My friends and family don't understand why I'm so happy with my air fryer notification. (feddit.uk)

"Hur Hur that's what a timer on your phone is for dude"

Yeah but this was a smart plug that was going dusty in a drawer!

Anyway it's not the notification that makes my brain tickle in that special way, but the fact that my HA takes note of who was in the kitchen when the air fryer was started and only notifies the floor with that person on when it's done.

Now I've worked that logic out with a silly Air Fryer notification I can reuse it in all my other automations.

That's what the world needs. Smart notifications. And I'm not being sarcastic, this is such a good example of how something like that enriches the user experience that a timer on your phone could never achieve. Keep it up!
