Although we have discussed automation and digital assistants in the past (see previous episodes), we haven\u2019t discussed the actual process of setting up those automations to increase your home\/life efficiency. In this episode of Brothers in Tech, the brothers walk through several examples of how to pair up some triggers and actions in both Amazon\u2019s Alexa and Apple\u2019s HomeKit apps. Tune in to learn about the process, and hopefully spark some ideas of ways of bringing automation into your home. And, even though the \u201cLet\u2019s Rock\u201d automation didn\u2019t work for us at the end of the show\u2026have no fear, we realized after the show what we did wrong (changed the set-up earlier in the show!).
