Fun Home Automation Pranks Using Amazon Echo with SmartThings

Here are five original ways to prank your family using your echo dots. My particular smart home automation setup uses SmartThings devices, Alexa Routines and routines in the Echo Speaks app. Echo Speaks is a highly recommended app for SmartThings users and it can be sourced in the SmartThings Community. Echo Speaks can be installed directly into the SmartThings IDE or easily installed using the SmartThings Community Installer. For setup instructions for the SmartThings Community Installer check out my video guide found here: https://youtu.be/yxoI7-9iisA
