Turn off dishwasher and notify when water leak is detected

Connect

How this automation works

Protect your kitchen by automatically turning off your dishwasher and sending immediate alerts when water is detected. This Applet runs when your SwitchBot Water Detector senses a leak, triggering actions to deactivate your Smart Life scene, notify you via WhatsApp, and send an alert email through Gmail. Perfect for avoiding water damage and automating safety in connected homes. Customize the message to fit your tone.
