Question

What do you guys use to disable your motion sensor alerts? For example: I get to shop and start working. my alerts continue blowing up my phone. Smartthings is my hub.  

Answer 1

My motion alert notifications only happen if I am in away mode. I use my phone's presence to set home mode or away mode.  

Answer 2

You can also use webcore to send notifications then use virtual switches as restrictions. I do this for lighting. If the virtual switch "send notifications" is, then when sensor X is active send push notification. Then you just turn that switch off and the notifications stop. Modes are another good way that's probably a little easier but webcore is super powerful and flexible. There's lots of options for something like this.  

Answer 3

If location away. then disable this automation? Can I do that? Or am I going the wrong way?  

Answer 4

WebCore should be able to do what you're wanting here

Answer 5

Lots of ways to do that.
