Amazon Alexa
Amazon Alexa has a feature called Daily Routine which enables users to group a group of separate commands into one command. Today we will introduce you to how and how to set this routine.
Using Amazon Alexa-powered Echo smart speaker is very simple, all you have to do to get any task done is ask Alexa for it.
For example, you can ask Alexa to turn off the bedroom lights and she will do so.
Or you can ask Alexa to wake you up at 7 a.m. to Bon Jovi songs and it will do so without a hitch.
But did you know that there’s a more efficient way to get household chores done with Alexa, one that doesn’t involve giving a bunch of commands one after another?
Well, for those who are not aware, Amazon Alexa has a feature called a routine which allows users to send a group of commands in a single command.
This feature is especially useful for periodic orders. For example, if your morning routine includes waking up at 7 a.m., turning on the lights, turning off the air conditioner and listening to morning news announcements, you can set a routine, where you can use a simple phrase to command these commands in one. By saying “Alexa, good morning” (or any other phrase you want) you can have Alexa do the above tasks and even more based on your settings.
