Scenario: Forgotten garage door to close automatically
Set up an automation in your home automation system: when you and your partner leave the house (via GPS/location tracking), the system automatically checks if the garage door is still open. If it is, the THIRDREALITY Smart Garage Door Opener sends a close command and you receive a push notification as confirmation. This combines ease of use with security – perfect for the Dutch smart home.
