Title: Increase and Decrease volume
Post by: RobertinHerts on April 01, 2017, 11:57:09 am

Previously, strangely, Alexa didn't understand "Increase volume" and "Decrease volume" which was frustrating. However it does now 8)

Another command that will work for volume is "Alexa, turn it up" or "Alexa, turn it down". This will increase or decrease the volume by one notch.

Yes "Alexa, turn it up" or "Alexa, turn it down" was in the official list, but it's not natural to me. Like I would never say "Flash briefing".

Nothing about this stuff is "natural".  Get over it, and learn the Alexa lingo.

"Alexa, volume up" or "Alexa, volume 8" (max is 11).
