V4 Teaser Alert # 6
Who needs the phone to change Smart app settings?
EchoSistant is the first app to introduce voice activated smart app settings *. @JDRoberts this one goes out to you. I wish I could help you get this installed for you.
Alexa tell Home to enable/disable the conversation. This command stops Alexa from asking follow up questions (E.G. would you like anything else?)
Alexa tell Home to enable/disable the feedback. This command mutes Alexa responses. You can still give commands, but Alexa will not provide any feedback on the actions that have been taken.
Alexa enable/disable short answers. This command enables Alexa’s short answers module (for example, regular Alexa answer is: would you like anything else?; the short answer version is: anything else?)
Alexa enable/disable the Pin Number for (thermostats, doors, locks, security, etc.) This command activates the pin number to prevent unauthorized use of voice activated commands.
ONLY for PROFILEs Control: Alexa disable/enable audio. This command cancels (mutes) the audio output on remote speakers (very useful for “quiet time” - when no notifications or messages are wanted in bedrooms, for example)
…and more
*these settings are also available in the mobile app for those who like to change settings using a phone.
