- I have no garage door opener so I added a tag in my car to open the smart garage without having to open the app and fiddle with things.
- I added a tag to our light switch that turns on our bedroom lamp (softer, more pleasant light at night).
- I added a door tag to unlock the door (no information contained on the tag so nobody can break in).
- I added a tag that pauses an automation at night so my stair lights don’t come on with motion sensing.
This is literally just the tip of the iceberg. I think of a new one every couple hours. Anyone have any other cool ones to share?
Using the phone as a beacon drains battery like stupid in my case. My ble ibeacons are tied to HA, I don’t use the phone for any kind of beacon tx or rx.
