Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Sensor | Unboxing and Setup | Home Automation

[@SuperIronDan]

It would have been good if you can receive a notification when motion is detected (Android)

[@LuminousMatrix]

I agree!

I have mine connected through Aotec V3 Hub (Aeotec took over manufacturing of some Samsung Smartthings hardware). This provides notifications to my android phone, but these get silenced during DND/silence modes, so I use an app called Alertify to allow you to receive these notifications as notifications or 'alarm'. The latter means that whether I set any notifications I have downloaded from Zedge ("Kitchen motion", "motion in the garage", etc) or ones I create myself, these come through as alarms meaning I not only get woken up immediately but I am also instantly directed to where the potential threat is coming from. Changing the sensitivity of the motion sensor helps to reduce false alarms.

hello do you need a philips hub or is homekit enough with the homepod? Thank you

[@LuminousMatrix]

With any of the Philips Hue products, you need the Philips Hue Hub. You can usually get it free (or close to it) with a starter kit. Thank you for watching!
