How this automation works

Control your Alexa routines with a simple press on your myStrom Button. This Applet runs whenever your button is pressed, whether it's a single, double, or long press, and sends the selected Alexa routine trigger through Alexa Actions by mkZense. Perfect for quick home automation control without opening the Alexa app or speaking a command.
