Just wanted to say the new push notification improvements are a _huge_ step forward — great job to the team! The alert that can break through Do Not Disturb is already a game changer for urgent events.

One thing that would truly complete the experience is the ability to **link from a push notification directly to a website or app** on your phone. This is already possible in Home Assistant and unlocks a lot of powerful use cases.

**Example use case:**

You get a push notification that someone is in your garden or that the doorbell rang. You tap the notification, and it opens the corresponding app — maybe even a **deeplink** to a specific camera view, if the app supports it.

This kind of fast, seamless action makes notifications _actionable_, not just informative. If Homey could add this kind of deep linking, it would take automations to a whole new level.

Anyone else hoping for this feature too?

And/or the ability to open an app on the same device by clicking on a button in Homey Dashboards…

In theory you could do this with a url structure when Homey add this to their notifications

Agreed, I was using this in Home Assistant as well, and in my opinion it’s one of the last things you really miss when moving from HA to Homey.

It doesn’t feel like an exotic feature, but rather a modern UX expectation. So +1 from my side — hopefully Homey will adopt something similar at some point. 💛
