Me too. And it's going to get a LOT more so. I'm working on a new
generation of the product that will be much more streamlined and open up 40+ more device types and eliminate the need for "treat as". I hope to release an alpha or beta in the coming weeks for those that want to give it a shot. HBB will still be fully intact as this will become an entirely new plugin, but I'm excited as I see it starting to shape up. Super excited.

I refuse to add any security device to Alexa, she doesn't do anything to protect you. At least Siri will require a passcode so that an intruder cannot yell "Hey Siri, lock the front door" (as happened early in release), you put that on Alexa and anyone can yell at your house to get access.
