Wyze Band + Alexa trigger?

Lifestyle

Okay. I know the Band has remote speaker functionality for Alexa. That was one of the main reasons for my purchase.

BUT, what I’d like to do is have a Shortcut on the band that when selected triggers a routine on Alexa.

Specifically, I hit a shortcut and have Alexa make a pre-programmed Announcement.

Say I have a routine set up on Alexa called “Medical Emergency” that when triggered sends an announcement to all my Echo Dots that I have an emergency in my room. Works fine, IF I can tell Alexa to trigger it. But could I trigger it from the Band’s Shortcuts menu?

If so, how? If not, can we get that added in a future firmware update?

The shortcuts are the ones within the Wyze app. Right now, there is no way to trigger an alexa routine unless you give the voice command.

It would be nice to see shortcuts for alexa routines, but I’m not sure if Amazon API allows that for third party apps.

It might be worth a shot to add this to the wishlist forum.
