Hi All
I tried checking if this had been posted recently but it seems not? I had also posted in the FB group where another member seems to have similar issues.
People are mentioning that in the past week that notifications are inconsistently being sent to their phones. I just so happened to only start to use/test it this week… Does anyone else have the same issues? I’m actually really wanting to work towards using a lot of actionable notifications to prompt me to perform tasks that are listed on a dashboard.
Here is info from my original FB post:
I’m having a bit of an issue currently. I’ve set up a test actionable notification as well as a dashboard with a to do list, both were using the below guides.
-Task List: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=689HrjzQKm4
-Actionable notification: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8fcwhko1k4&t=340s
It works perfectly, apart from:
-When the notification doesn’t come through when I run it.
-The notification arrives much later and completing it doesn’t change the status, also doesn’t get dismissed.
To confirm what is happening:
-HA config file edited to include a boolean for taking down the rubbish.
-Dashboard has card with a switch using this boolean to show whether rubbish needs to be taken down or not, red=on and needs to be done, greyed out=off and means it has been done.
-Automation 1 will turn on the boolean’s switch at 5:30am on Mon/Wed/Fri/Sun.
-Automation 2 is the actionable notification, when tapping the “Complete” button turns off the switch.
I’ve tried this with 2 phones:
-My Mix Fold which I’ve completely given up on for notifications, its terrible for that, the OS is garbage.
-My Note9 which sometimes works. I’ll run the test multiple times in a row and its flawless, then will try for 10 minutes and no notifications come through…
I’m not sure if this is an issue with the phone, HA or the automation. I don’t think it’s the automation considering it does work fine when it does trigger properly.
Does anybody have any feedback or know if it’s possible to check that the “RUN ACTIONS” button did actually work?
In case it helps, here is an example of the notification automation itself, I’ve also tried it with targetting specifically my note 9, and tried setting the ttl to 0 and priority as high but that didn’t make a difference.:
