I've tried out a bunch of voice assistant and smart home apps, and the Amazon Alexa app is one of the best I've used. It's got a ton of features that make controlling your Alexa devices a breeze. The setup process is pretty straightforward and the app does a great job of surfacing new skills and personalized recommendations. And sure, there's a learning curve if you're new to Alexa, but the app makes it manageable. My only real gripe is that it can be a bit slow and buggy at times, but nothing deal-breaking. Overall, it's a must-have if you're part of the Alexa ecosystem.

Description

I’ve been using the Amazon Alexa app for a while now and it’s honestly pretty great. Basically, it lets you control all your Alexa-enabled devices, like your Echo speakers, smart lights, locks, and more. You can use it to play music, get news and weather updates, set timers and alarms, and even control your smart home.

The app makes it super easy to set up new Alexa devices and manage them all in one place. And there’s a ton of stuff you can do – you can create routines to automate your smart home, check the status of your connected devices, and even discover new Alexa skills to enable. The more you use it, the more personalized it gets to your preferences.

Look, if you’ve got an Alexa setup at home, this app is a must-have. It’s not perfect – the learning curve can be a bit steep at first – but overall it does an awesome job of bringing all your Alexa magic to your fingertips. Definitely worth checking out.

I'm beginning to question the value of Alexa in my house. The 5 devices I have work great. It's the app that stinks. First, you took away the ability to...
