most of the time I use my apple watch to control my philips hue lights, connected through Conbee2/ZHA.
Sometimes the watch is understanding me wrong and turns all lights on.
I really dont like it… especially when the kids rooms start shining while sleeping.
For this reason I would like to know how to avoid such a misunderstanding.
It happened 20mins. ago and meanwhile I have a button I can press, which turns off all lights.
I see following command in history 20mins ago:
Turned on triggered by HomeKit send command turn_on to Set state to True, brightness at 50% for XYZ
My idea would be to limit HA to control max. 10 devices, but then I would not be able anymore to have a button which turns off all lights before going to bed.
This is one of the reasons that voice control is a bad idea. It simply might misunderstand you. (the other reason is that you allow others like apple and google to listen in your house).
I would recommend to segement the lights per room and rooms into floors or domains. I used groups for that. Then automations can control groups using conditions (time, movement, sunset etc). If you want to keep talking to you watch in the house you could probably activate the automations that way instead of the lights. These automations then can check the conditions before actions are taken. You could for example prevent all light to switch during the time it is likely the kids are at sleep, but instead of that glow a soft single light (and turn is off automatically after some time)
