@bryanbr23 shared a cool sensor that he uses to inform him if the temperature is warmer or colder outside and ultimately if he should close the doors and windows or not.
I really like the idea of this, not that it happens often here but the weather has been incredibly hot over the last few days 🌞😎 and closing the windows and doors does make a big difference to the temperatures inside.
- Create template sensor and add inside/outside temperatures and difference as attributes.
- Add the sensor to my problem sensors to inform me if it is warmer outside.
- Add to relevant Lovelace panels.
- Create a notification to remind me to close the doors/windows if they are open and the sensor reports it is warmer outside. Have the report trigger notify every 12 hours or so.
- Automatically close blinds #276

#HomeAssistant Mobile App notification documentation - https://companion.home-assistant.io/docs/notifications/notifications-basic
The mobileapp notify platform accepts the standard title, message and target parameters used by the notify platform. The mobile\app notify platform supports targets as services. As long as you granted notifications permissions during setup, you will find all your devices listed as targets for the notify service with names prefixed notify.mobileapp followed by the Device ID of you device. This can be checked in the App Configuration menu of the sidebar and defaults to the name specified in the General>About within the iOS settings app or under About>Phone in Android settings (with spaces and non alphanumeric characters replaced by underscores). A requirement of the notify platform is that you must specify at least message
