Yo fellow Aqara fans! Just wanna share how I hacked my mornings using the motion sensor—game changer alert! :rocket:

So here’s the deal: I’m not a morning person. Snoozing alarms? Guilty. But since I set up my Aqara motion sensor near the bed, magic happens. When it detects my first zombie shuffle to the bathroom at 6:30 AM, it triggers:

  • Lights gradually brightening (no more retina burns)
  • Coffee machine firing up (auto-brew = love language)
  • Gentle playlist kicking in (no aggressive beeps, pls)

Pro tip: Angle the sensor to ignore pets (RIP my cat’s midnight zoomies). Also, tweak sensitivity—false alarms = grumpy human.

Anyone else got cool wake-up hacks? Spill the beans below! :coffee:
