So, I installed zwave lights everywhere. It was a giant pain!
I replaced them all with light switches that have motion sensors. Some turn off automatically after being turned on with no motion. Some turn on somatically with motion (and off again later.)
A small handful were turned back into normal light switches because I didn’t want the automation for those rooms.
To me, THAT is automation. Wherever I was thinking about using an app from my bed was not automation. I just moved the light switch to my phone.
