Hi @lwfitzgerald, thank you for the suggestion. :) Definitely a great idea, I'll look into this. Does the counter get updated for triple clicks as well?
Yep, and for four clicks.
Three click event:

Hi @lwfitzgerald,
that's incredible. Does it work for all buttons, or only for the "on" one?

It works for all four buttons on the remote.

Hi @lwfitzgerald,
that's really nice to know. I'll take a look at this useful feature, which will significantly simplify the handling of double press events, at least for Zigbee2MQTT. I'll let you know as soon as it gets implemented.
Thank you for the great suggestion! :)
any update here?
Also interested in this. Would be handy functionality to have.
Blueprint name:
philips_324131092621
zigbee2mqtt
natively includes a button press count in the state it sends to Home Assistant for the Phillips Hue dimmer switch (324131092621). This could be used for detecting double presses.Here is an example Home Assistant event on a double press. Note the
counter
field.
