Need support in your daily life? Ask Alexa to assist you
Home Connect Skills enable Alexa to communicate directly with your connected home appliances.
Would you like to turn on the coffee machine and enjoy your favourite coffee? Just say: “ Alexa, tell my coffee machine to turn on ” and follow it up with: " Alexa, tell my coffee machine I want a large, strong Cappuccino ."
Trying to find a quiet moment at home? Alexa can help you out. If you want to reduce the noise level of the running dishwasher program to, say, a minimum for 30 minutes, just say: " Alexa, ask my dishwasher to start silence on demand " and enjoy your peaceful afternoon.
Want to know what is going on in your home?
Alexa will find out for you. Ask: “ Alexa, ask my washer for the status ”
and she’ll let you know how long the washing machine in the basement has been running for. Need to know when it will finish? “ Alexa, ask my washer when the laundry will be done. ”
Just a few words and you are all caught up.
The best way to prepare a lasagne in your oven? Alexa can help
What temperature? Direct heat or steam? When it comes to oven settings, it sometimes might be hard to figure out what and when would work best. Fortunately, Amazon Alexa is always there to help you, whether it’s your next culinary masterpiece or a quick and simple supper. Ask Alexa how to prepare fresh lasagne, and she’ll recommend the best settings for your oven. And she may start it too – just ask her.
Running low on dishwasher tabs? Alexa’s already on it
No more unexpected trips to the supermarket with Smart Reordering from Alexa. Once Alexa detects the number of dishwasher tabs has dropped below the limit, she can automatically reorder new tabs for you. Alexa can also send you reminders via email, voice or push notification when it's time to refill. At this point, Alexa will ask you whether you’d like to add it to your cart. Once you agree, you can review the details and complete the purchase at your convenience. Simple, but effective.
