I cannot get my phone to display the critical alerts I am sending to the app. I get the notification but it just comes in at a normal one, no sound, no top of the queue. I am kind of desperate to get this to work my my daughter’s safety, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I modified the notification settings for the app by turning everything off and then back on again.I also tried on my device and my wife’s device.
I tried these 2 methods:
Method 1:
automations:
- alias: "Fire Detected iOS"
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id: sensor.smoke_alarm
to: "smoke"
action:
- action: notify.mobile_app_myPhoneAppName
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
Method 2:
automations:
- alias: "Dog barking loudly"
trigger:
- platform: numeric_state
entity_id: sensor.dog_bark_decibel_meter
above: "90"
action:
- action: notify.mobile_app_myPhoneAppName
data:
title: "Snoopy is going to wake the neighbors"
message: "The dog is barking and likely to wake the neighbors!"
data:
push:
interruption-level: critical
