The entire Alexa system is terrible. I constantly have issues with giving commands, only to hear Alexa say "Blah blah is offline". I can give the same command to Google Home and it is done successfully. Sometimes, I can give Alexa the same command 5 seconds after and it works.

I had commands to turn on lights in the morning but deleted them all from the app. Alexa still turns my lights on at the same times. I can't get it to stop running these routines.

I recently moved to a new town, created a new "Home" on the app. I do not have all the same devices I used to have, but Alexa still "finds" devices I had at the previous address and adds them. Of course, they don't work because they don't exist, but Alexa doesn't care.

All these issues stem from the fact that Amazon keeps all this information on their servers and deleting or changing things in the app doesn't always get done on the servers. This is why they want us to re-register our accounts because it deletes the old information and starts over.

I have an Nvidia Shield Pro and nothing will make it work with Alexa. I've done everything correctly and the skill links correctly and Alexa says it will work, but any command results in "Nvidia Shield is not responding".

Since I can control Shield using Google Home from my phone or even from my $13.99 smart watch (through Google), I'm thinking of making a switch of hardware.

The only thing I can think of is that one plug is still a "plug" and the other has been designated a "light"

in Alexa, in each of the device settings for each of the plugs, have a look at the "Type" and check to see that both plugs are still "plug" or have been designated "light"

Good Luck!

Set a timer adding or subtracting the time difference for the country in question.

To the two previous replies, thanks for thinking about this. However, a doorbell event goes to the iPhone AND the Echo; a motion event goes to the iPhone and does NOT go to the Echo.  Wyze gets 3 out of 4 correct. They're only missing the motion event notification to the Echo. (And, yes, I have every event/notification box checked.) The communication paths are obviously there. So, is the problem on the Alexa Wyze skill or does the problem originate on the Wyze doorbell app?
