Make your Home Smarter with Automations

It’s pretty impressive to just yell-out a command to your Amazon Echo/Alexa device and have a light turn-on or off, or music start to play.

But face it, in todays day and age a smarthome should be smart than shouting-out commands. A smarthome would know if you walked into a room or open a certain door that you may want these sorts of things to happen automatically!

This video will show you the basics of how to automate your home with Alexa Routines and smarthome devices.

Of course, #1, you’ll need an Amazon Echo device with a built-in (zigbee) Smart-Hub.

Not ALL Echo devices have the Smart-Hub built-in.

Here are the ones that include the built-in smart hub: (the prices are approx. at time of video)

Amazon will release newer Echo devices in the future!
