How this automation works

Control your home security and entryways with a simple voice command through Google Assistant. This Applet runs when you say a specific scene phrase such as 'Okay Google, activate home access,' triggering both your SmartThings lock and Tailwind garage door to act. It’s ideal for hands-free home management and secure access control through Google Assistant.
