Hello!

# Context

I have some Inovelli VZW32-SN switches (z-wave dimmers with mmWave presence sensing) connected to my Homey (pro mini + bridge). As the description implies, they are not primarily detection devices, but they incorporate the functionality.

I have the Inovelli Homey app installed. Presence detection is appropriately useable within flows, and is displayed with the blue dots within the zone list in the app.

# Issue

## Observed behavior

In the Homey app, if I hit the “Activity” category button in the device list, I am just greeted by a prompt to add some sensors to track activity in my home (implying I have none).

## Expected behavior

I expect the presence sensors from my switches to appear in that section/view.

Homey already appropriately interprets the presence sensor being triggered as an activity (blue dot in zone list). Not including the status/timeline of these sensors that are understood to be activity sensors sounds like a bug to me.

In the Advanced Settings menu in the device tile, there is an option ‘Exclude from zone activity’. It should be set to ‘No’.

You can also check/configure this via the Activity tile by clicking the Settings button (cog wheel).

The strange thing is that you mention that you see a blue dot appearing on the device tile, which normally means that the device may trigger zone activity.

Yes I did check advanced settings. The device is not excluded from activity. Yet it’s not listed there either.
