Open door alarm via alexa

How can I set up my Wyze sense to set off an alarm if my doors are left open for more than 10 mins? I know Wyze sends me alerts if my door is left open. I would like an audible alarm so my family will know to close the door. Your help is much appreciated

I can’t find any way to do this with Alexa, Google Home, or IFTTT.
You could set this up in the Wyze app using rules.

You can create a Routine in Alexa which is triggered by the sense being opened. And it could have a wait step. But then I don’t know of a way to test at that point to see if the sense is still open. Maybe someone more familiar with Alexa Routines can help.

This would only make the alarm trigger late. If you opened the door then closed it quickly the alarm would still go off after how long you set the “wait”.
