I like the presence simulator but it’s not convenient having to set it on the app. Can it be integrated into a scene?

You can add virtual devices to record the state of presence.

Will this turn on and off the presence simulator?

certainly. You can add a virtual switch and set two scenes to record the status of the present simulator, like this:

scene 1：
IF
presence simulator true
THEN
virtual switch on

scene 2：
IF
presence simulator false
THEN
virtual switch off

Hope this help for you.

Hi @songal @ward

Sorry you have missed the question.

It is not convenient to switch the presence simulator on and off with an app.

I would like a way to be able to turn it on and off using a virtual button/switch. I can then switch it using Siri or NSPANEL widget or integrate it into a scene. For example hey siri turn on my presence simulator.

Is that better explained?

I don’t see the simulator in the scenes as either a condition or an action.

Exactly! It would be nice to see it in there :slight_smile:
