Tag or QR code to open a shopping list?

Mobile Apps

I’d like to migrate to using HASS’s new multi-list system for our various home shopping lists, but to gain spouse-approval-factor… I need to make it easy. Is there a way to use a QR code or NFC tag to go directly to a specific shopping list? For iPhone specifically.

My automation is for Android so you may need to modify some of the action slightly. I also use zone triggers but you can swap that to a ‘Tag scanned’ trigger very easily.

alias: Zone Supermarket Shopping List notification
description: Send Shopping List to Daves phone when at store
trigger:
  - platform: zone
    entity_id: person.dave
    zone: zone.coles_beechboro
    event: enter
  - platform: zone
    entity_id: person.dave
    zone: zone.noranda_shops
    event: enter
condition: []
action:
  - service: notify.mobile_app_dave_s_s22
    metadata: {}
    data:
      title: Shopping List
      message: Supermarket
      data:
        actions:
          - action: URI
            title: Show list
            uri: /todo?entity_id=todo.supermarket_list
        ttl: 0
        priority: high
mode: single

Tag scanned trigger example:

trigger:
  - platform: tag
    tag_id: 2c6ab44f-35b8-4703-9659-xxxxxxx

@sparkydave Thanks. That’s a good example for when at the store, which was next on my list. Unfortunately, the deep link URI’s don’t work for iOS, which is extremely frustrating.

Still trying to find the “easy” way to open the app to the right place when at home.
