I’m a new user and could use some help. I have scheduled my outdoor cams to turn on notification at night and off in the morning for security. These functions will occur daily. When we are away I use the I’M AWAY shortcut to turn on the notifications. However, the schedule will turn the notifications off the following morning. I understand that they are both simply rules but it seems to me that the I’M AWAY shortcut would have a higher priority than the schedules. I understand I can either activate the I’M AWAY shortcut daily while on vacation or disable my schedules when activating the I’M AWAY shortcut. Either one seems unnecessary and burdensome. Perhaps the shortcut can include the option to disable the schedules associated with the cams or groups affected by the shortcut. This would also permit the I’M BACK shortcut to enable the schedules when activated. Perhaps there’s another way…
