New SmartThings Alexa skill (2020)

@Lars

The voice integrations are pretty complex so there is a lot to talk about!

Any status update on the changes to allow users to select which devices are shared with Amazon Alexa and Google Home? It’s been a year since the new integrations were released, and about 8 months since it was mentioned that a fix was in the works…

Thanks @uberrob - this is helpful information. The team is working on an option to allow for selection of devices that are shared with GH and Alexa which sounds like it should resolve most of the issues you’re having by being able to point GH to the other native services for full functionality and lower latency with those devices. I really appreciate the detailed use case and constructive feedback.
