Homekit Record while at Home and at Sleep (ARM Trigger)
Every professional security system has an "ARM" and "DISARM" function.
When using Homekit with video cams, you can set "Stream" while at home, and "Stream & Record" while away, but there seems to be missing the ability to "ARM" or "Record" while at home. (ie. While you sleep)
The only way to achieve recording (while at home) currently, is to either:
- Switch to "Stream and Record" while at home ALWAYS on each individual cam (which will wear out batteries quickly) or
- Remove people from from being at home (which triggers a lot of other stuff in homekit)
As most cams have the ability to choose between ie. Home, Away, Disarmed, Geofencing, Scheduled and Night, it seems strange that Homekit recording can only be set for "Home" or "Away" and there's is not trigger available to switch at will.
Please advise
