Nuked Amazon added a variety of Super Bowl-related skills and the ability to do home automation on its own. Today the company is telling us about some new alarm and covid skills that snuck under the radar.
You’ve been able to set custom alarms and alarm sounds using Alexa devices. Now you can do it with Minion sounds, if you have n’t been waking up angry enough.
Alarms can be set by saying’wake me up to clones/jurassic world/spongebob/etc alarm tone’. Some are free, some can be expanded with in-skill purchases, and some cost money, starting at $ 1.99.
The alarm sounds can be added by asking your Alexa device for them. You can also browse and add them in the Android version of the Alexa app.
Asking Alexa’where can I get tested for covid’ will make it read out a list of the nearby locations you can get tested at. You can then have Alexa call one of the locations if you want more information.
