How this automation works

Control Alexa routines hands-free by linking your My Leviton button presses to Voice Monkey triggers. This Applet runs when you press a chosen button on your Leviton switch, sending a signal to Alexa Voice Monkey to start your routine. It’s perfect for automating smart home scenes, such as starting movies or setting lighting moods right from the wall switch.
