Send Smart Home Notifications via WhatsApp, Signal, or Telegram with Home Assistant 🚀
Hey everyone,
I just uploaded a new video on my YouTube channel where I show how to send smart home notifications with Home Assistant directly to WhatsApp, Signal, or Telegram.
👉 The video itself is in German, but YouTube’s auto-generated English subtitles are pretty solid and make it easy to follow along even if you don’t speak German.

Would love to hear your feedback and if you’ve tried something similar with Home Assistant! 🙌

I use the Telegram Bot and it sends text and media to the members of that Telegram group. It's been working for years, mainly for priority messages when the alarm triggers, together with pictures from the CCTV cameras.
