Arguably, I find automations make a smart home truly smart rather than perks like voice control do. What are your favourite automations running at home?

A bunch of little things:

when I hit the small button on my inovelli bedroom switch, it turns on my bedside tables, turns off all other lights, and closes my blinds
when it sees my living room and bedroom tv's on at the same time, it turns off my bedroom. My damn remote triggers both tv's power when I'm in the living room
flashing my kitchen lights if my deep freezer door is ajar
opening my blinds in the morning automatically, and closing them at dusk.
adaptive lighting with hue bulbs
