How this automation works

Save energy and secure your home by automatically turning off your lights and air conditioner when you exit an area. This Applet runs when your phone detects you've left a specified location, shutting down your connected LIFX lights and GE Appliances Window AC. It's perfect for busy families or anyone who wants a smarter, more efficient home setup.
