Hello everybody,
I’ve tried looking around but haven’t been able to find what I’m looking for. Maybe I’m not searching with the correct terms. Under normal circumstances, my wife and I use our phones for presence detection, and it works great. However, for when we are out of town, I have a Smart Things Arrival Sensor to give to a friend to watch the house, feed the cat, etc. Is there an app that I’m not aware of that can use the little speaker in the sensor (normally used as a key locator, I assume) chirp when the sensor has been detected, and the alarm has been shut off?
As always, my ST setup is a work in progress. We’ve used the arrival sensor once before, and it worked really well for 5 out of the 6 days we were gone. That one day, there was some lag between our friend arriving and the house disarming. She unlocked the door, and walked in… to be greeted by a very loud siren - obviously not ideal. If she had a way of knowing to just wait another 5-10 seconds, that would be very useful. I think a short audible chirp from the arrival sensor would be perfect.
Thanks in advance!
