Homey app fire/security alarm

I would like to have an option to put the Homey app in alarm mode, as part of a flow. For instance is the smoke alarm is activated, a simple push message is not enough to draw attention. The phone should make noise, start buzz ing and blinking etc etc
Similar to the monthly alarm test we have in NL.

A similar mode could be defined for the homey home station btw

That’s called a “flow”.

@robertklep No, I think it is a ‘then’ action. Similar to ‘send notification’ you could have ‘activate phone emergency alarm’

The point is that you can create your own “phone emergency alarm” with flows. Not everybody wants the same sort of alarm as you do.

But this discussion is moot because Homey doesn’t support sending critical notifications, or notifications with a specific sound. But you can perhaps play a sound on a smart speaker, or blink all your home lights, or sound a siren if you have one. The possibilities are endless.

… but that does not help if you’re not at home. And if you want to alert all of the home members.
(Like with notifications) That is why I raised this as idea / suggestion

Ï’m using the Callmebot to send me an Whatsapp msg. And gave the contact it’s own notification that could raise the dead (preferably not, or I would need another alarm for that :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:)…
