Not the things that you depend on, but automations that are just for fun

    My laundry automations send phone notifications to my girlfriend.

    “Front load washer’s got a big, wet load for you.”

    “Dryer’s got a hot load ready for you to take.”

      We have notifications sent to all our phones when the washer is done, and based on who’s home, there’s also a tts announcement on certain speakers.

        Same. Ours also uses a timer to re-check in 15 minutes if nobody is home. That way one of us gets alerted when we’re actually home and can do something about it.

        It also doesn’t alert us between 11pm and 8am so we don’t get woken up if we start a late night load.
