Setting up a smart exit automation is an effortless way to let your home handle itself

When you walk out the door, you don’t want to worry about whether you turned off the lights, locked the doors, or left the thermostat running


A thoughtfully configured automation ensures every task is handled without your input


Begin by listing the essential tasks you’d like triggered on exit


Most users target lighting, locks, climate remote control smart plug Matter, media devices, and phantom-load appliances as their core exit actions


Keep a simple checklist so your automation covers all critical functions


Pick the most reliable trigger for your lifestyle


Most smart home systems let you activate routines based on location


Once your mobile device exits the predefined boundary around your house, the system activates


A smart lock that detects a lock-after-unlock sequence makes a natural, reliable trigger


The moment the deadbolt turns after being released, your smart home springs into action


Others opt for a dedicated button or voice command, though automatic triggers require less effort


Set up the routine in your smart home app


Find the "Automations," "Scenes," or "Routines" tab and tap "Add New"


Call it "Exit Mode," "Away Mode," or "Leave Home Routine"


Then add each action you listed earlier


Arrange tasks so one doesn’t interfere with another


Ensure the lights dim before the deadbolt engages so you’re not fumbling in the dark


Some systems let you add delays, like waiting 30 seconds after you exit to ensure everyone is truly gone


Simulate your departure multiple times to verify reliability


Step outside and confirm all devices respond as intended


Check network status, user access rights, and geofence boundaries


You can also add safety features


For example, include a notification that says leave home routine activated so you know it worked


Or set up a backup reminder if the routine fails so you get an alert on your phone


Some people even add a short delay that lets them cancel the routine if they forgot something, like their keys or wallet


Review and refine your automation regularly


Your needs will shift as you acquire new tech or alter your schedule


Tweak the sequence when your lifestyle changes


Automation should simplify, not overwhelm


A good leave home routine becomes invisible—it just works, every time


You’ll realize you didn’t know how much mental energy you were wasting


No more second guessing, no more returning home to turn off a light


Just walk out and let your home take care of the rest
