Not sure if this is an iOS app issue or HA, but notifications flagged as critical do not appear on the phone while in Do Not Disturb mode. I’m testing using the example from the HA website (below). I’m running HA v0.91.3 and iOS assistant app v1.5.1. Am I missing something?
automations:
- alias: 'Fire Detected'
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id: sensor.test_alarm
to: 'on'
action:
- service: notify.ios_my_iphone
data:
title: "Wake up!"
message: "The house is on fire and the cat's stuck in the dryer!"
data:
push:
sound:
name: default
critical: 1
volume: 1.0
This is mine and it works fine. Looks like you are missing category: "alarm"
########## Home to Work Days ##########
alias: Home to Work Days
initial_state: true
trigger:
platform: numeric_state
entity_id: sensor.neil_home_to_work
above: 70
condition:
- condition: time
after: '05:00'
before: '08:00'
- condition: state
entity_id: input_boolean.days
state: 'on'
action:
service: notify.ios_neil
data_template:
title: "Traffic Alert - Home to Work Days"
message: "Current travel time is {{ states.sensor.neil_home_to_work.state }} minutes"
data:
push:
category: "alarm"
sound:
critical: 1
name: default
volume: 1.0 # 0.0 to 1.0
Thanks @BertrumUK for your response. Adding the category: “alarm” makes no difference, the notification does not pop up, but is there on the home page when you wake the phone. Does yours work even from sleep?
There were no real good docs for this when I set it up - I found it in someone else’s Github page but cannot remember where.
There was no setting up apart from adding what I wrote further up in this thread. You do need to be running the iOS 2.0 beta app and enable critical alerts.
