Announce with Alexa when MyQ garage door opens
How this automation works
Automatically start an Alexa routine as soon as your GE Appliances oven finishes preheating. This Applet runs when your oven reports that it has reached the preheat temperature, then triggers a selected Voice Monkey routine through Alexa Voice Monkey. Perfect for home cooks who want their Alexa system to announce or assist when the oven is ready for use.
