If you’re wondering why your Echo Automation doesn’t seem to be working as it should, there are a few potential reasons. Here are some things to check:
1. Make sure your Echo Automation is turned on. You can do this by going into the Automation tab in the Echo app and tapping the switch next to Automation.
2. Make sure you’ve created at least one Automation. An Automation consists of a trigger (what will start the Automation) and an action (what the Automation will do). You can create Automations in the Automation tab in the Echo app.
3. Make sure the conditions for your Automation are met. For example, if you’ve created an Automation that turns on a light when you say “Alexa, turn on the light,” the Automation will only trigger when the light is off.
4. Make sure your devices are compatible with Echo Automation. Currently, Automations can only be created with Amazon-branded devices, such as Echo speakers, Fire TV, and Fire tablets.
5. Make sure your devices are properly connected to the internet. Automations require a connection to the internet in order to work.
If you’ve checked all of the above and your Automation still isn’t working, please contact customer support for further assistance.
