Devices I have: [LIGHTS, PLUGS, THERMOSTAT, SPEAKER, LOCKS, ETC. AND THEIR APPS]
What I want to happen: [DESCRIBE]
Who lives here: [PEOPLE, PETS]
Write the routine as a list of triggers and actions I can enter in my app. Suggest a simple backup in case Wi-Fi goes down and a few settings that protect my privacy. Tell me which parts depend on the app I use, because menus differ between apps.
Tip: Start with one routine and use it for a week before adding more.
