I’m really excited about diving into the world of smart home automation! I’ve been exploring how to create a routine that triggers based on both my wife’s and my locations. The idea is that when we’re both away from home during nighttime, the house lights will automatically turn on for security.
I’ve managed to set up automations before, but this one is a bit trickier since it requires monitoring multiple locations simultaneously. I tried using the default automation feature, but it only allows me to set one member’s location as a trigger. I’m curious if there’s a way to configure it to sense that both of us are not home.
I’ve heard about using third-party apps or plugins to handle more complex logic, but I’m not sure where to start. Has anyone successfully implemented something similar? Any tips or resources would be greatly appreciated! I’m really looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences. Thanks in advance for your help!
