I have a Room Lighting app that I use to turn lights off when there is no motion.
I would like to send a message to my phone when this rule turns off the lights.
Can I do this with Room Lighting, or do I have to use Rule Machine?

RL does not have notification support.
You might be able to add an activator to the RL and then trigger the rule on the state changes on the activator device. Might trigger if you just turn off the light manually as well though.
You could also use the Notifications app, super simple to use and will do just what you require in this instance.
I want a notification that the rule has turned off the lights. I don’t think the notification app can distinguish between a rule turning off the lights and manually turning off the lights.
