Just an idea. Looks good tho
Yeah...most of the time I just use my iphone to control the remote and unfortunately you can't change the profiles via the phone.

I think the key is to shorten the profile time frame...switch the outlet to another steady condition after the profile has completed rather than leave it in that profile. Here is what I ended up doing:

profile 1 ramps from 0 to 20% over 60 minutes

LED virtual outlet was set to from 07:00 to 22:00 to be in Profile 1 (so from 08:00 to 22:00 the leds are at 20%).

Instead use this:
profile 1 ramps from 0 to 20% over 60 minutes
profile 2 ramps from 20% to 20% over 0 minutes

Then LED virtual outlet is set from 07:00 to 08:00 to be in Profile 1
and from 08:00-20:00 to be in Profile 2.

That way if it is changed from manual mode to auto mode during the day, when it is switched back to manual mode, it will run in Profile 2 (20%)...rather than Profile 1 which restarts at 0% and takes an hour to get back to 20%.

Hope that makes sense.
