Hi,

would be great to have the possibility send Voicemessages to attached speakers like Bluetooth Speakers/WigiSpeakers (DLNA, Sonos etc…)

Using the phone/webbrowser to send microphone input to devices.

this would be greate.

thanks
Marc

Moved to the Feature requests section since this is a request, not an announcement of a new feature you’ve developed :wink:

After thinking a while i found a pretty good solution / workaround (for iOS):

  • install the smb file share add-on on HA
  • in iOS (Files) mount the HA-shares over smb
  • create a iOS-shortcurt action that: records a sound, stores it in the “media” folder of that share and finally calls a HA script, that plays that local file

works quite good.
