Question: is that possible to add an zigbee devices like that Shelly one to the M3 hub?as from what I know zigbee devices from others brands can’t be added to aqara app using M3

If he’s referring to the Shelly Flood Gen4, then the sensor will likely be connected via Matter over Wi-Fi. Zigbee will most likely not work.

Yes, I thought as much. :slight_smile:

Could you take a screenshot? Is there something preventing the push notification from coming through?

Have you ever clicked “Preview” to test it?

My question is why did you bought that bulky water leak sensor?as aqara water leak sensor is smaller and do not have cable for the leak sensor.

Good question. Shelly’s sensor is kind of funny: a flood sensor that you’re not supposed to get flooded because it’s only IP44-rated :rofl:

There is actually some thoughts behind it! I want to monitor some pipes the cable makes it easy to wrap it around the pipes.

I just check on Amazon and is more expensive then aqara water leak that is bulky and have 2m cable to extend the detection still I do not see it very practically to have an cable around the floor witch you can’t hide like an wall cable.well each one chose what they like.i personally just bought 2 more Aqara water leak sensors to complete my guard as for some weird reason my bathroom needs 2/3 sensors :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Ok than make sense.also why you do not make the automation from Apple home kit or what are you using as matter platform ?if aqara doesn’t give you options use the matter once because I just look on my aqara water leak sensor and only have 2 automations from to chose since this water leaks are directly added to the basic guard on aqara app.

Have you clicked Preview to see if the notification works?

What does the device show in the Accessories section of the Aqara Home app when you select it and the sensor has been flooded?

Wrapping it directly around the pipes would likely cause issues.

The sensor so detect water but the automation doesnt trigger.

How do i see the preview?

When you tap “Preview,” a notification should pop up. If you don’t receive a notification, it might be due to your smartphone’s settings.
