In general the troubleshooting steps if the app stops working are: 1. Go to the app settings 2. If connected → Disconnect 3. Reset 4. Restart the app 5. Go to settings and login again If you get the sad puppy make sure you have 2FA with an authenticator app set up ---

Hi. Had this app working flawlessly since it existed but this morning all my Echos stopped working. Tried to reset, reconnect to my account, installed the test version and finally reinstalled the app. But trying to connect with my Amazon avvount always gives the following error: Error: Proxy Server could not be initialized. Check Logs. Here is the log I created: a175f493-9d26-4c46-8d29-e8cdb70ab596 @staeff, hope you can help. ---

AWS is having a massive outage. Not related to my app. You just need to wait for Amazon to get their shit together. ---

I have trouble with this app now for some time. It disconnected and I cannot reconnect, it gives me a proxy error. It can not start the proxy. Tried restarting Homey, the app. Did the update to the test version. Still the same error. ---

Go into the settings, reset your connection, restart the app and try again to connect. ---

Also tried that, but found the solution. Disabled the other Alexa app (still had that running also). Then I could start the connection process. ---

Every morning I have an exclamation mark on the AMAZON ECHO icons and nothing works anymore. Restarting the app doesn"t help. I have to “Reset”, “Reconfigure” and log in again every time… Then it works until the next morning. ---

The other Alexa app is broken and it seems that developer has stopped maintaining the application. I tried to get this echo app working but when trying to connect the servers from configure it just says “error: Proxy server could not be initialized. Check Logs”. What i´m doing wrong? I tried every server. Edit. Now i did something and it started working 😃🫠 ---
