Notifications
Home Keeper can push a mobile-app notification for what's due, with tappable buttons — Mark done, Snooze, Skip, Open — that route straight back into Home Keeper. Because the action lands inside the integration, it recalculates the schedule correctly: completing advances the recurrence, snoozing defers the due date and re-arms a fresh reminder, skipping moves to the next occurrence — none of which a generic reminder automation can do, because it doesn't know your intervals.
Use cases. "Nudge me the moment a chore goes overdue, and let me clear it from the lock screen." "Every evening my Chores calendar event fires an automation that asks Home Keeper what's on my list — it sends the first task, and as I tap Done the next one arrives." "My partner and I each get our own filtered chore list on our own phones."
How it's used. Configure notifications in Settings → Notifications. Each notification is a named delivery config with:
- Profile — the saved Profile whose filter decides which tasks this notification covers (leave it unset to cover every due task).
- Send to — one or more
mobile_app_*companion-app devices (picked from a live list). - Buttons — which of Mark done / Snooze / Skip / Open appear, and the snooze duration.
- Style — a walk (sends the first due task, then the next each time you action one) or a single digest summary.
- Auto-send — fire automatically when a matching task becomes overdue / due-soon.
Trigger a notification on demand from any automation with the home_keeper.notify
service (notification: a saved notification, or profile: a saved Profile, optionally
with a target: override); it returns how many tasks matched and which was sent. The
button taps and the standalone
home_keeper.snooze_task / home_keeper.skip_task services all emit events
(home_keeper_task_completed / _snoozed / _skipped) carrying
origin: home_keeper_notification_action, so other automations can react.
