Title: Echo Spot: Do Not Disturb in Routine not dimming display
Post by: Scott_R on July 09, 2020, 07:34:23 pm

Hello. I set up a "goodnight" Routine in the Alexa app. It was intended to turn off the smart lights in a room and to turn off the Spot's display. So it has two actions: turn off a Group containing the smart lights, and Enable Do Not Disturb.

When I activate the routine the lights turn off but the Spot's display is completely unaffected; I can see no change. I've tried toggling the Night Mode clock setting, also without seeing any change. I I say "Alexa, Do Not Disturb" the crescent moon icon comes on, but there is no change to the brightness.

My goal is to turn off the display completely, not just dim it (not that I've done either); what could I be missing?
