With Android you can also switch it to high accuracy mode to force an update every X seconds, and have that handled by an automation

hey @heavy agate when you says "Connected WiFi sensor of the Android app is also very fast." do you mean the router integration or is there something else im missing?

heavy agate
#

Do you use the Android app?

sudden cargo
#

like can i make the app detect my wifi ssid faster than the router

#

yeah i do

#

SO uses iPhone though, but lets focus on me :p

heavy agate
#

You can turn that into a device tracker, or use it directly

sudden cargo
#

oh the wifi_connection is the SSID

#

not just connected or not

heavy agate
#

Yup

sudden cargo
#

i'll have to try this! ty!

#

i have a small handful of unused ESP32 i bought many years ago thinking "i'll find a use for these some day" :p

# 
default:
          - service: mqtt.publish
            data:
              topic: location/YOU_wifi
              payload: 'not_home'
              retain: true
#

will this ever override other zones that use gps?

heavy agate
#

Well, no, because you create a new device tracker

#

Your other device trackers are unaffected

sudden cargo
#

i see, thanks! i'll try this out!

#

also wow

#

your config is laid out so well

#

im totally going to copy your directory structure

#

just tested it, wow that connection update latency is blazing compared to the unifi integration!

#

now i just need to figure out something for my SO (who uses iPhone)
