Hello, 

   I am attempting to open an app called YoLink when I am within a set range of my home. In hopes that the garage door will open when I am on the bike, and I don't have to take my eyes off the road. It seems the app will open, but the action portion will not allow the 'Open Door' button to be activated. Am I missing something, or does the phrase 'Open an app or do an app action' not apply to all apps or functionality in the app?

@userxJ83RI71ms The developers of that app would need to implement that feature with a hook to Samsung routines so that Samsung routines could access it.

Even if you create a custom routine, I highly doubt that'd have it unlock. Like commenter said itd have to go through the dev first. Tbh I think dev doesn't have this feature due to security, which I can appreciate.
