What do you need for Intruder Alert?

Smart Bulbs: We are using a couple of smart bulbs for our table lamps. Also, we have smart switches to turn on the room light. Multicolor Lamps: We have also demonstrated the video with Gove Floor Lamp that supports multiple light effects, and you can choose one match here. The Govee lamp supports multiple light effects, and they do have a bunch of Alexa Supports lights that you can try. Instead of the Gove lamp, you can use your Alexa-supported smart lamps here. This is pretty much all you need. You can have a minimum of one smart lamp to test this setup and add more to it once it starts working. Before we start, make sure you power up all these smart home devices and connect these smart lamps to Alexa.

Setup The Alexa Device for Intruder Alert

You can enable the Motion Alert by going to the Echo Device’s settings. There is an option to customize the sensitivity and the range of the Alexa Motion detection.

Alexa Intruder Alert Routine

Make sure you select the right Alexa Device that you placed in the room where you want the Alert and detect the motion. Also, ask Alexa to change the wake word to something like “echo.” So the Alexa devices won’t respond to normal Alexa wake-up word. After this, the volume set back to volume 5 back to normal or your desired volume setting. Here is the screenshot of all the steps in three screenshots below. These steps are a bit long. This is a sample routine we set for Intruder Alert. You can customize this routine based on your smart device and smart locks compatible with Alexa.

Intruder Alert with Alexa Video

Our team published a video of this feature with more realistic light effects and actions. Look at this video, where Alexa Motion Detector is set as an Intruder Alert. I hope you enjoyed this video and the article. You don’t need to make these steps exactly. Consider this a sample, and you can make your own Intruder Alert home with Alexa.
