The Alerts section in the Smart Pierre app allows users to manage and configure real-time notifications based on specific conditions or events. From this interface, users can view all active alerts or create a new one using the Add button.
Key Features:
1. Create and Manage Alerts:
• Easily create new alerts with the Add button. Each alert can be customized to notify you when certain conditions are met, such as a security breach or leaving a door open for too long.
2. Notification Types:
• Each alert card shows how the alert will notify you through one of the three methods:
• Mobile Notification: A native mobile app notification.
• Phone Call: Receive a call when the alert is triggered.
• Log Entry: The event is logged for future review.
3. Conditions and I/Os:
• The alert list displays the I/Os (input/output devices) involved in triggering the alert and whether the conditions have been met.
Example Use Cases:
• Security Alerts: Receive an alert in case of a potential break-in or suspicious activity.
• Garage Door Reminder: Get a notification if your garage door has been left open for more than a certain number of minutes.
• Safety Alerts: For instances like detecting gas leaks or leaving appliances running.
The Alerts feature ensures that you’re always informed about important events or conditions in your smart home, providing peace of mind and enabling quick responses when needed.
