I control the Garage door open/close 2 ways.

Manually triggering by way of a 2450 relay from UD Mobile.

Also, a Program that opens the door, waits a few minutes then closes it. Also by UD Mobile. No problem.

However for the latter, to do so a device was necessary for the "If" statement of the program. I couldn't find a way from UD Mobile to trigger the Program without it. I don't want a physical switch that might be mistakenly pressed leading to problems. I used a 2635-222 On/Off Module to trigger from Mobile. It works, but it's a clumsy costly approach.

I'd like to merely invoke the Program from a Mobile tile.

Thoughts? Thanks

You could use the Virtual plugin to create a "switch" that appears in UD Mobile, and write a program that does what you want if the switch is turned on, etc

Ditto what Guy said. It’s what I do for many automations. One question are you wanting to create a favorite tile in UDM so you do it in one step? If so, virtual device plugin is way to go if not you can use Run Then from the program itself.
