Notify you when a cycle is done, but you could do that with a vibration sensor over zigbee and home assistant, or an outlet power monitor.

People simply don't understand there are other low-band wireless local communication protocols other than wifi and maybe IR, and that is completely taken advantage of by companies who deal in user data.

That's so odd to me, too. I'm notified when the buzzer goes off. I would hear the buzzer before I heard my phone.

And who needs to be notified immediately when a cycle is done? I'm lucky if my laundry doesn't sit there for hours after I've heard the buzzer and said to myself, I should do that laundry.
