Start iRobot cleaning when you leave home
How this automation works
Automate your home lighting and voice routines when your iRobot encounters an issue. This Applet runs when your iRobot reports that it is stuck, activating a Nanoleaf scene and triggering an Alexa routine through Alexa Actions by mkZense. Perfect for keeping your environment responsive and helpful when maintenance is needed. Customize the message to fit your tone.
