How this automation works

Automate your smart home setup by linking your Android device notifications with Wink and Apilio. This Applet runs when your Android device receives a notification from a specified app containing a chosen keyword, triggering your selected Wink shortcut and updating an Apilio variable to true. Perfect for coordinating smart home actions, alerts, or routines based on notifications.
