how do you get sensor.phone

I would like to accomplish the same. But I don't have a sensor.phone which goes to Idle, Dialing, ringing etc. I have an iOS device too, and use the latest iOS app version.

I figured out a sensor.activity, but it shows "walking, standby, unknown" states. Tried calling, but it wont change the state to dialing or ringing.

Very curious on how you did this :)

The sensor.phone is related to my landline fritz.box, not mobile phone

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks @adonno
