"SmartThings Classic" vs "SmartThings (Samsung Connect)"

If you’re looking for something that won’t be yanked out from under you, I personally wouldn’t have wink on my candidates list. :wink:

As far as audible alerts, Echo has pretty much solved this now, and it works well with smartthings as long as you don’t need it to be local. The only thing is you do need a virtual device which is both a switch and a contact sensor, and to be honest I’m just not sure if that works with the new app or not. If it does, you’re all set for that feature. And in any case my guess would be that Amazon will add the ability to trigger an Amazon routine (not a SmartThings routine) from a switch in the next few months, which then simplifies everything again.
