Oooooor you could just use ‘ping’ in HA and check whether the IP address of your phone is up in your local network. If so, have an automation in HA with lights and stuff…I am using this method since 5 years…works well. The only thing that you need to do is to fix an IP address in your router to the mac address of your phone.
