[@amandajohnson4428]

I absolutely love these tutorials. Thanks for recommending “follow up”. I paused the video to add. I’ve been using routines more and they are a life saver. Not really a morning person, but I do look forward to having Alexa play John Legend “Good Morning” as my alarm. And having the lights come on at a certain time is Amazing. My new favorite is my smart plug that I’ve connected my Christmas lights to. You can’t tell me jack, when the lights come on🤣🤣🤣 keep the videos coming. I love them💗

[@SabrinaLatoya]

Yass Girl!! You’re a tech queen!! Love to see it!!

[@manovnanarcisse7266]

They choose the perfect person to do this sponsorship! When I tell you I love these videos! When I get that money, I will definitely purchase the robot.

[@SabrinaLatoya]

Awe thank you

[@mosaicstylewmichaelmonreau424]

Im always tuned in but I need to comment more. I would like a tutorial like this one on setting up the automatic lights in your home. Also the warning lights and wake up lights on your headboard. I’m looking to invest in those things and would love a walk through

[@SabrinaLatoya]

I appreciate you running in 🙏🏾! I will put that on my video list!

[@shacheb]

I have a smart vac and it definitely changed my life. Love it so much. I’ve been thinking about getting one with the mop feature. Thanks for this video.

[@SabrinaLatoya]

Couldn’t live without a smart vacuum! It cleans when I wasn’t even thinking of it and I need that lol 😅

[@kstrina755]

I have been watching your videos and getting so many ideas. I am literally moving Friday April 15 and I want incorporate almost all of your ideas. You have came close to my goal decor and smart home and now all I have to do is show these videos. Thank you 😊

[@SabrinaLatoya]

Thanks for watching 🥰

[@jacquelinek22]

Thanx.. I set up the - find my phone.

[@nikaquiambao]

Love the drop in feature because when I need my boys to come to where I am, I don’t need to yell their name. Or if I want them to do something, like change for karate, I can announce it. I’ve had Alexa since she was released and I love her so much.

[@SabrinaLatoya]

Love the announce feature as well!!! It’s so useful! Love to see people using all her great features!

[@KoKoCola82]

You know how we all have friends/family that are good or talented at doing certain things that we can’t, so you go to that SPECIFIC PERSON for help in that area?? Well, Sabrina is SO MULTI-TALENTED and EFFICIENT, that I’m sure she is the GO-TO person for her friends and family!! I enjoy EVERY one of your uploads. Your content is so useful and I love to share your videos to whoever I know will benefit from your insight. They always thank me for it. 🙌🏽 So, I’m sending you a big 🗣”THANK YOU” from me and mine 🙏🏽🤍

[@SabrinaLatoya]

Aweee thank you for sharing my videos!! 🥲I’m glad my videos are useful at least! I just wanted to share as much stuff as I love with other people! I appreciate you for watching 🥰

[@niddlershepherd44]

Your one of my most favorite KZbinrs ever! Thank you for the videos you make!

[@lilpinksox18]

I’m the worst at tech stuff but when you post these videos I feel like I can do anything 🙌🏾🥲

[@SabrinaLatoya]

You can!!! It’s easier than you think!

[@lexhimself876]

I'm an artist 🎨 that loves anything modern and when I saw you videos i was like "who sent you"... Love it... i jst started on my DIY ish too (lightnings). keep your foot on em neck girl✊🏽😎

[@ingridb.5310]

Perfect timing for Black Friday

[@lexhimself876]

Yow, i know righ

[@BeautyNaturelle]

Girl, this video is CLUTCH. Appreciate you transparently sharing

[@alexfrenchgirl]

Sabrina thank you so much, I had no idea you can control the roomba with your smart home device! This is legit a game changer.

[@fine9ja]

Smart vacuum/mop is genius. I need it to be in use right now as I'm laying on my couch watching KZbin. It's on my wishlist.

[@SabrinaLatoya]

The mopping feature is a game changer in smart vacuum world 🙌🏾

[@_iamthebeauty1092]

OMG!! I NEEDED this video. You literally have no idea! Thank you!!

[@ThePanzoAdventures]

Great video on how to setup routines.

[@DeidraAnn]

Girl!!! I'm loving all of your content. I just found your channel and I LOVE IT! Keep it coming.

[@q.Shippp]

Your videos are so dope. I’ve had my echo dot for a few years but I just got a show a few months ago. Love it ! I drop in on my five year old all the time lol

[@SabrinaLatoya]

The show is a nice step up from the dot and it’s so great to be able to use your phone to drop it with it!!

