[APP][Pro] Alexa - Control your Amazon devices from Homey

[pedrinho7]

I’m on the same problem. Try to configure app, redirects me t0 192.168.X.XX:3068 and never loads… Any idea on solution this, @Jamie ?

Known Issues

• Smart devices added to homey will not sync there state, ie. they not show whether they are on/off correctly. - Likely involves polling once every 5 minutes to sync
• Media/Speaker capabilities will not work if a music group has been used with the speaker.
• If you don’t select the correct server to connect to, many features will not work or will be delayed.
• IF you have MFA turned on, and your connecting the app may show a ‘page not found’ error page.
  Solution: you must go into your Amazon account via web browser and enable 2 factor authentication. Then use an authenticator such as Google Authenticator, problem solved. Use the code that comes through the authenticator app, not the one that Amazon texts to you. Hope this helps.

i suspect it has to do with MFA. doesnt happen to me often but sometimes i need to configure the app on my PC. i’ve rarely needed to use incognito/inprivate mode on my browser.

So, while that did work, I still have another issue that I would like to throw in here. Don’t know if it’s related or not cause I’ve had it for a while. If I restart the Alexa app, OR restart Homey, the Alexa app will crash and restart every minute or so. I let it go overnight and in the morning it seemed to be fine. Of course after fixing this latest [login] issue, the restart issue is happening again (as we speak). Gonna let it go for a few hours and see if it rectifies itself. This is the Alexa app, not the Amazon Echo app, to be clear. Any ideas out there? Apologies if this is in the wrong place but I wanted to take advantage of the momentum the Login issue seems to have. Thanks.
