Hi there, I have a door sensor that signals for my Wyze Cam OG to turn on the siren if triggered during a certain time frame. However, occasionally I need to open the door during that time period. I can turn off the siren from the app on my phone but I don’t see a way to prevent it from starting …

I saw this from a while back, it might help? [image] Is it possible to add a rule action delay? Services & Integrations I have the following rule: [image] Is there any chance I can delay the Wyze plug from turning on for like 5 seconds? So when the door opens → wait 5 s…

That could work! I just setup Alexa and haven’t played with the routines yet. Since I have Wyze rules and macrodroid macros, I hate to introduce a 3rd variable, but maybe I could move away from rules in the Wyze app. Thanks for pointing me on that direction!

[image] stephen7: Option 1: Have a shortcut on my phone (or even just in the app that is very easily and quickly The only way to disable a rule is thru the Edit Rules dialogue. There is no snooze or pause functionality and no way to modify active\inactive status like thru another Shortcut Rul…

Thanks so much. It looks like Alexa might work (I realized I have several routines that I had forgotten about). I’m still looking into some of the settings in Alexa but I’m trying to find a way to have have a “beep” sound that would play for 5 seconds to alert me that the alarm will sound, then ha…

Alexa is a bit limited in the sounds that can be played, but playing a single sound several times in a routine before a wait command should produce the audible countdown with delay you are seeking. I have found that MacroDroid is highly dependant on outside input to trigger macros. Because it monit…

Ok, I’ve played around with a few settings but I’m still not getting the right setup. With Wyze I can get it to send the door being opened and then turn on an alarm on my camera or turn on a switch with an alarm plugged in. But no way to delay this to allow it to be “disarmed” before sounding. Ale…

I think the IFTTT solution that Slabslayer talked about above may be the best solution, but it may be $2.50-$5.00 a month for the the ones that offer nested “IF” statements. I think you can try them out for free for a limited time to see if it works though. [image] Plans & Pricing - IFTTT …

[image] stephen7: Macrodroid is probably the way to go, … I can’t figure out how to get macrodroid to know anything the state of embassy devices without notifications from Wyze. If I could have a Wyze rule to alert my phone when a Wyze light is turned on and macrodroid could wait x seconds for t…

Hopefully stephen7 has another Wyze plug to test the above scenario! I think it could work, but would it be reliable (AWS servers could be a problem)? I guess a Wyze rule “shortcut” could be used to turn OFF the plug that actually plugs into the wall socket if they want to quickly bypass the siren…

Stephen7, Did you get a chance to try the stacked Wyze Plug solution?
