I wrote this little smart app some time ago, but never shout it out. Apparently, at least a few people found it useful, so here it goes…
“Dim and Dimmer” app allows you creating lighting scenes that can be activated by changing home “mode”. Unlike “Hello, Home” actions, each dimmer level can be set individually for each mode. Also, you don’t need to install multiple apps for each scene. Hope you’ll find it useful.
I was playing with your Dim and Dimmer app and it is awesome!
I have a request for an update (or different version). I want to use it to replace using large quantities of the “Turn on Bright” App. That app allows me to set dimmer levels for a single dimmer without turning on the switch. Then when I turn on the switch, it automatically sets the dimmer to that level. It works great, but I need one per switch, per mode (It becomes an N x N problem).
What I would love to have is an enhancement to Dim and Dimmer that would allow me to set whether or not the light comes on during the mode change, or just changes the dimmer level (like “Turn on Bright”). This would be a really powerful addition. As an alternative a second version that just sets the dimmers without turning them on would be great.
Sorry, I wish I could help you, but I have absolutely no bandwidth to work on this project at this time. But given it’s an open source, I’m sure someone can pick it up and implement your ideas.
