FAQ - Night Lights - Entity State
This option allows you to use an entity to activate your night lights. You can use this option in your automation to activate your whole house into a night mode. Example of entities or use cases are;
- Alarm system - Some type of sleep or night mode.
- Turning your mobile phone on “Do Not Disturb” when you go to bed.
- A helper toggle.
- A switch near your bed.
- A bed sensor.
- Etc
When the entity is in the ON state, night lights will be activated. When the entity is in the OFF state, the night lights will be deactivated.
Note: If you are using other conditions, then they must be met too.
iPhone Set Up - Do Not Disturb
Things change and your iPhone may be different, but hopefully this will help some.
If you would like to use “Do Not Disturb” on your phone then you must turn this feature ON and have the Home Assistant App installed on your phone.
Then you will need to go into your phone settings and under “Home Assistant” you will need to turn this on. For an iPhone it is called “Focus” as shown below.
You will the need to turn this feature ON in focus. To do this swipe up or down and you will see something like this.
When you tap/hold/push on focus more options will appear.Then if you tap on the 3 dots you will see settings.
You will then need to turn ON focus status.
Once turned on go back and you will see an area with “Allowed Notifications”. You do not need to allow anything for Home Assistant to see if focus is turned ON or OFF.
You then can go into Home Assistant and in settings / devices & services / mobile app / your mobile phone device you will see the state change when you turn it ON and OFF with your phone. This will confirm that HA is receiving your focus status. You then add this entity into the automation under “Night Lights - Entity State” as shown below.
Enjoy
