Nefarious Aryq<p>Today I set up some quick toggles for my camera notifications in Home Assistant. Now I can quickly toggle notifications off for either 30 minutes (short press) or 60m (long press), after which they will automatically turn back on. Much better than me turning them off and then asking Siri to remind me to turn them back on after a period of time — or forgetting to turn them back on. Very helpful for when I'm out in the yard for a while mowing or watering or something.</p><p><a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/HomeAssistant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HomeAssistant</span></a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/SmartHome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SmartHome</span></a></p>
