Is it possible to force a scan/update of device trackers?
I’ve seen the device_tracker.see service, but this appears to spoof the device tracker to a particular place/zone.
Basically, I use ping and home assistant android location tracking, my wife only uses ping.
I have a sensor on my front door.
I planned on making the door sensor trigger an update of the device trackers, rather than waiting for when they next update by themselves, this should mean I will be recognised as home within seconds rather than minutes.Is there a way? or is there any plans to add this service?
I think the other option I have is add a third tracker - Monitor (bluetooth) as this appears to allow me to set it up to manually scan whenever I like.
It’s just the WAF that doesn’t fly with this “I’m not having PIs all around the bloody house!”. After I get a 3D printer I may see if it’s possible to run monitor on ESP32s as these are less bulky and easier to hide!
