Looking for a new hardware switch

Hey guys my girlfriend hates everything about smart home and she hates it to have to talk with Alexa or Siri for enabling the bath mode. And that's the reason why i need your help. I am looking for a good hardware switch to set my bath mode on/off.
My requirements:
-Should work very good with homey or via http
-Needs a good range ( between homey and the switch are 5-10 m with 2 walls)
-The battery should work over a long time without changes
I think it should be a solution like Logitech pop (i don't know much about the range) or z-wave, zigbee.
Maybe someone of you could help me with their experience !!!

https://forum.athom.com/discussion/3463/wip-mco-home-app-v0-0-0#latestI use to enable the bath here mode a Samsung remote on my Logitech Harmony. Works good too and you have a lot more buttons. But if talking to a speaker/Homey is too much work maybe aiming to a remote is too.
@walter i need a solution without power cable

App will be in the App Store after the weekend
or the Remotec Scene Master to set more modes / moods....
I can't help myself thinking about 'Private Henk' every time I see this name
In the meantime I submitted the Hank app to the app store, see also the forum topic
