## Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

**Why doesn’t alexa voice work?**

You are connected to the wrong ‘server’, you can go to the settings, disconnect and try one of the other servers (US,EU,AU). Just because you live in a geo location, doesn’t mean that where you first signed up your devices. (Originally only the US server existed).

**Can I add a new alexa device?**

Most devices will automatically be supported when they are released, not all devices which show up will work. Let me know if I device doesnt work and ill block it so others dont get confused.

**Will there be support for X?**

See above

**Whats next?**

- More smart home device types, perhaps thermostat.
- Poll Alexa for changes to a smart home device and Sync the ‘state’ with Homey.
- Ability to trigger alexa scenes from with in a flow.
- Investigate homey reset causing loss of TTS
- Add Flow trigger, when alexa hears a specific set of words.
- Arm/Disarm alexa guard.

**Can you add feature X or Y**

Long Answer : If you cant do it through the alexa website [alexa.amazon.com](http://alexa.amazon.com) or worse case the alexa phone app. Then no I can not add it. If you can do it through the app, check out whether its in “whats next” list above. If its not, the I doubt it, but you can ask.

Short Answer : I Doubt it.

**Why don’t my routines show in the flow action**

For a routine to show, it must be given a name with in the alexa app.

**Why does the app stop working?**

There could be a couple of reasons for this, the most common is that you have set homey to restart nightly/weekly and this is causing the app to not reconnect.
