-ride the do not disturb status in android in ‘Apps and Notifications’ settings and, as I said earlier, during the day it works fine.
But, for example, my wife went to work at 6am this morning and I didn’t get an alert as she opened the door. However when I unlocked the phone at 9am the notification pinged up.
I suspect this is more of an issue with the phone/app going to sleep overnight rather than any hardware/application setup.
I’d be most grateful for any advice as to why this is happening.
Thanks in advance
Ian
