in the upper right corner. - Select
Homey
→Virtual Switch

- In the When section, select
Add Card
→Home

→Turned on
. - In the Then section, add another Flow card by selecting
Add Card
→Home
→Virtual Switch
→Turn off
→ confirm. - Save your new Flow.
- Head over to the Google Home app and sync your devices by pulling down until a refresh icon appears.
- The Virtual Switch should now be listed among your other devices. You can rename it to better suit your needs.
You can now invoke your flow by saying Hey Google, turn on the Virtual Switch
or manually pressing the device icon.
