One of the most important states of my home is whether or not there is anyone at home.

I've created a boolean logic variable homefor this purpose.

Person presence

I got one boolean presence variable for each person with the Homey app. See more information on .

Guests

Often we have guests that stays for several days, and they may be at home even if none of us are present.

I've added a virtual device for Guests present. Each morning I get a notification if the visitor flag is turned on, to make sure I flip it off if the guests are gone. I've mapped the virtual device for guests to a boolean flag along with the other boolean presence variables.

Aggregated state

Note: presence-besok, is norwegian, and it translates to presence-guests.

Fall back when someone arrives home

As a fall back if someone arrives back at home, without the presence working properly, or if the kids enter home before the parents, I explicitly flip home to true always when the door lock opens.
