Bravo! I’ve been walking pass my tv for months with the urge to tell alexa to turn it on or turn it off and thinking I couldn’t! Imagine my complete delight to find that I just needed to download the correct app and add the skill!

like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, kzbin.infoUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....

I would recommend going to your play store to be sure it's installed on the device. Do this by opening the Play Store, then search for SmartThingsApp. Select the app and you should have an ‘Install’ button to select. If it’s already installed on the device then it will say ‘Open’ instead. Tap this to be taken to the app. Still having issues? If your Playstore account is logged into the computer, you can also visit this link here where you’ll be taken to the Desktop version of the PlayStore. This allows you to push an install on any of your mobile devices without even using your phone. play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smartthings.android&hl=en_US

I'm hooked up to DISH, via their Joey (for this secondary TV). It turns the TV on perfectly, but when turning it off, it turns it off as directed, but doesn't turn off the bouncing DISH screensaver. Hmmm! So I just push the bottom little red "TV" button directly under the somewhat larger "power" red button (on DISH remote). Wallah! Mine is a 3 y.o. 65" Samsung Smart TV. This is great. Now, can you do a video on getting Alexa to control your security system?

You can try, things will work or not depending on the TVs level of integration.

2016 have limited ability, mine is a 2018 and only can do the basics. Go wireless, then you should be able to at least turn it back on.

Both alexa app and smartthings app are installed and signed in. Samsung smart tv is already added in smartthings app. But i can't able to locate smartthings in Alexa skills and games. I tried with all possible ways. Does the alexa does not support smartthings skill set now. Please guide how to connect alexa with samsung smart tv.
