Modified on Thu, 2 Mar, 2023 at 9:05 AM

If you live in a community with Smart Home features, LittleBird will send you notifications regarding your sensor devices. You can easily customize your preferences for these notifications through the LittleBird mobile app.

Enable/Disable your sensor

Open the LittleBird mobile app on your mobile device.
Browse to the My Home (house) icon in the navigation bar. You’ll see all of your smart sensors under the sensors section.
Locate the specific sensor by name that you would like to enable/disable. I.e “door sensor”
Once you have located the specific sensor you would like to enable/disable, simply tap on the sensor icon in the specific sensor’s panel.

Once the indicator text switches from ENABLED to DISABLED, or vice versa, the process is complete.

Manage your notification methods

Open the LittleBird mobile app on your mobile device.
Browse to the My Home (house) icon in the navigation bar.
Under the Sensors section, tap the Expand (v) button on your desired sensor’s panel. The sensor’s setting panel will appear.
Tap Edit.
In the Manage Notifications section, tap the selection boxes for App, SMS, and Email according to your preferences. A check mark will appear in the selection boxes you chose.

Note: If you’d like to stop a certain notification type, tap the checked notification box next to the notification method you’d like to discontinue. The check mark will disappear and the notification method will discontinue.

Once you’re satisfied with your changes, tap the Close (x) button. You’ll be returned to the My Home screen.

Put your sensor in Do Not Disturb mode

If you wish to discontinue your sensor’s notifications for any period of time, you can put the sensor in Do Not Disturb mode.

While still looking at the Sensors section of the My Home screen, tap the Expand (v) button on your desired sensor’s panel. The sensor’s setting panel will appear.
Tap the Do not disturb toggle. The toggle will indicate an active status and a Sleep (zzz) icon will appear on the sensor’s panel.

Note: If you’d like to continue receiving notifications for your sensor, tap the Do not disturb toggle again. The toggle will indicate an inactive status and the Sleep (zzz) icon will disappear from the sensor’s panel.
