Last night all of the sudden Alexa started doing this many times in a few minutes to all my Zwave devices. It has not done it before. What gives? Last night it appeared on a couple of devices. This morning all of them. Thanks [4D23876C-AC6E-47E3-A46F-B93A1B6B14E9]

Never mind. I logged in to the alexa.amazon.com with Windows PC and was able to load the web interface. The iOS devices forces the app download. Thanks this is great. I’m attempting to FORGET all the devices and rediscover to see if that solves the refresh issue

I saw that last night my Amazon Alexa app for iOS was updates. In the release notes notes it said: “The updated Alexa App Smart Smart Home section lets users rename, view the state of, and control smart lights, locks and thermostats.” Is this to make sure the state is updated periodically?

I wonder if this is for the new Echo Plus, which DOES allow for direct control of Zigbee devices. I am not near my devices right now, but I don’t believe the native integration allows you to poll the status of a device…does it?

Only way I’ve found to resolve this is to remove the device from smartthings completely and re-add it. Then do a discovery in the Alexa app. Having the same problem here with all Arlo and Sengled connected bulbs: [image] Alexa refresh commands every 10 min Connected Things …

I had a light set off to go on and off with the sun. It has worked flawlessly except this morning it did not shut off. And I noticed that it was told to go off the same time Alexa sent a refresh command to the switch. The switch did not turn off. I believe because of this Alexa refresh command.

All the same issues here, as above. My automated lights for outside missed started missing the defined schedules to turn off, right after this Alexa update. Also, I’m very frustrated that I cannot seem to “forget”a device in the Amazon app anymore. You can only disable it. This is ridiculous since I…

Amazon started about 5 of my 30 devices? All devices are on Amazon. My SmartThings only has Amazon Alexa App. For Amazon, I only have SmartThings enabled in the SmartHome (no other), so it is (by design) a minimal installation. Considering the platform bog-downs that frequently occur, I am very…

Just wanted to chime in on this. Spoke with amazon support - the ability to delete devices in the alexa app is not coming back per the rep. You can however login to the alexa web interface and the delete option is still present and works properly.

Don’t know but I can tell you those refreshes were showing up in my logs way before this Alexa app update. There are other threads in here talking about it.
