Set following flows Flow1 When motion is detected And time is between 7.00-10.00 and logic variable “happened today” is false Then set logic variable “I am awake” true set logic variable “happened today” true Flow 2 When Every 1d Then Set logic variable “happened today” false ---

WHEN motion is detected AND time is between 7 and 10 THEN set logic to true AND disable this flow WHEN time is 7 THEN enable first flow (Please keep in mind that there’s a difference between enabling a flow and starting a flow!) ---

@peltsi51 used ‘happened today’ to prevent the flow from running twice. @Rocodamelshekima used disabling and enabling the flow to accomplish the same goal. It’s up to you to decide which one you prefer. ---

`no` (which you are using in the first flow) is not the same as `No` (which you are using in the second flow). ---

You also have to add in the then part of second flow that you set the “Im up” into no. I forgot that from the previous post. ---

You are setting the value of the variable to “No” (uppercase N, lowercase o) in the second flow, but in the first flow you are comparing its value against “backtick-lowercase n-lowercase o-backtick”. That comparison will always fail, both the value and the comparison need to be exactly the same. ---

And you also can’t change the “is equal to” value? ---

Hi @Oren_Malki! I have a similar solution for this. When you click on your profile in Homey you can see “wake-up” or not. My setting for this is if its daytime and I’m home (based on GPS) and I open the IKEA smart blinds between 8 AM and 12 AM - then I’m awake and the morning flow starts with the coffee machine, TV, music etc. At night if the time is between 6PM - 11 PM, I’m home (based on GPS) and the TV is off (which is always on usually) then Homey knows its nighttime and I’m asleep. ---

Ah never mind, you used the inverted `is equal to "yes"` card. I don’t understand why that wouldn’t work…
