Ok, just starting to dabble in the world of IFTTT so wanted to bounce these questions off of the resident experts here.

1) Is it possible to use IFTTT (or anything) so that when my wife's and my iphone leaves "home" it will automagically txt message a specific number with a specific message? Example: When we both leave home, txt message (123) 456-7890 the word "Arm" or something so that it automatically arms my home alarm?

2) Using IFTTT, does it work with Amazon Echo and Wink so that I could say "Alexa, turn off the front lights" and it would do that?

3) Using IFTTT and the Harmony Hub, I can turn on my TV and turn it off, correct? But that's about it, I think. I can't say "Alexa, Turn on the TV and go to ESPN" can I?

Ok thanks!

You can without a doubt have your security\control system trigger events with geofencing. Not sure about your DMP panel but I know others do.

I just started creating my own recipe on IFTTT but I can set it that when MY cell leaves a certain location to text MYSELF but that doesn't help me. I need it to text a # that's not my own.

Android or iOS? If Android, use the "Android SMS" channel.
