Our technical engineers at AcuRite have developed a skill for Amazon Echo that will make it even easier for you to interact with My AcuRite® and the environmental monitoring data your devices are reporting.

- It will prompt you to log in to your My AcuRite® account. Once you log in, it will revert back to the previous screen.
- SUCCESS! The My AcuRite Skill for Amazon Alexa is now enabled.
The My AcuRite® action allows you to get current readings and alerts from all of the devices you have connected to My AcuRite®.
Just ask Alexa:
"Ask My AcuRite® the outside _____"
• Temperature

If you have multiple devices on your My AcuRite account, simply say "Alexa, ask My AcuRite to list my devices" and Alexa will report conditions on your first device then ask if you want to hear another device. Alexa will report conditions from up to seven (7) devices connected to My AcuRite.
