I have had a Homey Pro 2023 for just a few days, I’m very excited about the flows, but still an absolute beginner and I’m not really getting any further with using voice commands, despite searching on this and other places. What I would like to achieve is the following: When I wake up, I say to th…

For speech on Google: App you need: Cast a text to Google App for Homey | Homey works directly (only fill in the card) Also possible: Google Services App for Homey | Homey but needs setting up. First one very straightforward. Just a need to add a action card (Then…)

Weather apps: try Homey App Store Some apps: KNMI (official) or Open weather

But to be honest: all those things you want your Google to say; maybe best way may be use Google routines :thinking: :blush: But it is fun to play around with Homey. Anyway: you have to start with Google-routine. You need to add an action (Smart-home devices → Scenes → choose a flow) Flows you wa…

At the moment, I am indeed using a Google routine, more or less as shown by @Hielke_de_Jong . It works, but I’d like to go ‘native’ and use Homey. I definitely need to delve more into the available variables. @Peter_Kawa ; how did you manage to get the variables you used? I can include ‘weer’ as a v…
