LG webOS TVWorksCreates switches that show custom toast messages on the TV
Saved copy
If you have homebridge set up, you can use the lg-webos-tv plugin to create a switch that will display a custom toast (pop up) on your screen. I use this to notify me when doors or windows are open, certain events happen, etc. As far as I know there is no limit to the number of messages you can create.
