Do I have to disable motion detection on my Wyze camera for Shabbos?

If so, is there a way to set a schedule based on Zmanim, or you have to just set it to turn off for the earliest Shabbos can start and the latest Shabbos can end?

Definitely a question for your LOR.

I don't believe there is way to do that. (Perhaps having set generous schedule will work)

Has anyone gotten Shabbat and Holiday Mode SmartApp set up with Smart Things recently? It doesn’t seem to be available in the app.

It's never worked for me tried S few times over the last 5 years.

I know someone it works for, but I can’t even find that SmartApp in the app.

Speaking of Shabbos mode, what would be the most useful smart appliance that you'd want Shabbos mode on?

Was it removed in the new version of the app?

It appears so along with all of the community-built apps, although the person I know who has it says he has the new version of the app.

Makes sense I have things still from the old app too, moral of the story never rely on a third party

For me it would be my ice maker lol.
 If I use a switch it doesn't turn back on like an AC would.

Can you hack a way to get the old app onto my iPhone?

Should be doable with a switchbot, check them out.

(Would require a simple timer, or have it synced with some other fancy stuff and you can make it automatically know when Shabbos is.)

No way on a iphone, you may be able to install an older version on an android, I can give it a shot in a bit if you'd like.

Any other ideas for automating switches with Shabbos/YT zmanim? Maybe something with ifttt?

That's one of my projects in the works.

Personally I use scenes and then automation to trigger them. When YT comes around I add the effective days to the shabbos trigger and that's it.

You can have ifttt query your Google calendar for words like candle lighting and havdala

I wouldn't rely on such a setup.
