Announce with Alexa when MyQ garage door opens
How this automation works
Automate your Alexa smart routine based on your room’s temperature. This runs whenever a selected LightwaveRF thermostat reports a temperature below your chosen threshold, triggering your Alexa Voice Monkey routine. Perfect for keeping rooms comfortably warm or alerting you when temperatures fall unexpectedly. Note: This requires configuration of your Alexa Voice Monkey routine.
