I’d like to use my smartphone WiFi SSID to determine if I’m home or not. When I’m home the alarm (kinda, just notifications from some sensors) needs to be shut off and a light needs to be turned on. Since the sensors update can be forced at maximum 1 minute (but I’d prefer to leave it at 15 minutes to preserve battery) and since 1 minute is too much, is there a way to send an intent to HA companion app to send a sensors update? I would use Tasker to send the intent.

    Just to add - if your phone drops off the wifi (mine does and I’m still trying to find out why… maybe due to power saving), then maybe, you could also look at bluetooth tracking (ie something like ESPresence) for HA to know you’re still at home.

    (Bluetooth can also be setup in the Companion App)
