More Starlink satellites going up from Vandenburg

@drdrang @podfeet @edtobias My 10 y.o. nephew spent some time with me at the Oregon coast. I showed him how it worked, and he immediately wanted it on his iPad. Then pretty much hourly, he asked “Can I go outside to record more birds?” Aunting win!

@podfeet In Home Assistant it is a helper called toggle. You go to settings and then to devices and services and then on the very top you click on helpers and then say create helper and pick toggle as the item. You can call it whatever you want. It it’s basically an on/off switch. You then expose it to HomeKit. Perhaps a brief play date would be in order

@podfeet you could create an input Boolean in Home assistant and expose it to HomeKit. Include the input Boolean as a condition in all of the four automations. Then toggle it on/off within the home app to enable/disable the automations
