I’ve fallen deep into the home automation rabbit hole the past few weeks. Some things I’ve set up: - lights turn on when entering a room (via motion detectors) and off when exiting - adaptive lighting adjusts light brightness/color based on time of day - home security arms & all electronics turn off when asleep, based on iPhone focus mode/charging/time of day Home Assistant is extremely powerful (but rocky UX at times)

Is it possible to configure for different people? My wife and I have very different preferences.

Haha this is a very serious use-case I recognize. Replaced all bulbs with Smart bulbs in the house, to dim down automatically at night to reduce bright/blue light exposure. My partner just likes the very bright light, overrides it manually via the app, and I often come home in the evening to this bright light 😂 . I would have been better off not buying it so far as this light is brighter than my old, normal bulbs.

Yes! It's very flexible. Can apply your own preferences on the condition of, for example, your iPhone being home (due to connected to your WiFi or geolocation) and your wife not being home. And vice versa