[@mzcaramel]

Ummm I feel attacked...."I'm pretty sure you are only using her for the weather and to play some music" lol accurate!

[@jocelynnhunnicutt8660]

Just found your channel, so in love already!! Your voice is so calming, I’m here to stay! 🤍

[@denisejo10462]

You make devices look so easy!!!!!

[@elisewool3934]

Your videos are so helpful. I’m a bit obsessed. Can the robot vacuum clean a shag carpet under a bed?

[@lexhimself876]

I just grabbed the Yeedi on the cyber Monday sale for half the price😁😁... patiently waited 👐🏼

[@SabrinaLatoya]

Yass!! That’s how you do it! That sale was too good to pass up! I actually really love my vacuum!

[@hausofrlateish]

I like the idea of having a robot vacuum. Will be something I'll look more into, in the near future.

[@snippetsofpam184]

Lmaooo her then bf shaking his head lol

[@ashleybrenda___]

Your channel is so chill I love the vibe. Keep going girl 😊

[@SabrinaLatoya]

Thank you!! ☺️

[@alexiscf1384]

I also love your tech videos!

[@SabrinaLatoya]

Thank you 🙏🏾!

[@dezree07]

Great vids. Thank you so much for your insight. In another vid the lights blinked when the Alexa timer went off. Did you set this up using IFTTT, SmartThings or Alexa? I love this automation. It is great for the elderly (when cooking) or persons who cannot hear the timer. Please add this tutorial to your vids list.

[@SabrinaLatoya]

I used IFTTT for the lights and timer 😉

[@quiaful]

She has a whisper feature that’s why it didn’t work hahah. I like it but she doesn’t follow through with it when you do it, only for the first command. I think you can set it to whisper at certain times though not completely sure on that.

[@michellem6206]

Excellent!!!

[@kdiva2u559]

Now that’s what I call an unboxing!!! 🥰

[@92lilie]

Hihi!! Just added an Alexa to my Christmas wish list 😍😍

[@amandahodgkinson3278]

Question: I have Alexa and use her with all my smart devices. I just started learning about NFC tags and using them to automate, how can I set up my home kit with my smart devices? If they aren’t compatible is there a way to make them?

[@michellefambrough423]

I just watched your latest video on your new tech gadgets which led me to this one!! But I am now convinced that you are Tony Stark from the Avengers!! Lol!! 😂

[@SabrinaLatoya]

😂😂

[@SakuraGamingUK]

Can you please do a tutorial on the lights changing colour when you need to leave, thanks ✌

[@kec01bla]

Hey Sabrina, I'm pretty old school so all this tech is new to me. It makes me wanna buy everything to set up my home but I won't bc it's a lot. Lol! Love your personality as well.

[@SabrinaLatoya]

You can always start off small! An Alexa or Google or apple home kit are easy and affordable smart tech!

[@kec01bla]

@@SabrinaLatoya You're right. I'll try it and let you know.

[@lamorena716]

Sabrina Thank you so much for the helpful information it saved me Do you think that you can help me out with how you get Alexa to say goodbye and hello to you when you come in and leave

[@ReviewsandGreatLifeStyle]

I’m old and had to watch this video a few times to get things set up… but how do I have her say coffee is ready when she’s done brewing my coffee?

[@itsshawanna]

Sabrina girl thank you this was super helpful. Can you do a routine on how Alexa can greet you coming in and just more ways to use Alexa effectively thanks love bug

[@SabrinaLatoya]

I sure can!!!

[@AshleyExplainsIt_All]

Question. For you wake up routine do you have to speak to your echo or does it just start? I just got a google home and was trying to set up a routine and it wouldn't work without a voice command. I might be taking this back to get an echo.... childee so mad.. lol love your videos! super helpful.

[@SabrinaLatoya]

It just starts automatically! I’m sure Google does the same! I’ll look into it my parents have Google in their home!

[@jasmynsreality]

💕💕

[@fine9ja]

That Echo/Alexis device is too smart. It had an attitude for asking more than 2 questions lol. I'm still not convinced in buying one. It kind of reminds me of that creepy weird movie called Her.

[@SabrinaLatoya]

Lol I get the concern! It’s all in fun!

[@Legacy_125]

I just say Alex

[@gerylclavesillas8211]

I bought an echo dot 4th gen but found out that there is no option to customize “Alexa Say’s” … I wanted to have that customized morning routine greeting from Alexa… 😭😭😭😭

[@SabrinaLatoya]

All my Alexas are capable of doing customized greetings. I have the Echo dot 4th gen as well.
