Editor's Review

The Alexa app is the command center for your smart home. It's essential for setting up Echo devices, but it's also a powerful tool on its own. The 'Routines' feature is particularly powerful, allowing you to chain multiple actions to one phrase. The app interface can feel a bit cluttered due to the sheer number of features, but it gets the job done.

Who is this for?
