Title: Automatic voice notifications
Post by: mikeed on November 19, 2018, 02:35:42 am

Hi Everybody,
Is it possible to create automatic voice notification at specific time e.g. to get each morning 6 AM weather forecast or reading from temperature sensor (similar to reminder)? 
Thanks

Hi  Mike,

You need to set up what's called a routine.  Just have a google on setting up Alexa routines.

Routines are great.  I have a few set up for various lights to come on in the morning, give me a weather report and start playing a radio station etc.

You can even tell it to say anything you like.  I went through a phase of "Wake up you lazy sh*t" and the like  ;D
