• I have no garage door opener so I added a tag in my car to open the smart garage without having to open the app and fiddle with things.
  • I added a tag to our light switch that turns on our bedroom lamp (softer, more pleasant light at night).
  • I added a door tag to unlock the door (no information contained on the tag so nobody can break in).
  • I added a tag that pauses an automation at night so my stair lights don’t come on with motion sensing.

This is literally just the tip of the iceberg. I think of a new one every couple hours. Anyone have any other cool ones to share?

    I use ESPresence with a little esp32-board for presence detection (Tracking 3 iPhones). It works like a charm and is very reliable. In my case it doesn’t drain the phone battery at all eventhough iPhones are really „talkative“ on the BLE-channel in general.
