How this automation works
Automatically activate your Wink shortcut when your Arlo camera detects motion. This Applet runs whenever any selected Arlo device senses movement and turns on a preconfigured Wink scene while also sending you an email update. Ideal for enhancing security and ensuring you’re informed any time motion is captured by your Arlo system. Customize the message to fit your tone.
