What is the Presence Soft Sensor and how to set it up for better automations?

Cool :sunglasses:

I noticed after installing The Presence Soft Sensor the Aqara app throws me an error message. There are no errors, remove The Presence Soft Sensor and the error message goes away.

The software gods should probably figure out how to fix this sooner rather than later.

This is a great feature!

I have created a soft person detection sensor for all rooms :grinning:

Will play with it… initially it seemed like it was reverting to absence when a sensor was reporting absence, although another sensor was still active, I hope this is not the case.

But it looks very promising as I can expose via Matter to other systems as well!

EDIT: it does not work with FP2 and G100 camera, hence the reason why I was seeing motion absence above :cry:

Have app version V6.1.6 nothing showing in app

Found it on accessories page

Hello, are you going to add this feature to new aqara m200 hub?

Hello, to use the soft sensor feature, you simply need sensing devices like door sensors or smart locks. Since the Hub M200 doesn’t currently support presence sensing, you won’t be able to use this feature with just the Hub M200 alone. Hope this helps!
