Wouldn't it be great if you can cycle through scenes by simply clicking a button so that you and your partner can easily change the ambiance of your room? This is actually not very difficult to do and super handy. You only need a smart button for this like this Zigbee button, but any other button that you can connect to Home Assistant will do. This tutorial explains exactly how to create a toggle button to cycle through scenes in Home Assistant to switch between various ambiances in a room.
