    getting up to grab my phone from across the room where I keep it so I don’t doomscroll in bed

    because I forgot to turn off the smart bulbs that are also controlled by the switch on the other side of the room

      I have two switches. One on the wall by the door, and one on the floor side table.

      Because of the exact same situation.

        it’s seriously baffling to me that we don’t have something between a clapper an full voice control, surely it should be utterly trivial to recognize different patterns of a loud sound?

        I want to enable party mode for my lights by clapping out “shave and a haircut”

        A matter of time before someone invents a clapper allowing you to doomscroll from across the room.
