I am using the app with the same version number. It has the same options as the webpage but I haven't tried a sideload yet. Sent from my SGH-I257M using Tapatalk

How does an Amazon device get associated with a device then? I have the same as Stu. No amazon devices are listed. I have created groups with different names but only portal elements found, can be included. Sent from my SGH-I257M using Tapatalk

There is always posting them to a thread with what you want to do. Some of us love the logic challenge. Others do crossword puzzles.

My ISY finder does not boot automatically to the admin console either. This changed a few months back again. It has been back and forth over the last few years. Why? I don't know..possibly different java junks? You need to double click on the URL of your choice. If you do not have one then click the add button and add your IP address of your ISY.

Stusviews sets his options using a SmartHome Hub and uses with ISY until ISY gets full support added.

Motion sensors have no heartbeat and their battery low signal is very unreliable. It may trigger at weird times and your batteries will last for many months after or it probably will not trigger at all. I record all mine and keep a list. I have two of 11 units owned that have sent low battery signals about two months ago and neither one has quit working yet.,

Use the ISY Else sections of the programs so you would get. Alexa. Turn Off All Lights Alexa...turn Off Bedroom light I use many programs triple duty. The If section operates like a smart HA box choosing one of the Then/Else sections The Then section can be vocally tied to Alexa...turn ON..XXXX The Else section can be vocally tied to Alexa...Turn OFF..XXXX

Awesome! Wild guess though!

Have you tried? {"scene": "OVUdx2Nampq7lAD"} {"on": true, "scene": "OVUdx2Nampq7lAD"}

OK...by "programs" I assume you mean "Network resources"? Since I don't use any grouping / scenes on any device, except inside admin console and a few between Insteon devices, I don't know what else to tell you for this one. I would be sure somebody will be along soon that will be more knowledgable. You may have to use the advanced editor (bottom right) to modify your thread title into a question to attract those guys. EDIT:Sorry...long time thread. Maybe start a new one with a question for help.

Yeah it should but this happens a lot being more of a purebred google device. That's not the first app that was refused entry and won't be the last on that one. It's half crippled. That app was the original one I downloaded in NY with a clean tablet and no Google accounts known on it, yet. Once I installed my google email account I was locked out of the app again, even while in NY. I switched over to another Android 4.4.2 device and the amazon alexa app just doesn't show any device control pages and only The device/group/scene lists. There are no Echoes/Dots in any of the lists. Only ISY known devices. The Alexa app is the latest version also. This isn't the first time this has happened where Amazon releases permissions to my area months after everybody else. Postal code permission and Canadian address permission only showed up a week ago. Seems I will just have to wait for some time. I don't have that many rooms involved yet anyway so "Turn On Bedroom light" or "Turn on Red Bedroom Lights" is not bad for now.

Android v6.0 CT9223W97-ANDROID6.0-V57-V1.15.33

grrrr....... I wish these companies would stop these wars that only hurt the customers!I just removed the app from this tablet and now get this..

Welcome to the forums!! I assume you must be using the ISY Network Resources module to attempt this. Are your individual (or any) devices working using the same technique?

For some Canadians....this may not be possible yet as there is no Amazon devices you can link into groups...stand by. (I don't have Join-In available yet either)

I have none of those screens found on an apple, but I am running v1.24.3096.0, wherever it came from. Matter of fact I cannot operate devices from the Android app at all. There is no page like that, just a list of devices with their Insteon addresses.

Canadian Play store? I didn't know there was such a thing. Is this an auto-switch thing or do I have to change over to it?

Interesting! "Switch On/Off" works perfectly for Echo Dots also. It seems like only On/Off count here as "Switch" was never mentioned before. Maybe it is reading ISY's mind?

Definiitely running v3 and all that was followed. I a running the Alexa webpage app on a linux Chromium, windows 7 IE , windows 10 IE, and also android app. No icons or Alexa appliances available for grouping. It should be noted that on the bigger screen computers there is no app to be had and the webpages know I am in Canada. As per Stu I will have to go back ad check my Android app again. Thanks!

Are we all talking the same skill here? I have v3 installed, forgot and rediscovered all my devices several times. This sounds like it is confused with an Insteon group procedure. I have no Alexa devices that can be selected in the Amazon app or ISY Admin Console and I have no light bulb icons (no icons whatsoever anywhere) in the Alexa app either? My Echoes and Dots are not selectable smart home devices, according to the lists, to be selected for inclusion in a group. Where are the Amazon devices being found? BTW:There is going to be much confusion in the future because any ISY element that is not a device is found under the "Scene" tab. I don't use many scenes but all my links to programs are labelled as scenes too. Now we have Zwave scenes, groups, Insteon scenes, ISY scenes, and Alexa scenes and groups.

AI at it's finest! Don't ever let google find out you automated your toilets! They will be flushing them just before you get home every time, so they are fresh when you get there! LOL

My apologees! This thread is about the limitations of open / close vocals.

I haven't noticed any difference between v2 and v3 so I dont understand the fuss r any of the benefits either. Multiple rooms still require multiple accounts and no accounts links can be changed that I can find. I don't believe I use any scenes directly but only devices and programs. Many programs control scenes, some via variable value changes. Program Offs work just fine in the "Else" sections so that the vocal syntax works out properly eg: .....Alexa..turn off ALL LIGHTS. works fine in the program Else section, turning on my Off scene.

Motion sensor do communicate on the Insteon network. That is how they interact with other devices and ISY bi-bidirectionally, for almost every signal. When the MS sends out an On (= motion detected) another device sends back an ACK . When ISY sets up parameters the MS receives the settings and memorises them.
