Anyone have Amazon Basics light switches available as devices using this app? I searched this topic but no luck on these switches specifically so I figured Iā€™d ask. I tried switching the device type from switch to light in the Alexa app, but that didnā€™t work. Any insights would be great. Love the app Jamie.

Hi sorry kinda new here.should the tile show now playing artist, song etc. I donā€™t see anything on the device tile. Even When I long press the now playing info is blank. If I start music by asking Alexa nothing seems to update. I can pause and start from the capabilities screen but no album art or artist info

Hope this makes sense

Hey @Jim_McAtear I just had a look on my system and the images, artists etc have all stopped for me as well ā€¦. It could be that sometime since I last updated the app Amazon have changed how their internal events work.

Iā€™ll check it out when I next work on the app.

First time i setup the app it found most of my kasa switch devices. 71/90 switches to be exact.

I tried to uninstall and re install and it now doesnā€™t see anything at all. Iā€™ve tried to factory reset homie, new Alexa account no success every time now it doesnā€™t see my kasa switches from Alexa. The Alexa app works fine for control on kasa switches.

one more thing to note, when i search for plugs it finds the 6 kasa plugs i have every time. so is it something Iā€™m not doing right with the light switches???

From my end it looks like the device should be showing up, what exaclty happens? If its a white screen with no devices ā€¦ then this is a bug with Homey. Contact support and let them know that the timeout on the pairing screen for the 2023 HomeyPro is shorter then the HP2019 and I have discussed this and it has not been fixed since March 2023.

(Try adding them via the web portal)

If its not a white screen, then sorry im not sure whats going on.

Hey Jamie,

Iā€™d love to get the Echo hub added onto the test version of your app.

I generated a quick SVG (converted from an image) for the device and Iā€™m happy to jump on a quick video call to get you whatever device IDs you need to register it.

Hi,
I installed Amazon Alexa APP. Iā€™m trying to add an Alexa device without result. As soon as I choose a device, Iā€™m asked to log to my Amazon profile. When the pop up opens, is very difficult to insert the code, because of continuous refresh, and when the code is inserted a message with paga not found appear.

Any idea?
Thankyou

Hello , i have the same problem

1743

Same here :slight_smile:

1744

I am also having the same issue as the posts above.

1745

Same problem, Page not found :cry:

1746

I had the same issue. Solution: you must go into your Amazon account via web browser and enable 2 factor authentication. I did this and ran it through my Google Authenticator and bam, problem solved. I was then able to integrate all my compatible Echo devices. Use the code that comes through the authenticator app, not the one that Amazon texts to you. Hope this helps.
