Virtual Button Device Handler

Basically I’m looking to replicate the ability to execute my “goodbye” and “I’m back” routines manually

See the community FAQ. (The topic title is a clickable link)

Basically, use a regular on/off virtual switch and then turn the switch off again each time after you’ve used it. I know it’s ugly, but it works.

FAQ: How to Run Scenes and Automations (2018 V3 App)

Routines from the Classic app have been replaced by a combination of scenes and automations. So here’s a quick rundown of what makes them run. 1. Widgets In the Classic app, you could show Routines as widgets. In the new V3 app, it’s Scenes. Up to 8 of them. To select which scenes have widgets, tap on the three horizontal line icon in the upper left. Tap on the gear icon Tap on “Widget” to access widget settings” Now select/deselect scenes Add widgets per usual for your phone/tablet [image] 2. Watches At the time of this writing, there was no Apple watch app and only some Samsung models had one. Instead, try IFTTT. (Note however that as of October 2020, you can only have three free applets with Ifttt. Otherwise you will have to pay a monthly fee.) https://support.smartthings.c…
