I’ve developed several blueprints that send notifications, and I’m adding an option to choose a sound for iOS notifications. Currently, it’s done like this:
- action: notify.mobile_app_<your_device_id_here>
data:
message: “Your Roommate arrived”
data:
push:
sound: "US-EN-Morgan-Freeman-Roommate-Is-Arriving.wav"
However, this forces the sound on all recipients, and not everyone may want the same sound. On Android, notification channels let each person choose their own sound, but iOS doesn’t seem to offer something similar.
My question is: Could the Home Assistant Companion app for iOS have a feature where users can choose their own notification sound, similar to Android’s notification channels? I understand this would require development, but is it possible within iOS’s limitations?
