Text Me When Too Hot
How this automation works
Automate your smart home comfort by connecting Wireless Tag events with Alexa Voice Monkey routines. This runs whenever your KumoApp instance logs a specific message type from your Wireless Tag, then triggers a chosen Alexa routine through Voice Monkey. Perfect for maintaining room temperature balance or reacting automatically to environmental changes.
