Great video, thank you. I Love Alexa Routines but really wish they would go one step further so actions can be triggered only when multiple criteria are met (If temperature is below something and window is open then do this). It seems like a massive gap.

Brian, good video. 3 points though. 1. you have been able to change echo music groups volume without a routine. "alexa, everywhere group volume 4 (or) volume up/down". 2. Routines are the only way to make a stereo pair work as an alarm clock with music. 3. Still desperately waiting on your upcoming video for motion sensors that work with echo hubs:)

You'll have to disable or disconnect the service, OR delete the product from the manufacturer's app. If that's not working, and/or you have done those things, then just disable the device. It won't come back anymore. Disabling happens in the same place you delete it :)

@AutomateYourLife I've disabled before removing and that's worked now great cheers. I do have one problem with my amazon buttons the dot they are paired with makes a beep before responding to the routine half the time but not all the time this slows response and as they are supposed to be for turning lights on and off its annoying.

9:00 an even better trick I set up is to make a virtual switch in smartthings that alexa picks up. You turn that on when smartthings detects you're out of the house and you turn that off when smartthings detects you're back. I then hooked this up to turn on guard, and run my ecovacs .

Thanks for the video. I have set routine for my outdoors lights to go on at sunset and a routine to go off at sunrise. The issue I’m having is that lights go on at sunset but sometime in the middle of the night the outdoor light are off. I then turn them back on and then they’ll go off at sunrise. I can’t figure out why it will not stay on until sunrise. Any suggestions? Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you

@AutomateYourLife Жыл бұрын
I would suggest that you look at the routines in Amazon's app, because there is a history tab. That would tell you if a routine had run sometime between the sunset routine Turning them on and you finding out that they were off. I would also check the manufacturers app in case you have an automation there or another app.

Great job again, Brian. I use a lot of routines, but not many for music or Fire TVs, but I need to get going on those. Thanks for the "push." and keep them coming. One of my favorite triggers is the "An alarm is dismissed" which works great for those of us who aren't on a set daily schedule. You can have it do all the usual stuff whenever you silence any alarm you have set, regardless of the time. That way you can get the lights throughout the house and other things going like a weather report, etc. The copy is great when you have a lot of actions on a routine...I just need to remember it! Thanks again.

I do household sharing and the person I do that with also has a profile on my Alexa login, and this results in them having two voice profiles - this is a bug that desperately needs to be squashed. Either, they need to be able to access everything when they log in via their Amazon login to Alexa (they currently can't see everything when they do that), or Amazon needs to let me associate an Alexa profile on my account with an Amazon account of someone in my household.

I knew they were coming because they work sometimes and not another but now I have a feeling they're there forever. She's trying to outrun her little brother Google but I think she still going to have to really keep running.

I think you’ll appreciate this: I use this trick to create routines to unlock my Wyze lock. You’d say “that’s not possible” but it is, because the custom field in Alexa routines speaks with the same cadence Alexa does. This allows you to use punctuation to stretch out the command to include the response to the question that you know Alexa will ask you. So if you create a routine saying unlock Wyze lock and then a few commas and then spell out the numbers one at a time for your Alexa Wyze lock voice enabled code it works! I use this to have an NFC tag unlock my Wyze lock. My custom field looks like this in Alexa “Unlock front door, , , one two three four”
