Hi,
I’ve got an iPhone, and I’m trying to setup an alert so if a sensor opens in the middle of the night, my phone will make an extended noise. Not play a speaker or siren, just my phone specifically and do something besides the generic notification beep which can be silenced at night.
I was looking for this functionality in Smart Home Monitor, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to alert a user besides the generic push notification, and there’s no way to send a text???
Instead, it seems you have to setup an automation where the result of an If-Then would be to send a text message, and setup on the iPhone the alert noise specific to that sender.
Is there a better way? Because if so, I still don’t see how to use an Automation for something like… If (Armed status is Away/Stay, AND sensor 1 goes open AND sensor2 goes open). That doesn’t seem like And is the right operator and it should be something like (Alarm is Away/Stay) AND (sensor 1 goes open OR sensor 2 goes open OR …) but that level of And/Or work doesn’t seem configurable short of web core.
What’s the right way to do this, presuming I’m missing something?
