The main use case in our house for Alexa is sending announcements between rooms. But for a few months now, it hasn’t worked properly.
I will say: “Alexa, send an announcement”. But 50% of the time, instead of prompting me for the announcement, it will play me saying “Send an announcement” around the house.
I wonder if anyone else has had this issue, or if it’s just me?
- Dnguyen 2y agoWorks well for us by saying, Alexa, announce ...
- calamity_elf 2y agothen half the time for us it will not hear the announcement, so we say 'alexa announce' again, and it announces "ALEXA ANNOUNCE" all over the house.
- 0898 2y agoThis is what’s happening to us.
- Domenic_S 2y agoSame, announcements are kind of flaky. My usual command is "Alexa, announce <whatever to announce>" - half the time she asks what I want to announce, 20% of the time she announces "announce", 30% of the time it works as expected. If i'm already on my phone sometimes I'll just type the announcement in the Alexa app instead.
- Chico75 2y agoSame exact thing, now we know that we have to say the full announcement the second time we trigger Alexa.
