Is it possible to switch to a different panel on actiontiles based on a sensors position? For example if my back door opens I want to switch to my actiontiles panel with my back door camera. I'm running running fully Kiosk browser on a fire HD 8

Not that I know of - it's a requested feature I think. I know I talked about it with Terry (from AT) before he passed away. We talked about using devices as a trigger for panel changes, just like your request. Terry knew about it before I brought it up, so others had discussed or requested it probably long before I brought it up. Examples we discussed: 1. Smoke Alarm goes off, Smoke Alarm panel comes up showing each of the smoke alarms so you can see where the fire is. 2. A "check engine" light comes on so AT brings up my dashboard panel to see what the issue is (water, freeze, low battery, critical device offline, freezer temp or power issue, power outage, etc. )

I had a similar discussion!

Another thing that should be fairly simple to implement would be to allow navigation to a different panel by tapping an info tile. Doesn't achieve the stated objective here, but would still be useful!

@dye Lol. I requested something just like that. That goes right along with my Check Engine light; some issue happens in the home, trips my Check Engine to turn on. Press the now Red Check Engine tile and up comes the dashboard to look into what the specific issue is. Yup, talked about that too - I'm sure I wasn't the firstbto bring it up, but Terry and I talked about how it would work and how to present the UI in the Builder. This would be a great feature.

That's a cool idea. I'm not aware of a mode or feature that will do that in AT though.

I wish that was possible. I think it's in the suggestion list at the AT site.

I think there is a way to do this if you setup a notification for the trigger (someone did this with the ring doorbell). I think the problem is you can’t get notifications on the fire for apps outside of amazon apps.
